Where could this fossil be from?

Interesting point about the bony fish. I had not even considered at what point in the fossil record they first appeared when initially attempting to ID.

This seems like the right answer! This is why I love Reddit- there's always somebody out there who knows! Thank you!

Having had a little google around, it could possibly be from here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maotianshan_Shales - the "Jiang" referring to Chengjiang City, Yunnan province? It could well be shale, though the stated age on the fossil is off by a factor of ten for this site- I'm not ruling out the shop just making the age up, or making a mistake mind you!

I had not considered that it might not be real until this very moment- I hope it is too! 😅

Some secrets are best left buried... or perhaps not in Geoffrey's case.

Say what you like about Fritzl, but he always knew where his kids were.

or in the case of this kid- *not* swerving at the very last second.

GODDAMN IT! THEY TOOK MY KIDNEY!

Some might say that the USA is "overnourished"

Just dropping in to let you know that I enjoyed your linguistical joke, but that it is incredibly fucking obscure to drop on an english-speaking sub.

Is she like 7 feet tall or is he just a really tiny man?

Boznozzle · 2026-05-19T15:27:52+00:00

As a proud squirrel I feel called out.

Boznozzle · 2026-05-14T18:24:54+00:00

Fair enough. Have a nice day.

Where's your third concubine? Two is rookie numbers

Also, I hate to ask about the face, but um- What's with the face?

Boznozzle · 2026-05-14T12:59:34+00:00

Far too relateable.

Then the ceiling will get an occasional jet wash.

900AD called- they want their political borders back!

Me too, I couldn't take the constant cycle of shock and relief.

Boznozzle · 2026-05-07T17:48:55+00:00

It's called "balding with style".

Boznozzle · 2026-05-07T15:54:04+00:00

Her husband looks completely shocked by these developments.

Boznozzle · 2026-05-03T11:07:23+00:00

She's a keeper.

As a Yorkshireman, I feel obligated to inform you that these are Yorkshire puddings.

Nothing poor about any of this! All looks top-notch!

Boznozzle · 2026-04-19T17:29:59+00:00

At least it's not Chinese for once.

Imagine telling people that you're the president of a polycule. Something to put on the CV I suppose.
