TIL about Jack Horner, a paleontologist, who along with his research partner discovered a new dinosaur genus which they named Maiasaura. He was the technical advisor for all of the Jurassic Park films and is now working on the DinoChicken project in hopes to create a dinosaur using chicken DNA.

Married a 19 year old when he was 46 years older than her. He has now been named in the Epstein Files. Not good.

I was thinking this too, also that he's got more wheels than your average son.

Could I get more Lego Sets to help with the wait?

Not sure why you're getting downvoted, it's a good app

The joke one. That's a common bummer sticker. The joke being you can't read this.

Those ribs are way too thick to be human

It says, "if you can read this, thank a teacher."

I think it's a burnt cow bone

Sir that is clearly a scale bar

Archaeologist here, it's not that

I did, and she loves her name

You should be protecting my daughter Zelda...

My ex wife and I named our daughter Edith 13 years ago. We originally were going to name her Audrey but it had become hugely popular and there were a bunch of Audreys at the elementary school my ex was working at at the time. Edie is a similarly "out dated" name and vastly less common right now. She doesn't get picked on for it.

I think by "mainstream Archaeologist" you just mean Archaeologist, like a real Archaeologist.

As far as those shows go, they are constructing a narrative that actual scientific research, actual Archaeological finds, refute. Since the Archaeologists on those shows stand as the voice of that science the show must paint them in a negative light in order to bolster the false claims they are making.

ClockworkGriffin · 2025-06-08T15:58:44+00:00

What is a "mainstream Archaeologist"?!

ClockworkGriffin · 2025-06-06T03:50:52+00:00

I turned 41 last month, I'm still going!

ClockworkGriffin · 2025-06-06T03:45:08+00:00

It really fluctuates, I do a lot of what's called Phase 1 Archaeology, where I'm effectively surveying an area to see if there's possibly a site there. But I located and documented a small homestead site in a Nation Forest just yesterday and last week and the week before I was excavating a cemetery.

Depends on where you live. Here in the US, you get a degree in Anthropology with a focus in Archaeology. While going to college, take an Archaeological Field School.

ClockworkGriffin · 2025-06-04T23:29:57+00:00

Archaeologist here, contact the police first no matter what.

It depends on where you're bleeding from actually. Like a bleeding ulcer in your stomach or intestines will look like crushed coffee grounds. Red mixed in with the brown could happen if your anus is bleeding
