this Painting features single or multiple panels displaying a beautiful Meteorite falling on the earth at dinosaurs age killing them. Perfect for dinosaur lovers.

That's pretty fucking insensitive IMO. Tone-deaf at best.

Imagine "This Painting of John Wilkes Booth is the perfect gift for Abraham Lincoln fans."

"Japanophiles adore our Mushroom Cloud Lithographs."

"Baby seal lovers are raving about our Bloody Club Replicas."

In every artist's depiction of a meteor that caused the extinction of the dinosaurs, there's always one T-Rex looking up at it like "That can’t be good." pic.twitter.com/AoOZYe0hzc

This recent (great) New Yorker piece made me think of this thread:

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2019/04/08/the-day-the-dinosaurs-died

Those opening paragraphs are a real eye-opener.

one in the face for the "meh, it was the Deccan mega-eruptions that took out the dinosaurs" crew. Even though that fucker there was obv much bigger than the chicxulub impact.

apparently if you want to have a better understanding of all the recent scientific advances in palaeontology then Micheal J. Benton's The Dinosaurs Rediscovered is your book.

That's ridiculous, how would a t-rex even use toilet paper

the tail wasn't used for the purpose of balancing, some researchers are saying

Karl Malone, Tuesday, 10 March 2020 20:47 (six years ago)

well obviously they just had to click their talons and a stressed looking edmontosaurus or some other from the precariat/lunch class of dinos would dutifully scamper to the local shitpit to wipe their arse for them with some 2 ply leaves!
