first one is a little too real imo

these are really nice additions

i like that last one because imagine getting murdered, and then just by chance it happens to be the real End of the World at the same moment

or imagine being murderer (aka predator animal trying to survive) and it's the end of the world right after you kill the other dino friend. you'd be like "is god punishing the world for what i did? how important am i?"

I'm having trouble fitting some of these clauses into the John Lennon song

It's easy if you try.

the clauses are correct, it is j. lennon who was wrong

65.6 millin years ago

I like the asshole mammals in the first one. Also I regret not arranging them in story order - brontos, then "millin", then death eternal.

"I like the asshole mammals in the first one."

just celebrating the end of the 100 million years war!

this thread is a blessing

"I like the asshole mammals in the first one."

Proto-mellivora capensis don't care.

I think that one is probably more like "Damnit! I was just about to eat!"

the last one is very "For all my powers, I could not save _____": An image thread

i've been thinking about the atlantic article upthread about the 'bad weekend' theory and the deccan volcanoes and the 72-year-old woman at princeton every day since i read it two weeks ago.

readable (subs only) LRB piece abt the event, complete with nice pictures: https://www.lrb.co.uk/v41/n01/francis-gooding/what-lives-and-what-dies

feathered microraptor^^^ (or more correctly "chinese dragon") from liaoning fossil beds in north-eastern china

v fancy lad

Was just at the museum of natural history earlier last week and clearly I don’t know much about dinos because I was amazed that some had feathers!

that t-rex was basically a hu-u-uge hen with teeth makes the mother much more scarier imo.

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."

it's better to burn out than to fade away

I bought one of these the other day, have not consumed yet:

big mood tbh

kind of lol, mostly sad

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.

this thread is better and jake vig can bug-off

It's morning in dino-America.

Those opening paragraphs are a real eye-opener.
