Man, I sure do love this CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE

The fossil is not the animal.

The fossil is not the bones of the animal.

The fossil is the stone's memory of the bones of the animal.

And that's a poetry older than words.

I wonder if it's flaps would have sounded different considering that feathers on birds today can be very loud (I got so scared when a pigeon flew behind me one time). I wonder if someone could do a study on the flapping noises of extinct feathered dinosaurs cause I do wonder about stuff like that considering birds of prey have quiet flaps and microraptor could have flown and had a hawk like niche.

So apparently archaeopteryx flew like a pheasant…

First illustration of 2017! A generic dromaeosaur among some vaguely-researched prehistoric flora! It may still need some touch ups, but I’m proud of it.

Crabs amaze me. They’re the perfect life form, a tank made of legs and living hate-armor. It’s not just about their physicality, though; it’s the soul of the crab. See, no crab in the bottomless history of the sea has ever questioned itself, doubted itself, worried, or been afraid. A crab is pure motion. A crab is pure id and unrelenting forward force. Crabs invented the word violence and they will scuttle on the surface of the world while the red giant of Sol creeps closer to devour everywhere we’ve ever known. They will look into the sky and clack their claws and there will be no fear.
