i think at this point, i'm D

at least C

Strong B right now, ask me after the weekend 😂

Oh definitely C 😭

Dave Hone had a fun discussion on his podcast at some point about the way pterosaur fossils, in particular, tend to be flattened, which has let to controversy in reconstruction.

I’d like to think I’m probably in B right now, hopefully not drifting into C quite yet but maybe with the head still attached

D or close enough to it

Z

allofit

Allo fit?

always

Oooh, I just love a good taphonomy illustration! [Also, probably C].

im the question mark in figure c

I'm completely mineralised and in the wrong stratum and I WILL mislead a generation of palaeontologists about how I lived

Very much at the head disarticulation stage!

Pollyanna B, but fighting for it...

Feeling like B as of now. Doing fine honestly.

E

I feel like I'm always somewhere around B. Sometimes C. (Also, I adore this diagram.)

I'm between D and E

I'm wherever that question mark following the head went. Whut happen. Ow. Rough landing.

im the leftward pointing arrow/question mark and head

D, approaching E

B — as the doctor assured that there is nothing fundamentally wrong, my head must still be attached. I’m sure he would have noticed.

A pretty solid D

Sadly, since May, it's been D.

C, because that question mark is doing a lot of

A lot. Just a lot.

Definitely E. I belong to the sediment.

D

D. it’s all starting to settle in.

I'm at like a C or D right now.

feeling closest to C

Secret answer F: Fossilized dinosaur poo

still she must #resist

Definitely a D But I dread I'm slowly heading to an E idk...

Feeling a solid B rn but that’s only because I have a habit of plugging me ears and going nananana I can’t hear all the fucked up shit happening

👍 🤞

As of late I have been "Stage 3 of the articulation-disarticulation sequence of skeleton decomposition. {Cockerellites liops with disarticulation progressing further, primarily in the anterior region of the fish." From Sullivan et al., 2012 tinyurl.com/ck9383j9

Or rather this - also from Sullivan et al., 2012

The goal is to be more like Holotype of Ferruaspis brocksi -in one piece. My fave fossil fish by the virtue of being only fossil vertebrate I have described www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

That's a GREAT fossil!

This one, yeh, its nice, we have found it during the 2020 (February) fieldseason at McGrath´s Flat in New South Wales

Care to share a link to a high resolution picture?

Its here, in the paper www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

That's amazing. Especially the melanophores and the stomach contents! Thank you!

This condition is mostly precipitated by writing a paper about a impact of the was and colonialism on Ukrainian vertebrate palaeo

I used to be a D, now I'm about B-C

I'm the head on C, screaming into the abyss.

E

I’m C

E. Definitely.

F

B or C, somewhere around there at least

It’s Wednesday evening. D is a little advanced.

Now imagining Titanic as a pterosaur...

I’m an F right now

I'm an artist and I just found out one of my favorite local bands used AI to create their latest album cover. so E.

Firm D

Floating around a solid C

Cats woke me up around 5 this morning. Only making it to D because of coffee.

E

D

c because my head is separating from my body and I don't know where it's going I'll never know

Mostly been C, but I spent most of yesterday evening meandering around the riverfront on my bike, so I’m up to B today.

Definitely D

C or D most days, if im lucky i will be a B.

Imma say an F

c seems in a perpetual state of alarm. feels rights

D resonates, yeah

I can C it might be time to head off by myself?

E.

D.5

F.

C for sure. every couple hours i’m reconsidering my options for life in the modern age
