#DinosaursandMOR had a great dinner presentation by Steve Brusatte last night. Always a pleasure to spend some time w/Steve, #AnneBrusatte & nice to meet their sun Anthony!

Congrats Natalia (and the Dearc team)!!!

A couple of guys discussing new Jurassic World plot lines and dinosaurs... With Jack Horner at Museum of the Rockies in Bozeman.
It's a true honor to follow in Jack's footsteps as the Jurassic World paleontology advisor. And he's always been encouraging and kind in welcoming me.

Hello Bozeman! Great to be in the heart of dinosaur country. There's no place quite like Museum of the Rockies and Anne Brusatte & I are excited to meet lots of fossil enthusiasts this weekend. And look at all those books!

Brachiosaurus sees us off to Bozeman. ⁦Anne Brusatte⁩ & I look forward to seeing everyone soon ⁦Museum of the Rockies⁩ for Dinosaurs and MOR!

Happy publication week to Jonathan Vigliotti 🐋, globetrotting CBS News correspondent and now author.
Personal, provocative, empathetic, and ultimately optimistic, his book is the perfect guide to what climate change actually means on the ground, to real people and communities.

I moved to Scotland in 2013, having only ever visited a few times.
The support I've gotten since from everyone The University of Edinburgh & School of GeoSciences @ University of Edinburgh has been tremendous.
And now, truly I feel it the greatest honour of my career to join the Royal Society of Edinburgh. Thank you all!!!

Distracted by food poisoning & failed to share this last week - our 200 years of #dinosaurs special!

What’s rarer than a total solar eclipse? A White Sox victory. May have to wait another 20 years for both.

Totality. Effingham, Illinois. 14:03 central time. (Forgive the simple phone camera)

200 years ago the first dinosaur was named, in England.
We're still finding new ones...in Scotland!
A pleasure for tom challands & me to join Victoria Gill 💙💛 on BBC Radio 4 Inside Science, talking about an exciting sauropod bone from Skye, found by Tone Blakesley

Checking out ⁦David Sepkoski⁩ ‘s unparalleled collection of books on paleontological history…
and discussing our respective next book projects!!

Southside Chicago death juice.
If you know it, you know.

As my doctorate crawled to an end, the five years of toil wouldn't be a success without an army of talented and kind people, elevating the papers, providing guidance and supervision, throughout. It takes a village of people to do science and a doctorate. 🧵

Wow UConn is awesome, maybe best college team in ages.
But just a humiliating loss for Illinois Men's Basketball . A few sad truths exposed. Underwood a poor in-game coach. Shannon & Hawkins far from elite NBA level talents.
Hope the young guys stay & one of these years they finally win it all

Not only will this be the worst Chicago White Sox team in my lifetime, but also the most boring.
0-162 still a possibility.

Let's meet in Montana! April 13. And you get dinner too.

Discussion of the Carthage Institute of Paleontology's existential crisis. Our academic program has attracted enough paleo students since 2013 for their combined tuition to cover the cost of the Preparator position, and, since 2017, the entire CIP budget. wgtd.org/playlist/morni…
