1. Yessssss!!!! When I was a little girl I wanted to become an archeologist. I’ve always been fascinated with fossils, artifacts, and cargo pants. Unfortunately, my parents told me archeologists don’t make any money…so I became a writer. This shouldn’t reflect poorly on my parents (my life choices - or squashing of dreams) because honestly, I wanted to be a lot of things as a child - a nun (who is still allowed to shop), a dictator (guillotine re-instated), and on Broadway. Let’s just say guidance is what I needed, but that little archeologist inside of me gets to come out every morning I wake up - because my homepage is National Geographic! And check this out! MONSTER DOLPHIN! -E (via New Sea Monster Found, Rewrites Evolution?)

    Evolution is not sure why you’re so obsessed with finding “aliens.” I mean, it already made the stalk-eyed fly.

    You’re welcome. -b

  4. maikeplenzke: Okay here is anothe illo for Ten Paces and Draw. It was actually a fashion swap, but the costume that I got to draw was so unconventional (you will see when you go to the website) that I couldn’t just draw a pretty girl with a lovely dress. So it became a kind of sea monster who disguises as a coral to catch cute fishes. It doesn’t fit in the slideshow of the fashion swap though. Sorry!But it was fun again, as always. Head over to Ten Paces and Draw to see the other participants’ illustrations! Phenomenal. -b

  10. Primates know what’s up: they make up after fighting and they prioritize fairness! I think “morality” is the wrong word (definitely cooperation) but it’s a really fun Tedtalk. Click here to skip to the punchline. Also this is the best type of science to present, the story tells itself and at worst it’s videos of adorable animals. -b
