I suppose I wouldn’t really need it though. I already win every time. Maybe what we need is a second Deinonychus to show Ostrom the ropes!

Have you seen the movie "Night at the Museum"? Can you compare it to the events happening in your museum ?

Are you allowed to leave the museum grounds?

We museum exhibits are free to leave after the museum closes, but there is not much point because everywhere else is also closed. That is time much better spent on plotting my next plan to take over the museum.
Besides, moving around takes too much work for me.
u know what … i changed my mind… all u scientists out there who worked ur butts off just to have your research purposefully ignored by the government… do your science thing and bring back the dinosaurs… catch them ignoring you when a velociraptor is our next president…. like ding dong what’s that? it’s science, it doesn’t care about your silly ignorant opinion… it’s back with a vengeance… and it’s hungry, bitch
And I’ll be here to welcome our new Mesozoic overlords.
You guys have had a velociraptorine ready to be your leader all this time, and you choose the one whose response to a global threat is saying gibberish rather than building a death laser? Unbelievable.

Hold it right there, Skull. We already established that giving you a ton of power is a terrible idea.
Rather than acknowledge any current events that might be happening today, let’s get a thread going
Reblog this post and add a picture of a dinosaur. Any dinosaur will do. Is it a descendant of the most recent common ancestor of Megalosaurus and Iguanodon? Then great! Add it to the post. Birds, raptors, ceratopsians, hadrosaurs, even titanosaurs - just add a dinosaur. A good, friendly terrible lizard (because truly, they are terrible at being lizards. Good at being birds, though.)
I’ll start
The plot is Pleasant with new Pheasants (by @ryuukibart)
The littlest auk, smaller than the puffin.
Hmm yes, I approve of this indulgence. Here is a throwback to our latest big adventure. There were lasers and cannons and visitors from another dimension (as pictured below); it was all quite exciting.
We were shocked by the fact that Skull had built a giant mech in his own image and secretly stashed it away in the museum, but in retrospect it was exactly the kind of thing he would do.
Anyhow, Skull went a little power-crazy but everything was okay in the end.
Here we have it. The Non-Neornithean Theropod Quadrant. Everything but the last two were determined by the most number of votes for that category; the last two were two of some of the other largely-voted-for theropods that were significantly different from the others that were placed in the Quadrant.
The Sauropodomorph Survey will go up on Sunday.

Or whatever your fancy new name is. Palaeoblr, is it? In any case, if you were hoping that I’ve already forgotten what happened last year: I haven’t.
Sometimes I wonder why I even bothered to join you all, really…
