Between ww2, clocks and 1800s palaeontologists I talk too much.

Brooche so pretty I have to make a tumblr post about it because I am NAWT over her. She may have been a tad more expensive than I’d usually pay but oh my god I couldn’t leave her…

Hi this is really random but I saw in your bio that you’re a fan of 1800s palaeontologists and I’m currently reading Impossible Monsters by Michael Taylor which is about that exact thing so I was wondering if you had a favourite one or just wanted to yap about the topic a bit? I know this is really out of the blue but the mince fandom is small and it was just a bit of a surprise

love the Hester track art as well!!

OOOOO THAT SOUNDS SO COOL IVE NEVER GOT TO READ IT MYSELF

I’m a massive fan of the bone wars and Edward drinker cope is my favourite palaeontologist as well as my reason to become a palaeontologist out of pure spite and hatred for him. My main part of liking them is purely from how PETTY these guys are like the fact that Richard Owen got Gideon mantell’s spine after he died because of pure hatred. THESE MEN ARE SO PETTY I FIND IT HILARIOUS.

I was also trying to write a musical based on the bone wars about a year back now but it ended up getting written by some American guys and AIGHHHH I WISH I COULDA SEEN IT I’m too British for this🥹💔
