As a former dinosaur kid, this is frickin awesome

Here’s one good thing to come out of 2020:

Paleontologists completed a life-sized replica of Sue, the most complete T. Rex ever found.

And she is freaking GORGEOUS!

As I read more about this beauty, I found out some new details regarding things I thought I previously knew about the beast that was Tyrannosaurus Rex, and I’m going to share them with you.

First, and most obvious, her size:

This is nothing new, we all figured T. Rex was big, but I for one never stopped to consider exactly how big it was. Nobody ever really knows what to imagine when they read about something the size of a whale that walked around and ate everything it could kill. 

Speaking of eating things, I just want to remind you all that T. Rex had–by miles–the strongest bite of any terrestrial animal living or dead, somewhere around six and a half tons of force. That’s over six times greater than the current estimate of what Allosaurus was capable of, and three times what was delivered by the highest measured reading of the living title holder–the estuarine crocodile. It didn’t have to waste time swinging its head open-mouthed like Saurophaganax for a little extra oomph, or grow fancy serrated teeth like Carcharodontosaurus to cut pieces out of its prey. It opted for the simplest approach: get its mouth around something and crush it to death; imagine the full weight of an elephant on whatever was between this thing’s jaws.

“How did it find something to eat?” I hear you asking. “It can’t see something if it doesn’t move, right?”

Listen, I love Jurassic Park too, but that’s a big crock of shit.

Notice how both her eyes face forward. That gives her binocular vision (the ability to focus both eyes on one target, like you and I). More importantly it means she has impeccable depth perception due to overlapping fields of vision from each, large, eyeball. Researchers agree that T. Rex not only had incredible vision, but that it was probably better than most modern animals–including eagles, hawks, and owls–and that she could likely spot something three and a half miles away. If something that big can see that well, it doesn’t matter if you move or not, she’d be able to tell if it was an animal trying to hide or a piece of vegetation. So pray she isn’t hungry if she lays eyes on you. And even if by some miracle she didn’t see you, she’d still smell you. 

If she decided you looked tasty, you probably wouldn’t hear her coming as much as you’d feel her. Modern science indicates that T. Rex didn’t roar like in Jurassic Park, but rather bellowed or maybe even hissed like crocodilians. If she were on to you, you’d most likely feel this sense of unease creep up your spine as a low-pitched rumble in the air permeated through you. You wouldn’t know what it was or where it was coming from until you hear her footfalls. By then it’s too late–you could try to run but she’d probably catch you. There’s plenty on YouTube that reconstructs what T. Rex may have sounded like, and it’s legitimately haunting.  

To wrap all of this up, the one bit of good that came out of the cursed year that is 2020 is that this wonderful child of science and art came into the world, and reaffirmed my respect and admiration for the eight ton slab of muscle and teeth that is this magnificent creature.

…and it is nothing if not magnificent.

tf did mike do

Reasons why I hate Micheal Wheeler with a passion

he is probably very homophobic 

He is such a little bitch to will. 

He constantly ignores everyone for his Own needs

Lied to el about his grandma dying

Would lose something you let him borrow and then blame it on you

Gaslighter but not Girlboss

He is so focused on el he doesn’t give a shit about anyone else

He was sucking face with el- Literally she barely has any social awareness of the world cause she grew up in a lab and idk. It felt very manipulative 

Has a hot mom that tried to sleep with Billy 

Stupid haircut

Oh my god he’s Litterally so annoying. The scene where they go to scoops to sneak into a  Movie and he rings the bell a million times- I want to take that bell and shove it up his a-

At the end of every season he “learns his lesson” and goes back to being a prick the next

“Friends don’t lie” then lies to el about FUCKING EVERYTHING

probably smells like a gym locker 

Treats max like shit when she was joining the group even though she was just being friendly

In season one Lucas got mad at mike for letting el join the group, but then he gets mad at Lucas for letting max join? Very hypocritical 

Treats el like she couldn’t make her own decisions 

HES SO FUCKING STUPID LITTERALLY IF HE JUST SAID I LOVE YOU TO EL-

“It’s not my fault you don’t like girls” 🚩 

I could be a better boyfriend than him

will literally begged him to play dnd with him for a whole season and he got annoyed and wouldn’t play but the minute will leaves he joins a dnd club???

he tells el INFRONT OF WILL that the best day of his life was the day he met her. (A.k.a the day after Will went to the upside down, so probably the worst day of his life) knowing will had gone missing that day and went through so much trauma. but mike met el right? 😁

The worst ship in the show is anyone x mike because it is bound to be toxic

He wore socks with sandals 

Mike wheeler is the type of person to insist that steak is only cooked when it’s well done and completely dried out and Slathered in ketchup

Probably has his hot mom clean his room and cook for him even when he’s a teen

Literally ignored Will crying in the van

Talked about hopper losing weight as if he probably wasn’t self conscious bout it? 

FORGOT WILLS BIRTHDAY AND MADE EL CRY

Just to clarify this has nothing do with the actor, he’s amazing.

Roger Taylor Pregnancy Headcanons/Timeline

(Part 3: The Pregnancy)

A/N: So this took forever. I have not written at all and now I’m on winter break. However, I have been with family and I don’t really like to write around people. So, writing is very difficult with a constantly full house. Thank you for your patience, here it is.

First Trimester:

Roger would 10/10 be protective

In the first trimester he would constantly be worried about you

He would be very specific about what other people could eat around you (for fear of you getting sick)

He insisted that you do no vigorous activity because he didn’t want you to get hurt

Plus, you thought he was overly jealous and protective before you got pregnant?

Now someone could look at you oddly and he was ready to snap their neck

He was so excited for you to grow a bump and he would almost always (consciously or unconsciously) have a hand on your stomach

He was always so excited and told just about anyone he could

Second Trimester

After around the 4 month mark, the pregnancy really started to sink in

You guys were going to have a baby to take care of in less than 6 months

However, this never stopped him from being ecstatic about starting a family with you

You guys didn’t end up finding out the gender yet ( A/N: I didn’t want to limtit y’all. Pick whatever you want.)

Even though Roger argued with you, you wanted to be surprised

Your mood swings were so abrupt and aggressive that Roger could barely keep up with them

Being the drama queen that he is, Roger would just end up in whatever mood you were in and I t was not pretty when this occurred

He also practically worshipped your bump

He loved it

He would talk to it all the time and would always have a hand on it

You guys started baby shopping around this time and he couldn’t figure out for the life of him why it was that furniture was so difficult to put together

“It’s for such a small person, why must it be so complicated?”

Roger really just couldn’t wait for your baby to arrive

Third Trimester

When the guys decided that you didn’t already have enough baby things, they took a little shopping trips

Having 3 grown men show up randomly at your home with huge bags of baby things was quite a shock to you

Especially because they showed up around 7 in the morning

Things happening at odd hours became normal during this time

Everyone suddenly got more protective of you (if that was even possible)

Roger would barely let you leave the house

And if he decided you were able to escape that day, he would have one of the guys or your friends be with you at all times

All in all, Roger was a nervous wreck

He was going to be a parent and he was going mental about how bad of a dad he might be

He constantly made sure that you were happy, comfortable, and fed

He painted and decorated the baby’s room, he packed the hospital bag

He wouldn’t even let you leave the couch without assistance

Roger felt as though he had to prove himself in some way

When he finally came home crying one day, he told you how terrified he was about not knowing what to do

“Rog, you’ve overworking yourself because you have no clue about being a parent? No one knows exactly what to do with a first kid. You can’t excpect so much out of yourself, it’s too much pressure.”

“God I love you.”

“I love you too.”

Roger calmed down about proving himself as a father

However, he didn’t stop being over protective of you (bless your patience)

You know the saying “calm before the storm”

Yeah well that applied perfectly to your scenario

Because you see, once you told Roger that you were having contractions

All hell broke loose

ITS APRIL 13 YOU KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS
