I wish dinosaurs knew how famous they are now
@lolennui they are way more popular than asteroids
@lolennui It would probably just give them big heads. πŸ¦–
@lolennui welcome to Jurassic Park
@lolennui whenever I meet a bird I tell them, but honestly I think they think they're too cool for us.
@lolennui Charlie Pierce at Esquire has a feature in his last post of the week in which he links to some dinosaur news and says "they lived then to make us happy now." Maybe they know.
@lolennui Don't tell them about chickens
@lolennui In their place, knowing we’ll become famous the same way, would it be comforting? (I know, they were not whiners like us πŸ˜‚ )
@lolennui well birds do I think so that's kind of the same thing

@lolennui
I bet, every time they go past the bookshop, and see the brontosaur cousins on that lenticular ruler, they think they're pretty hot. πŸ¦•

(For all you young 'uns.. No, I'm not going to explain what a lenticular ruler is. This is a joke for old people.) 😜

@lolennui I actually heard that dinosaurs were pretty racist so probably for the best that they’re not around anymore.
@lolennui I mean ffs! Yes! Ph.d friends, pretend and say nice things?
