Our paper describing a new crested anhanguerian pterosaur from the Lower Cretaceous Toolebuc Fm of NW Qld is out today in @JVP_vertpaleo. Thapunngaka means 'spear mouth' in Wanamara, the language of the people on whose Country the fossils were found. #UQ

Thanks @readfearn for exposing Australia’s deals @UNESCO. Spanish Ambassador admits Spain voted to keep Reef off In Danger list in exchange for Aust voting for WH listing of Paseo del Prado contrary to expert advice. #Grubby#auspol
One example: at a family wedding I was 14 yrs old and 3 men in the 20s approached me. They kept asking me on a date with them and generally making me uncomfortable.
Luckily my adult relatives saw my situation and rescued me
This stuff is very common for teenage girls
I've experienced this kind of harassment as a teenager. It is very frightening because you don't know what the man wants or what they'll do or how to get them to go away
Leave young girls alone! They are vulnerable and don't have the resources of adults.
