THREAD: What is going on in #Lützerath?
In Germany, a small village next to a giant coal mine has advanced to become an epicenter of the global struggle for climate justice. Today the eviction of the the village has started. But this is not "just" about a single village. 1/

Vertebrate paleo peeps! The Whitney Lab is recruiting a Master's student for the fall of 2023! If you or someone you know is interested in cutting up fossils, contributing to data addition, and taking pretty photos like this, DM me. You can also find me at #SVP2022 this year!
Dear @SVP_vertpaleo, despite being scheduled for a talk, I will not be attending #2022SVP (or #SVP2022, whichever is more in vogue), a “choice” I have been forced to make b/c of the inaction of the society regarding Robert Reisz. Let’s unpack for #FossilFriday shall we?
Hey, friends, we just gave our company to planet Earth. OK, it’s more nuanced than that, but we’re closed today to celebrate this new plan to save our one and only home. We’ll be back online tomorrow.

Dr. Christian Kammerer, Research Curator for Paleontology, together with scientists from Germany, South Africa and Chicago, studied a 260-million-year-old fossil that shows its breastbone was divided into a series of segments, like that of modern mammals.
