Any of the Hadrosauridae. Probably Lambeosaurus, specifically for the cover to one of the Dinotopia paperbacks:

More recently it has been determined that hadrosaur likely walked most frequently on all fours, with a larger tail. Still amazing looking creatures (credit to Gabriel Ugueto for the art):

I actually think that seasons 3&4 ruined the previous seasons. The issues presented in the later seasons were all present before then, but weren’t as obvious.

Reddit has had issues for years, that’s why so many of us are here.

Oh, you meant the aws thing.

You make the women in your life uncomfortable.

Those people did more than you this weekend. I’m sorry that trying to inspire change amounts to masturbation for you.

When you instigate violent change with a purely positive outcome and no ground-swell behind you, we’ll make you a statue. Until then, these protests will continue.

A lot of gatekeepers in the comments who seem to love the idea of a UBI, but hate any attempt to test the viability of one.

I think this is a great step towards proving the benefits of a UBI for the greater population. I believe supporting the arts is always a positive endeavour, so using them as the pilot program kills two birds with one stone. I think that randomising who gets to enter the pilot program may allow some people to game the system, but the benefits outweigh the possibility of one schyster scamming a paycheque. The lottery system stops this becoming a bonus for established or famous artists, and supports creatives in all areas.

All in all, this is a good thing, and the people who want “all or nothing” are short sighted.

“Oh my God! Oh my God! Oh my God!” he shouted, and then turned to his wife and children, who were sitting in the gallery. “I’m so sorry. I’m so sorry. We’ll be okay.”

Fuck around with people’s health and find out.

Dunbar testified that he was making $100,000 an episode, and was paid even for episodes in which his character did not appear.

According to imdb, there are roughly 70 episodes that ran before his firing. Even if he made half that an episode, the guy is set! No pity for the out of touch millionaire and his “religion”.

No, see, you don’t get it. God decided that I am worthy of living as a white male catholic in a country that hates women and minorities because I’m just a good person. Being poor or brown or female means you have some sort of moral failing. It’s truly justified that children die of starvation because God decided that they deserve it for being inherently evil. My white hands are tied.

Sure, but removing knowledge kind of goes against what creating a Wikipedia backup is about..

These articles really sound like they are written by people who want to suck on the toes of fascists.

They are already invading American cities and disappearing innocent people.

Could they use the protests as a reason to kick off more horror? Sure.

Are they going to kick off more horrors regardless of this protest? Absolutely.

Staying home and toeing the nazi line isn’t going to stop them from seizing more and more power, so why not get out there and let your fellow man know that you stand with them against tyranny?

The fun with contract work is that there are often laws in place to protect the employee, but there’s always some caveat that the employer can use to just not extend the contract anymore.

In Australia the law is that you can only extend a contract worker once, with what I assume is the intention that you would then hire them permanently if you liked their work enough to extend them. What actually ends up happening is that contract workers are now looking for jobs more often because companies LOVE contract workers, but hate the idea of offering anyone a permanent position. It’s cheaper for them to roll through inexperienced contractors.
