Dr. Howard Falcon-Lang, a paleontologist at Royal Holloway, University of London, said Tuesday that he stumbled upon the glass slides containing the fossils in an old wooden cabinet that had been shoved in a “gloomy corner” of...

My bad!
I didn’t realize that I saved the posts instead of queuing them, I’ll post them all immediately.
I've got four posts for you today!
Sorry I was a bad person and slept through tuesday, I was fixing my sleep cycle so it’d be good for Wednesday. That said, I am going to sleep for a bit, but I’ll get the posts prepared.
