Thank you SO MUCH to Nick Schofield and everyone at Love in the Time of Chasmosaurs for letting me ramble about everything "paleo", from art to memes.

As many of you are probably aware, paleoartist Brian Engh recently began a dialogue on Twitter in response to what he felt was a rampant issue in the paleoart and paleontology community: negativity and hostility couched in criticisms that are often far too harsh and even personal. Here's a link to his initial thread: https://twitter.com/GreyGriffon/status/1115749709690359809 In response to this, many other artists chimed in with their opinions and personal experience, as well as their ideas for how to improve this situation.
