To err is human; to be awesome, robot.
I'm a 26-year-old, Canadian woman-girl living in Japan. I like art, video games, science and being generally clever. Sometimes I post my own art but mostly I reblog the inspiring things I find.

My new dinosaur necklace. (Taken with Instagram)
Oviraptor Philoceratops(“Egg Thief” and “Lover of Ceratopsians”)
Lived: The late Cretaceous period.
Size: 2 meters and 30 kilograms.
About:
The Oviraptor P. was derived from the discovery of its fossils near what was considered to be a nest of Protoceratops eggs. However, it is now believed that the nest, in fact, belonged to the Oviraptor itself and the condemning name only sullies the good image of this small Mongolian (motherly) theropod. Further studies shows that its beak was used to crack mollusks (not eggs!) and its body was covered in feathers.
A new dino after a way-too-long hiatus. Enjoy a little dino in your day!
Leaellynasaura (“Leaellyn’s Lizard”)
Lived: The early Cretaceous period.
Size: 2 to 3 meters.
About:
The Leaellynasaura was found in Australia which was located in the Antarctic circle during the Cretaceous period. The long dark winters would explain why this dino developed relatively large eyes and good eyesight. Its tail was about three times the length of its body.
Edmontosaurus (“Edmonton Lizard”)
Lived: The late Cretaceous period.
Size: 13 meters and 4 metric tons.
About:
This dinosaur was among the last large dinosaurs, along with the Tyrannosaurus Rex, to live on the earth. I like to think about what it would be like if even just one dinosaur, maybe a nice Edmontosaurus, had survived in their ancient forms. It’s a herbivore with a toothless, duckbill-shaped mouth that could switch between bipedal and quadrupedal movement. More than likely, these dinosaurs traveled in herds.
Bulbasaur
Lived: The Modern era (1996 - present).
Size: 2 feet and 4 inches and 15.2 pounds.
About:
Since its name ends in a “-saur” suffix, we can only assume that Bulbasaur is a dinosaur of sorts. One of the three starters from the two best Pokemon games in the series.
I finally got around to fulfilling the dinosaur-like Pokemon request I received back when I started dino-a-day.
Why can’t there be a dinosaur theme park where nothing goes wrong!?
Carnotaurus (“Meat-eating Bull”)
Size: 8 m and between 1488 kg and 2626 kg.
Lived: The late Cretaceous period.
About:
The Carnotaurus’s key features are its large bull-like horns and teeny-tiny arms (smaller than a T-rex’s arms even!).
