    The concept of timezones is fine, we need a way to differentiate when days start so its a bit silly for everyone to go off of UTC or any other clock, how are you going to track the exact date, is half the world just going to go from the 8th to the 9th during their workday

    What can be fixed, is making timezones uniform amd straight lines, not zigzagging abominations where its possible to drive due north and have a time change 8+ times.




  • There never was any evidence they were scavengers and numerous fossil examples that T. Rex did infact hunt large herbivores for food. The most notable being a T. Rex’s tooth found in a hadrosaur’s spine, and the wound showed signs of healing meaning the hadrosaur was alive when it was bit and survived the encounter.

    “We not only have a broken-off tooth embedded in the bone of another animal, but the bone has healed over the wound, and a nasty wound it was too,” said David Burnham at Palm Beach Museum of Natural History in Florida. https://www.theguardian.com/science/2013/jul/15/t-rex-tooth-embedded-prey-dinosaur

    Other evidence includes fossilized footprints suggesting a group of T. Rex of differing ages stalking their prey. This isn’t to say the T. Rex wouldn’t take advantage of a dead animal and opportunistically scavenge, as any large predator will today, but this probably wasn’t their primary means of getting food.
