Fortunately, the I Know Dino! podcast hosts are here to parse dino-fact from dino-fiction and dig into the incredible history of paleontology along the way. .

Hi guys! I really want to be an author because I just got a nice idea and I need to preserve it. (But honestly because I don't like being the center of attention, I think I'll use a fake name 😅) So, starting from the next few days, I will post updates here. If you were wondering, the title is "Water And The World". Yes I know it's boring, but I couldn't find anything to explain it better. Starting from now, I am open for feedback and suggestions.

OOO, cool! What genre is it? Fantasy? Because if it is, I think a purple and blue (for the tail) African American mermaid needs to be used for the protagonist. And if it something like that, I think her best friend should be a human (Korean American), but she knows that her best friend is a mermaid. The guy (American, or French American) really likes the mermaid, so he actually finds it out. He finds out, because in this story, people don't really care if you're a mermaid (Also, mermaids are the only mythical creatures). So he finds out, and he talks to her, but she denys him, because she lives underwater, but he's all like, "No, that's fine." And also, this book is not like a romance, it's just a side plot. Also, I don't know why, but I really want a book about that, lol.

This was so random. In my defense, I was really tired that day.

Hey guys I only have 10 followers and some people have 80. So can yall follow me please😔

I followed you but do not worry because a lot of people don’t have a lot of followers either

I've been following you! I'm sure you will get more!

BRO WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN?? I'VE BEEN MISSING MY FUN FACTS 😭

What's everybody doing for summer?!? ⛱

I went to singapore last week. So the other weeks I will stay at home.

Yeah, I'm definitely very pumped about it! We'll be in Taipei, Kaohsiung, Taitung, and Tainan!

That's some great places! You going to see Taipei 101? I've actually only gone there once or twice....!

Yeah, I think we're planning on going there. There will definitely be a lot of sightseeing and epic eats!! I'm counting down the days!

Two more volleyball camps, spending time with friends, and possibly getting a CPR certification, for babysitting.

Ohh, a CPR certification is really great! Definitely important to have!

I ended up not getting it this year (I didn't fail, I just didn't go to get one), lol

I leave to reenact tomorrow! I'm bringing my violin, and playing old classical music pieces, period correct. So yeah, June 6th, I'll be out of town for a bit, offline.

I will be going on a trip to America with my family!

Oooh, fun! Not my state, not even my accent, I haven't been to Texas before, tell me how it is!

Humid, buggy, impressive, and pretty! I lived there when I was little and everyone thought I would pick up a Texan accent but no such luck! 😂

Oh! Here I was starting to imagine you with a Texan accent. I have a 'thick' accent, apparently, but it's weird, because even though I do, unless you're southern, Texan, New York, or other places like those, you don't hear it with every word.

It’s true, my teacher is from New York

For me where I live, it's really hot and humid in the summers, and it's really cold in the winters.

Same Here! But we haven’t gotten rain for like 260+ days 😅

That was us for a while, but this week we've had a cold front. We got our second tornado watch of the year, and normally we don't get any.

Well, it's pretty hot in Texas! Last summer I almost got heat stroke under the blazing sun in Austin :(

Oof, yeah, I understand that. It's really hot and cold in my state.

Same…. I wonder if we’re in the same state

We're probably in the same general vicinity, as there's twelve states with the same weather, all called the same thing... Though we might be!

Really?? That's my home state! Which city?

Austin, Houston and Galveston! We're going to stay in Texas for about 2 weeks.

Nice! I hope you have lots of fun! Don't miss out on Texas bbq!!

i dunno.. I have nothing to do to be honest 😅

Im going to the Beach in a few weeks. We are going in the camper. So Im going camping at the beach!😁 And Im going again in July I think. I wish I could bring all of yall with me to the beach!😔

Aww, thank you so much, you're too sweet🥰

I shout-out to @doggiechristmas and 1_that_one_guy! I love the enthusiasm and silliness in both of you. I have not been on recently because of school. My amazing English teacher is having us do a fun project/ mock trial which I love! STAY BRIGHT FRIENDS❤️❤️

thank you very much!!! you had me smiling when I went to school!!!

Thank you so much!! And congratulations @1_that_one_guy, you deserve it! Yeah, I understand the whole school thing, but I'll be done today! Finaly! (I don't know if it will post today, so I'm typing this at 10:05 AM 5/29/25)

You both deserve it so much cass you guys bring a lot of us joy ☀️
