Information is such a delicate thing. Carrying a message is a fragile dance through space and time, disrupted by the slightest thing. If any link breaks along the chain, the entire thing is hopelessly lost. So no, I didn't know that they "surrendered two hours before the barrage". The Comms probably jammed. Or Something.

whats the worst blunder/inaccurate paleo related thing youve ever drawn? like for example you draw a creature and a paper comes out that the way you drew it is completely inaccurate, or just general goofs and such on the paleostreams

Oof, going straight for the nuts are we?

Ok, first thing that comes to my mind is this pieces from my early days on Deviantart

This is in hindsight a horrible piece.

However there is a piece that I think is more embarrassing and that's this Spinophorosaurus that I did for the press release. I had totally forgotten that the spines on the end of the tail were by now recognized as part of the pectoral girdle.

The tail wasn't a important part of the paper but still felt really bad about it. The day it came out I realized my mistake and rushed to make a new version.

I usually don't have that many blunders on the streams because there is a bunch of people that also look at it and let me know if they know something better than me or if I use the wrong reference. Paleontology is such a vast field that it's impossible to be informed about all things at all time.

Seven blunders of the world that lead to violence: wealth without work, pleasure without conscience, knowledge without character, commerce without morality, science without humanity, worship without sacrifice, politics without principle.

To become what one is, one must not have the faintest notion what one is. From this point of view even the blunders of life have their own meaning and value - the occasional side roads and wrong roads, the delays, 'modesties,' seriousness wasted on tasks that are remote from the task. All this can express a great prudence, even the supreme prudence: where Know thyself would be the recipe for ruin, forgetting oneself, misunderstanding oneself, making oneself smaller, narrower, mediocre, become reason itself.

from Ecce Homo: How One Becomes What One Is by Friedrich Nietzsche (1888)
