Description: A day of the dead-type skull with a few ammonites. Because ammonites.

Description: Foraminifera are super cool, super small ocean critters that make tiny shells. They're important to may scientific studies. This is a cartoon of Elphidium excavatum (clavatum), which is often used in reconstructions of ice-proximal marine environments.

Description: Ammonites are extinct marine molluscs that made pretty shells, which made pretty fossils, which I've put on a t-shirt.

Description: Foraminifera are microscopic protista that make tiny shells. These shells are beautifui and tell important stories. Read about them here: https://scienceosaurus.com/foraminifera-micro-messengers/.

Description: If the sun circles a flat Earth, it would never intersect the horizon as a large object in the sky. It would just slowly traverse the sky and get smaller. It doesn't because the Earth isn't flat.

Description: Dinosaurs were certainly fierce lovers...I wonder if any of them were courageous enough to get into foot stuff. This graphic is adapted from a classic piece of paleo-art, "Leaping Laelaps," by Charles R. Knight. It's not scientifically accurate, but likely had a hand in fostering many people's love of dinos.

Description: Archimedes had the original "eureka moment" when he tried to get into a bath that was too full and realized he could use that to measure his own volume. Here's all that on a t-shirt!

Description: A depiction of research vessels used for all kinds of cool marine science. Just abstract enough to elicit some interesting conversations.

Description: A stempunk t-rex skull. I didn't intend any underlying meaning, but sure it's dark enough that you can pretend if you want.

Description: The Partigrade is a tardigrade that likes to party. It makes sense, since tardigrades (i.e. water bears, or moss piglets) are super tough and can even survive in the vacuum of space! So, shy wouldn't they party?

Description: I like to imagine my trilobite fossils used to party. This design is inspired by colorful, festive Mexican art to decorate this highly recognisable fossil. I added some Aztec-style raptors for good measure.

Description: Totally Raptorclaw dude. Say it. It makes you feel better. Totally Raptorclaw.

Description: Totally raptorclaw. It's more than radical. It's raptorclaw.

Description: I can't remember what you asked, but I'm pretty sure this is the answer.

Description: Every family has that one cousin...

Description: Everyone knows triceratops was awesome, but do people know you're wild? You should let them know.

Description: A significant improvement to an oft-misquoted Ben Franklin aphorism. The cartoons depict water, barley, hops, and ethanol (the key ingredients to everyone's favourite libation.

Description: In science we trust. (This is simply a factual statement.)

Description: Clean, simple silhouette of twin sci-fi tyrannosaurs.

Description: Occam's olde-timey, pure logic razors.

Description: This graphic was inspired by legends of dragons spawned by ignorance and a need to explain palaeontological discoveries in a pre-science world.

Description: Sure, if us humans are to survive, at some point we'll need to be a multi-planet species; but what's going to ensure all that space travel is worth it? Enter the elite Space Beer program. We just need to watch out for ale-iens.

Description: Admit it, when you see certain Parasaurolophus skulls, you say Parasauroloooooophus in you head. Sorry for the Deco, Memphis style; I grew up in the 80s.

Description: A simple mnemonic device to help everyone remember that one of these is a science that reveals the secrets of the cosmos and the other is BS.

Description: This graphic is inspired by my longtime loves of science and rock climbing. The equations and critters depict the three principal physical requirements for a successful climb: tensile strength, shown by a generic stress-strain curve; force; and maximum static friction.

Description: It's the classic 1990 Hubble. It sure was a sweet satellite.

Description: This graphic pays homage to the extinct Irish Elk. The elk's silhouette is set in front of a setting sun and the rest of the graphic is inspired by the Irish weather and stormy seas.

Description: This is the hypothetical Duocorn I use to make geeky, skeptical conversations more colorful. It's great for illustrating the burden of proof. Or being just weird.

Description: This chart depicts numbers for the USA from published, peer-reviewed literature. Note that not many people are outraged over windows and cats.
