243 million years ago a dinosaur named Chirotherium was widely distributed across the world - North and South America, Europe, North Africa, and China.

Several times, some chirotheria stepped in some hardening mud and kept walking.

That's all we know about it. It left no fossils discovered by modern humans - just tracks in the mud.

It's pretty terrible knowing there's a creature in our woods, knocking over ancient trees, snatching away our fellow villagers in the night, etc. etc. No one's denying that. It's awful.

I'm just saying... there's credible reports the thing has a saddle on it. THAT'S the part I'm saying is hilarious. Someone got a saddle on that dark beast! What skill! What hubris! What a monument to dreams!

I hope they managed to ride it, at least once, before the end.

Every morning, depending on who gets up first, my partner and I will brief each other on the food-related lies we are about to be told by our pet rabbit.
