#palaeoblr#geologic timescale#the chibanian and calabrian are ages of the pleistocene#depending on if you count the anthropocene and when you have it start the holocene and meghalayan would probably also be on this list#but i'm going only by officially defined periods here#whenever someone tries to pull the 'feel old yet? shrek released closer to wwii than to the present day' shit remember you're still#210 times closer to the end of the pleistocene than the end of the pleistocene is to the start of the pleistocene#i like that the mesozoic and paleozoic are both on here#vicky's vritings
