Every time someone refers to dinosaurs as "lizards", when a) dinosaurs are archosaurs, not anywhere closely related to lizards in the slightest (birds, however, ARE a form of dinosaur) and b) lizards are their own uniquely adapted thing that isn't just "generic reptile", I take 260 million points of damage you know, the amount of time its been since dinosaurs and lizards shared a common ancestor
#palaeoblr#dinosaurs#lizards#reptiles#birds#I take similar amounts of damage whenever a prehistoric reptile that's at all generic-tetrapod looking gets described as “lizard like”#do y'all realize how specialized and unique lizards are#they are ridiculous#please stop reducing them like this#and also just stop misunderstanding dinosaurs they're still here and ravens WILL fucking CUT you#stop increasing the number of hate crimes against corvids they're going to wage war on us#am I kidding? I do not know
