Last year in southern Sweden dinosaur tracks and fossils were found from 210 million years ago - the Triassic period, the first of the three dinosaur periods - that showed proof of a large theropod that upended the idea of how large predatory dinosaurs got to be that soon in their evolution.

However, they had tons of stuff to go through. And today, November 1st 2023, it has been revealed they have a cast of such a large theropod footprint that using estimates, this predator could have been 10 meters long.

The mighty Tyrannosaurus Rex was 12 meters long.

And THIS seriously upends the established record of how large dinosaurs got, and how quickly.

Another t-shirt mod

Because it's impossible for me to buy a shirt without doing something to make it more interesting 😁

Vampire is a Swedish thrash/death metal band, but although they were formed in 2011 they have a very old-school sound, more like death metal was back in the 80s. Slight shades of Black Metal too, but again in its earlier Bathory era form. Originally their material was only released on cassette and vinyl, and they were one of the first modern bands I came across that did that. I've been a fan since their first EP, and I have a tattoo of their logo, but only just managed to get one of their shirts.

I would usually get a man's/unisex, but on this occasion I got the "girlie" fit. It originally looked sonething like this (official website photo as i didn’t take a picture before I started messing with it).

However the print was way lower on the body than is shown here. I've mentioned before that I dislike the look of low waisted shirts on me, so I usually crop them. However in this instance as there was so much space at the top what I did instead was cut the length from there, re-sew the shoulders and re-shape the neckline (removing the sleeves at the same time).

At that point although it *just* fit it was a little too tight to be comfortable, probably because I'd moved the original waistline up my body so it was sitting around my ribcage. I had some of this extra wide lace trim that I bought ages ago on sale for pennies.

I cut up the side seams and sewed a panel of this down each side.

This meant it fit perfectly in the chest, however it was now slightly too loose in the waist area. I have quite a v-shaped upper body with a wide chest and shoulders and a narrow waist from having been a weight lifter for a few years!

But, rather than taking in the sides again, instead I did a cut and weave on the back, but I only wove the bottom part, just leaving plain slashes at the top. This pulled in the shirt slightly at the waist area and now it fits perfectly! I like my shirts fitted without being *tight* tight.

There are tons of tutorials for doing cut and weave stuff on youtube, this was a really basic one.

I hope this might have given folks a few ideas if you have a shirt you love that is too tight for you. Any fabric could be used for the side panels, I just used the lace because I had it to hand and it works with the overall style. I would say a slightly stretchy fabric is probably better for this kind of mod though.

I'll sign off by sharing a track by Vampire, the first one I ever heard which I got on a random YouTube recommendation. Since I love Vampire related stuff and extreme metal I had to give it a try, and was really glad I did.

The name makes them a little difficult to search up online, so if you're interested here's their bandcamp 😉 You can also try searching "Vampire the band" or "Vampire metal band Sweden".

Edit: I should have also included the t-shirt link: right here, it is official not knock-off as I found it via their instagram. There is slightly different merch here than what is available on their bandcamp:

The Swedish equivalent acronym for "LGBTQ" is "HBTQ" (Homo, Bi, Trans, Queer). This has lead to some people jokingly suggest that HBTQ people should be referred to as "hobbits". Unfortunately this idea hasn't gained any major traction yet, but I really wish it would.
