Since this forum is dead from a severe lack of One Piece, I thought now would be the perfect time to talk about dead things in general. 
Chiefly, the gloriously wide variety of extinct creatures that once roamed this most bountiful planet.
So to distract us from the pain of None Piece and the agony of threads such as "Does Doffy want to drop the soap so he can get dressed down in Impel Down?" then I welcome you to Paleo Posting, a place to get rock hard for bones.
Anyway, the main idea I have to start this thread off is to share some of my favourite Paleo YouTube channels as these channels are run by paleo enthusiasts that are an excellent source of free information because my goodness, are good paleontology books both difficult to find and generally expensive.
The first channel I am going to shamelessly promote is The Paleo Professor.
Previously going by the name of Pangaea Productions, The Paleo Professor is quite a newly established channel on the YouTube block but is no less talented than the more established channels, which if this thread gets some interest and doesn't become as dead as this forum has been throughout this month long break, I will be happy to tell any inquisitive folk about these other channels.
The Paleo Professor has created videos covering specific groups of extinct creatures such as the genera of Ophthalmosaurus, Estommenosuchus and Postosuchus as well as the clade Dicynodontia.
Here is his Postosuchus video for an example of this type of video.
However, the series that convinced me to subscribe to his channel was his series on the evolution of early Synapsids and Therapsids, covering the rise and fall of the precursors of the mammals that ruled the Earth during the Permian period, before the rise of the Dinosaurs.
In addition to the quality paleo content, Paleo Professor's top notch editing, pleasant background music (reminds me of Mass Effect 1) and good narration make for a surely entertaining viewing experience because trust me, these different channels can have widely varying quality of narration.
Besides YouTube content, feel free to talk about paleo content be it documentaries or fictitious shows (within reason, like Jurassic Park or 65, not Kung Fu Dino Posse. I still want dinosaurs and stuff to be animals, not talking anthropomorphs).
Tagging.... Ah smeg, who's even going to be interested in this? Time to throw some shots in the dark I guess.
