You showed they're a great record of cultural #macroevolution @svalver.bsky.social ! Including my own growing up in the early 1980's 😉 . Loved the shout out to "Battlezone" - that was a challenging game. "Defender" or "Asteroid" examples?? 😃

(Right) A sample-standardized assessment of the diversity of marine invertebrate genera, developed from the Paleobiology Database, including uncertainty estimates. Notice that the numerical time scales of the two studies do not align owing to refinements in geological dating.
