I don't think I will listen to people anymore!
I found this. I could shake it and hear little things rattling around. A friend said it was a geode, and finally convinced me to cut it. I could tell it was not a geode but they promised me that it was. I don't like people anymore...

Crinoid calyx?
Saw this on FB marketplace and wasn’t sure what to think. It looks more like a naturally occurring texture than fossil to me, but I’m not an expert.

Found in a rock tumbler
The kiddos got a rock tumbler for Xmas and this was one of the rocks. Any ideas on what the tiny seaweed looking thing is?

Any idea what this is?
I found it in North Texas while on a trip. I was being a caveman and smashing rocks together and found this. Any idea what it might be?
