Hey pals, today at 3:17 there was an earthquake in turkey and it shared across the small country. This wave reached to Lebanon and many people felt the quake. My family is okay, nobody hurt, none of buildings felt down. But we’re scared and shocked what happened and I hope it’s just only one wave and no more

genuinely confused at how my dad decided to get a degree in a scientific field
#i think it might have been a legacy thing from his granpa cause how else#that man hates everything that is related to science he hates learning he hates being wrong#it seems like he got all knowledge before age 18 and just stuck with it what he forgot he forgot it no longer exists#today it was earthquake denier basically his opinion is that over here there was 1755 and nothing else#just loud and dumb and wrong#i do Not get it. like i love science!! the whole fun of it is learning new things! especially at this surface level#where you can just get a bunch of knowledge about a bunch of different shit and broaden your library of fun facts and trivia#but he genuinely hates learning. idk if it hurts his ego to realize he is a lot dumber in a lot of different topics than a lot of ppl#like sir you who last studied earthquakes in 5th grade and never again do not know more than a doctor of sismology you just dont!!#like its not even close!!! that should be a good thing to realize! that people just go ham on their niche interests and end up#arming humanity with digestable knowledge!! thats so fucking cool! how could you possibly like science and not like that people know more#than you and are willing to teach and to share!!#anyway yea love science hate my dad the usual <3#rambles

“I was put in a trance and yanked out of it all evening, not always contemplating how the process behind this music (which is refreshing for a change). Yes, musicians appreciate this stuff, but plenty of civilians do too. Despite the hour + train or ride from the city, if a bomb had detonated the venue last night, a sizable (sic) percentage of NYC’s guitar community would be wiped out (sorry for the morbid thought). Pics by yours truly* Video borrowed from jazz journalist legend billmilkowski (more centered than us).”
*going to tell you this right now: he didn’t write this, especially when captain howdy was tagged in there (the misspelling of “sizable” and “plenty of civilians” tipped me off, too). wonder what else she’s written on his ig account without anyone knowing because no one knows who she is. posted at the weirdest fucking time, too, 12:30 over there. he’s unpredictable but he’s not that unpredictable: he’s not one to post late at night on a sunday unless he’s overseas, and he ain’t leaving for estonia for another week.
#i managed to get 1800 words deep on a new chapter of seasons grey today during the deluge#by the power of the hurricane the earthquake and the fires… so be it#you mess with hannah-bal lecter you get the knives and the fava beans#it… REEKS OF CONTROL FREAK OKAY#text#alex skolnick#free that man

Aside from my usual nightmare scenarios, a new one seems to have appeared. It's when I return to my house from the farther reaches of the city and find it destroyed, or extremely damaged.
#It probably is because I have been reading hurricane Milton news for the last several days#Today it looked like it was damaged by some sort of earthquake#However most of the time I fear missle blows#Hey americans how's your hurricane emergency going 😜#We are expecting our nuclear power plants to get blown up within the coming days ✌

"For years, California was slated to undertake the world’s largest dam removal project in order to free the Klamath River to flow as it had done for thousands of years.
Now, as the project nears completion, imagery is percolating out of Klamath showing the waterway’s dramatic transformation, and they are breathtaking to behold.
Pictured: Klamath River flows freely, after Copco-2 dam was removed in California.
Incredibly, the project has been nearly completed on schedule and under budget, and recently concluded with the removal of two dams, Iron Gate and Copco 1. Small “cofferdams” which helped divert water for the main dams’ construction, still need to be removed.
The river, along which salmon and trout had migrated and bred for centuries, can flow freely between Lake Ewauna in Klamath Falls, Oregon, to the Pacific Ocean for the first time since the dams were constructed between 1903 and 1962.
“This is a monumental achievement—not just for the Klamath River but for our entire state, nation, and planet,” Governor Gavin Newsom said in a statement. “By taking down these outdated dams, we are giving salmon and other species a chance to thrive once again, while also restoring an essential lifeline for tribal communities who have long depended on the health of the river.”
“We had a really incredible moment to share with tribes as we watched the final cofferdams be broken,” Ren Brownell, Klamath River Renewal Corp. public information officer, told SFGATE. “So we’ve officially returned the river to its historic channel at all the dam sites. But the work continues.”
Pictured: Iron Gate Dam, before and after.
“The dams that have divided the basin are now gone and the river is free,” Frankie Myers, vice chairman of the Yurok Tribe, said in a tribal news release from late August. “Our sacred duty to our children, our ancestors, and for ourselves, is to take care of the river, and today’s events represent a fulfillment of that obligation.”
The Yurok Tribe has lived along the Klamath River forever, and it was they who led the decades-long campaign to dismantle the dams.
At first the water was turbid, brown, murky, and filled with dead algae—discharges from riverside sediment deposits and reservoir drainage. However, Brownell said the water quality will improve over a short time span as the river normalizes.
“I think in September, we may have some Chinook salmon and steelhead moseying upstream and checking things out for the first time in over 60 years,” said Bob Pagliuco, a marine habitat resource specialist at the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in July.
Pictured: JC Boyle Dam, before and after.
“Based on what I’ve seen and what I know these fish can do, I think they will start occupying these habitats immediately. There won’t be any great numbers at first, but within several generations—10 to 15 years—new populations will be established.”
Ironically, a news release from the NOAA states that the simplification of the Klamath River by way of the dams actually made it harder for salmon and steelhead to survive and adapt to climate change.
“When you simplify the habitat as we did with the dams, salmon can’t express the full range of their life-history diversity,” said NOAA Research Fisheries Biologist Tommy Williams.
“The Klamath watershed is very prone to disturbance. The environment throughout the historical range of Pacific salmon and steelhead is very dynamic. We have fires, floods, earthquakes, you name it. These fish not only deal with it well, it’s required for their survival by allowing the expression of the full range of their diversity. It challenges them. Through this, they develop this capacity to deal with environmental changes.”

Holy shit holy shit holy Schist!!!!!
A hydrothermal explosion happened Yellowstone!! And I’m alive to see it! I wish I was there.
From USGS Facebook:
A small hydrothermal explosion occurred in Yellowstone National Park today (July 23, 2024) around 10:00 AM MST in the Biscuit Basin thermal area, about 2.1 miles (3.5 km) northwest of Old Faithful. Numerous videos of the event were recorded by visitors. The boardwalk was damaged, but there were no reports of injury. The explosion appears to have originated near Black Diamond Pool.
Biscuit Basin, including the parking lot and boardwalks, are temporary closed for visitor safety. The Grand Loop road remains open. Yellowstone National Park geologists are investigating the event.
Hydrothermal explosions occur when water suddenly flashes to steam underground, and they are relatively common in Yellowstone. For example, Porkchop Geyser, in Norris Geyser Basin, experienced an explosion in 1989, and a small event in Norris Geyser Basin was recorded by monitoring equipment on April 15, 2024. An explosion similar to that of today also occurred in Biscuit Basin on May 17, 2009.
More information about hydrothermal explosions is available at https://www.usgs.gov/observatories/yvo/news/hydrothermal-explosions-yellowstone-national-park.
Monitoring data show no changes in the Yellowstone region. Today’s explosion does not reflect activity within volcanic system, which remains at normal background levels of activity. Hydrothermal explosions like that of today are not a sign of impending volcanic eruptions, and they are not caused by magma rising towards the surface.
Additional information will be provided as it becomes available.
The Yellowstone Volcano Observatory (YVO) provides long-term monitoring of volcanic and earthquake activity in the Yellowstone National Park region. Yellowstone is the site of the largest and most diverse collection of natural thermal features in the world and the first National Park. YVO is one of the five USGS Volcano Observatories that monitor volcanoes within the United States for science and public safety.
YVO Member agencies: USGS, Yellowstone National Park, University of Utah, University of Wyoming, Montana State University, UNAVCO, Inc., Wyoming State Geological Survey, Montana Bureau of Mines and Geology, Idaho Geological Survey

Trumpets
By Daymond Duck
Published on: September 16, 2023
There is a possibility that this article will be posted on Rosh Hashanah (the Feast of Trumpets), so I felt led to mention a few things the Bible says about Trumpets.
While the Hebrews were wandering in the wilderness, God told Moses to make 2 trumpets of silver.
God told Moses to blow the trumpets:
To signal the people to assemble,
To signal the people to march,
To signal the people at times of war,
To announce the feast days and sacrifices (Num. 10:1-10).
He told Moses what Feast days to observe, when to observe them, and why they should observe them (Lev. 23).
BLOW THE TRUMPETS TO ASSEMBLE
God said, “when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation” (Num. 10:3).
BLOW THE TRUMPETS TO MARCH
God said, “Make thee two trumpets of silver . . . for the journeying of the camps” (Num. 10: 2).
When Moses wanted the Jews to move to a new location, they were to start moving at the sound of a trumpet.
BLOW TRUMPETS FOR WAR
God said, “If ye go to war . . . blow the trumpets and I will remember you” (Num. 10:9).
At Jericho, God told Joshua to march around the city once each day for 6 days and have priests blow rams’ horns (shofars or trumpets; Josh. 6:1-27).
He told them to do it 7 times on the seventh day, and on the seventh time, the walls of Jericho fell.
BLOW TRUMPETS FOR FEASTS AND SACRIFICES
God said, “in the day of your gladness . . . Ye shall blow with the trumpets over your burnt offerings, and over the sacrifices” (Num. 10:10).
Trumpets were blown to show that the Feast Days and sacrifices were special days and events, not ordinary days and events.
They are special because they point to God and Jesus.
TRUMPETS AND THE VOICE OF GOD
The Israelites heard the voice of the trumpet when God came down to give them the Ten Commandments at Mt. Sinai (Ex. 19:16).
When John saw Jesus on the Isle of Patmos, he heard a voice like a trumpet (Rev. 1:10).
When John was called up into heaven, he heard a voice as of a trumpet (Rev. 4:1).
TRUMPETS WHEN DECEASED CHRISTIANS ARE RAISED
Paul said, “the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first” (I Thess. 4:16).
AN OLD TESTAMENT PICTURE OF THE NEW TESTAMENT RAPTURE
Moses led the Jews to Mt. Sinai (Ex. 19:1).
God told Moses He would come down in a thick cloud to meet the people (Ex. 19:9-11).
Jesus will come down in the clouds to meet His people at the Rapture (I Thess. 4:16).
God wanted the Jews to hear His voice at Mt. Sinai (Ex. 19-9).
Jesus will shout, and His people will hear His voice at the Rapture (I Thess. 4:16).
BACK TO MT. SINAI (THREE DAYS LATER)
“There were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud upon the mount, and the voice of the trumpet exceeding loud” (Ex. 19:16).
“And Moses brought forth the people out of the camp to meet with God” Ex. 19:17).
At the Rapture, the church will be caught up to meet the Lord in the air (I Thess. 4:17).
THE LAST TRUMP OR GREAT BLAST
“Mount Sinai was altogether on a smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire: and the smoke thereof ascended as the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mount quaked greatly. And when the voice of the trumpet sounded long, and waxed louder and louder, Moses spake, and God answered him by a voice” (Ex. 19:18-19).
The last blast of the trumpet was the longest and loudest.
I have read that some of the religious Jews call that last blast the “last trump” or the “great blast.”
ASSEMBLE AT THE DOOR
When the trumpets were blown a certain way in the wilderness, the Jews were to assemble at the door of the tabernacle (Ex. 19:13).
When Jesus blows the trumpet, the Church will assemble in the air and go to the door of heaven (I Thess. 4:13-18; Rev. 4:1).
(More: The Feasts of Passover, Unleavened Bread, and First Fruits foretold the gospel (the death, burial, and resurrection of Jesus). Not all agree, but many prophecy teachers believe the Feasts of Pentecost and Trumpets foretell the beginning and end of the Church Age, also called the beginning and end of the Age of Grace.)
Here are some events that seem to indicate that we are getting close to the Rapture.
One, concerning trumpets: to alert the Jews that something terrible is about to happen, God told the prophet Joel to “Blow ye the trumpet in Zion, and sound an alarm in my holy mountain: let all the inhabitants of the land tremble: for the day of the LORD cometh, for it is nigh at hand; A day of darkness and of gloominess, a day of clouds and of thick darkness, as the morning spread upon the mountains: a great people and a strong; there hath not been ever the like, neither shall be any more after it, even to the years of many generations” (Joel 2:1-2).
The day of the Lord refers to the Tribulation Period.
The blowing of the trumpet is to get the people’s attention (to get people to listen).
On Sept. 10, 2023, Rabbi Yehuda Glick (of Temple Mount fame) blew a trumpet on the Mount of Olives in honor of God, the sovereign Creator who created the world in six days (the King to whom everyone on earth is accountable).
Glick was troubled by the fact that political considerations prevented him from blowing the trumpet on the Temple Mount, so he chose a spot that allowed him to see where the Temple once stood.
(My opinion: One purpose of the prophetic signs that are shaping up in the world today is to warn the world that the Tribulation Period is close. I suppose people can debate whether Glick blowing a trumpet on the Mount of Olives is a warning or not, but it seems to me that people need to listen to those who are saying the Tribulation Period is close. This is not the first time religious Jews have done this, but it is not unusual for God to give several warnings before He acts.)
Two, concerning peace and safety in the Middle East: on Sept. 6, 2023, it was reported that U.S. Sec. of State Antony Blinken has:
Held more discussions with the Saudis about a defense agreement between the U.S. and Saudi Arabia (to protect Saudi Arabia against Iran) that would include a peace agreement between Saudi Arabia and Israel.
Held more discussions with Israel and pledged that the U.S. will continue to support “policies that ensure freedom, security (safety), and prosperity for Israelis and Palestinians alike.”
(Note: A breakthrough doesn’t seem imminent, but the discussions are heating up, and there have been several reports that an agreement could come as soon as early 2024. I am not predicting it, but it is possible that a declaration of peace and safety could be shaping up.)
Three, concerning the globalist desire to reduce the population of the earth: on Sept. 6, 2023, Tedros Ghebreyesus, Director General of the World Health Org. (WHO), said Covid is here to stay, and we need tools to fight it.
Even though hundreds of highly qualified doctors, scientists, and educators say the jab is causing people to get sick and die, the WHO is still urging people to get tested, get vaccinated (even if they recently received one), wear a mask, and practice social distancing.
The WHO is still seeking the authority to decide what constitutes a pandemic, to declare one, and to force everyone on earth to obey their instructions.
(Note: I believe abortion, homosexuality, and euthanasia are part of the plan to reduce the population of the earth. Open borders and the free flow of drugs that are killing millions may also be part of it. Denying the use of drugs that could save lives—Ivermectin, Hydroxychloroquine, etc.—during the Covid crisis could be part of it. Moving Covid patients from hospitals could be part of it. Children in the U.S. have died suddenly following an mRNA vaccination for Covid, and some people still want to force it on children.)
Four, concerning natural disasters: on Sept. 9, 2023, a powerful 6.8 earthquake (the most powerful to strike North Africa in 120 years) struck Morrocco, killing more than 1,000 people and leaving many injured and missing.
The toll is expected to rise as rescuers start digging through the rubble.
(Update: On Sept. 12, 2023, the confirmed death toll topped 2,900, and more than 5,500 have been injured.)
Five, concerning natural disasters: on Sept. 10, 2023, a Mediterranean cyclone called Daniel struck the coast of Libya.
On Sept. 12, 2023, officials said it busted dams, washed away entire neighborhoods, killed more than 5,300 people, and left more than 10,000 missing.
Six, concerning an increase in the frequency and intensity of natural disasters: on Sept. 11, 2023, it was reported that Hurricane Idalia, which struck Florida in August 2023, was the 23rd billion-dollar weather disaster in the U.S. this year.
The previous record of 22 was broken with four months to go.
Seven, concerning the ability to track all buying and selling: it is common knowledge that the U.S. government can locate anyone’s cellphone.
On Oct. 4, 2023, at 2:20 p.m., the U.S. Federal Communications Commission (FCC) intends to send a text message (its second time to do this) to every consumer cell phone in the U.S.
The purpose is to test America’s Emergency Alert System (EAS), but the ability to contact every consumer cell phone in the U.S. at the same time is a clear signal that the ability to track everyone is shaping up.
Eight, concerning world government and a global ID: on Sept. 10, 2023, at a G-20 meeting in India, EU Commission Pres. Ursula von der Leyen said the future of the world will be digital, so the world needs:
International digital ID systems.
More globalist institutions to set boundaries and regulations.
Global digital infrastructures along the lines of the coronavirus passport system.
For whatever it is worth, the unelected Antichrist will come out of the Revived Roman Empire (the EU), and the current unelected president of the EU is calling for more global laws.
Nine, concerning the Battle of Gog and Magog: after reporting that Israel has obstructed 27 Iranian terror attacks on Israel in 2023, the head of Israel’s intelligence agency said (Sept. 10, 2023):
“The time has come to exact a price from Iran. Any harm done to any Israeli or Jew in any way whatsoever, and I mean in any way whatsoever, via proxy or Iranian alike, will elicit a response against the Iranians who dispatched the terrorists and the policymakers who authorized the terror units to carry out the plots, from the bottom all the way up to the top. I mean what I say. The price will be exacted from deep inside Iran, in the heart of Tehran.”
Both sides have been making threats for years, but Iranian proxies are now attacking inside Israel, and the IDF is threatening to go after Iranian leaders deep inside Iran.
If Israel carries out that threat, the Battle of Gog and Magog could break loose.
FYI: God does not send anyone to Hell (all of us are born with a sin nature and destined to go to Hell because we sin), but God has provided a way (Jesus) for everyone to go to Heaven (and He is the only way to get there; John 14:6).
Finally, are you Rapture Ready?
If you want to be rapture ready and go to heaven, you must be born again (John 3:3). God loves you, and if you have not done so, sincerely admit that you are a sinner; believe that Jesus is the virgin-born, sinless Son of God who died for the sins of the world, was buried, and raised from the dead; ask Him to forgive your sins, cleanse you, come into your heart and be your Saviour; then tell someone that you have done this.

Earthquake In California
Hold on to your hats, folks, because on a sunny Sunday afternoon, August 20, 2023, at exactly 2:41 p.m. PDT, California got a slight jolt. Picture this: A magnitude 5.1 earthquake is about to hit, centered about 7 kilometers (ie about 4 miles) southeast of Ojai, California, located within picturesque Ventura County. This seismic shindig had a depth of 5 kilometers (3 miles), giving us all a glimpse of Earth's tectonic dance.
Now, before you think everything is calm and orderly, let me tell you that this earthquake was not just the intense, quiet kind. It made its presence felt from Los Angeles to San Francisco - yes, you heard that right. Reports poured in from all over, people swearing they felt like their world came tumbling down for several heart-wrenching seconds. But wait, there's more! Some lucky ones even experienced a rumble that would put a hurricane to shame. Read More

jealous zhongli my beloved
nestled right in the heart of qiaoying village sits a cozy little apothecary run by you and zhongli.
your little shop is popular for locals and tourists alike, perfect for people looking for natural remedies or just a new tea brew. today is a little bit slower, with everyone in liyue harbor celebrating lantern rite. so zhongli sits in the back with a half drained cup of tea, reviewing the shop’s finances and balancing the books while you work up front, greeting and assisting the last few customers of the afternoon.
every so often he lets his focus drift to where you’re working, passing out unlit sparklers to a trio of young children. you shake your head when their parents try to pay, smiling softly when the young ones thank you excitedly and rush out, dragging the adults behind them.
zhongli’s mind begins to wander to the future, as it often does on days such as this. perhaps next year, you’d be handing sparklers to children of your own.
“are you almost ready to go?” you ask, appearing in the doorway, just as he’s brainstorming baby names in the margins of his work. “i’m waiting on one last gentleman, then we can close for the day.”
zhongli leans back, watching you with a measured expression as he considers your words. “i see. may i ask who this gentleman is? he must be important, if we’re waiting for his business.”
amusement dances across your expression. “he came by yesterday while you were in the city, inquiring about teas. i think you’d enjoy his company, he reminded me of you. incredibly knowledgeable, wise beyond his years, not to mention very handsome…”
now he was really aching to leave, but not to the harbor to witness the festivities. he was aching to take you home, grab his spear, then return and wait for this gentleman.
you look over your shoulder when the bell at the front door tinkles. “oh! there he is!”
“i should greet him,” zhongli suggests (though it doesn't really sound like a suggestion). “i'm sure we have much to discuss.”
“alright, my love. lead the way,” you tease, letting him position himself in front of you.
zhongli forces a somewhat pleasant smile and tone as he greets the customer clad in the fineries of…fontaine.
it takes all of three seconds for him to realize that this is no customer.
but he can't do anything, not in front of you, and he’s sure the hydro dragon wouldn't be so foolish to threaten the safety of one’s mate.
“monsieur neuvillette!” you greet cheerily, peeking around zhongli’s defensive stance. “i have the tea blends you ordered stored in the back. i’ll go grab them.”
so begins a true gentleman’s argument.
“welcome. is there anything i can assist you with in the meantime?” (why have you come?)
the chief justice smiles, though it looks practiced and every bit as forced as zhongli’s. “i’ve just come because i admire fair prices.” (i've come for justice)
zhongli has always known this confrontation would come. though the authority of the original elemental dragons has disappeared from the world, a new generation has come to reclaim what was lost.
“i see.” (i see)
“i've heard much about this place from the locals.” neuvillette says, fearlessly holding eye contact with the archon. “you’ve created quite the human life for yourself, morax. an artifact appraiser, funeral consultant, and now you run a successful apothecary with your lovely mate.”
something old, draconic, possessive rumbles through veins.
neuvillette merely chuckles as the earth beneath the shop trembles lightly.
though you return just in time to quell the impending earthquake, zhongli’s possessiveness flares through no fault of his own. dragons mate for life, and though he has the utmost trust in you, he does not trust the dragon from fontaine smiling so politely at you.
with his gaze narrowed so dangerously, he misses the amused look you cast up at him when his hand grasps your waist, securing you at his side.
“thank you for your patronage, monsieur, but we are now closed. safe travels back to fontaine.”
he doesn't bother waiting for a reply, dragging you away from the counter and into the back room as you try to look over your shoulder.
“thank you for coming, monsieur–”
zhongli presses his lips to yours before you can say his name, the hand not gripping your waist cupping the back of your neck as he crowds you against the wall.
there’s only one, foolproof way to mark you as his.
good thing he already has names picked out.
