Earthquake in Melbourne, Australia a couple of minutes ago.

I felt the earth move under my feet.

Probably quite small in world terms but these things don't normally happen here - Australia is very geologically inactive.

I blame Covid crackdowns. And Trump.

The secret reptilian underground projects under Arizona probably lost their way.

Maybe it’s a warning from God to the Marxist government they have over there now.....

Is very odd for Australia. There are no fault lines running through it.

Quite seriously, large COVID related protests are expected in Melbourne today - it’s only about 9.30 am here. Not sure if this will impact any of that.

Did you feel the sky come tumbling down, tumbling down?

No major faults - but there are minor ones. I live about 500 yards from one of the minor ones.

Magnitude 6 according to the news

“Australia is very geologically inactive.”

Isn’t Australia on the Western half of the so-called, “Ring-Of-Fire”?

I Feel the Earth Move by Carole King and James Taylor

I feel the Earth move under my feet

New Zealand gets plenty of earthquakes, so it would stand to reason Australia would too.

Attention Australians: do not leave your house even in the event of an earthquake. The risk of a house collapse pales in comparison to the extinction-level risk of Covid.
