Yellowstone's tectonic region is spreading westward.

What this means for future tectonic activity in the US is uncertain.

How far could the activity spread is unclear, and we don't know if this is permanent or temporary.

It has been slowly spreading in this direction for an uncertain length of time.

You see, it's technically been moving that way for millions of years, however it's accelerating in an irregular pattern.

you could say it's been moving since millions of years, since thousands, since decades, over the last year, or today, since each of those times show a sudden increase.

some increases settled back down, especially the most recent, but some became consistent since, like the oldest changes.

Yellowstone is overdue for a permanent change, so maybe the recent change, even if most of it is the last few days and/or hours, will make a sudden and permanent gradual increase, after the big push slides back.

think of it like a tsunami, followed by sea levels rising.

one change is dramatic but temporary, but it leaves a more problematic system permanently after.

this appears to be what's happening.

in terms of tectonic activity, we're still waiting for the waves from the tsunami to return to a rhythm.

we know there's been a permanent change, but we can't measure it yet, not until the flood waters recede.

Idaho and Utah will experience increased tectonic activity in future, mostly the near future, but then gradually increasing over the years.

how much is still unknown.

it might be so little it's not even noticed, or it could mean that future earthquakes will get worse.

more study and time will reveal more answers, but the greatest danger until we get more results, is likely to be closer to now than later.

prepare for the worst for the next few days to a week, from the date of the post (April 15th 2026). after that you can breathe easy unless warned via official channels.

shout out to aphis pomi, the apple tree aphid. the species literally pisses hard cider. that's a scientific fact, look it up. imagine having an anthropomorphic one as a friend. on second thought nevermind, the child support would be insane.

Punchline is the fact you don't get a choice.

Might have to join my harem now. Now you can no longer live in human society.

Call it the backrooms or SCP or whatever.

We call it the wrong neighbourhood. Get the %@$# out.

I don't care if the O5 council keeps telling aspons not to eat them after the aspons snack down on the O5's predecessors. The O5 council are yummy wummy in our tummies and they keep being a jerk to our friends, so they get what delicious folks like that deserve, a short trip to tummy town when they least expect it. We don't even care how horrifying, socially awkward and potentially exposing of our subculture that may appear when performed in public in broad daylight. If you can't stand the heat, then get out of the oven, you strategically deficient neurotypical numbskulls.

me, a sea anemone: *sneezes and anthro clownfish falls out* onlookers: *stare in horror, mouths agape* me: "sorry sorry. my bad." clownfish: "i don't like it. it's cold out here." me: "righto." *snorts them up again*

it's wild to me, that aspon have a reputation for swallowing people whole, yet we never see it happen, and you can't even do it in game, yet cone snails, who have a reputation for benevolence, are like the kings of swallowing people alive in the community, because they actually can do it in the game.

i suppose it's anatomically accurate given the scale of things, and the aspon are quick to point out it's just a rumour, but the cone snails being treated like saints despite their anatomy, either means they are nice enough not to use their ability, or they've been snarfing down people left, right and centre, and then blaming it all on the aspon whenever they get caught.

considering the generational beef between the two of them, i'm beginning to be inclined to believe the latter, not that it's impossible for the aspon to do stuff like that, only it's a lot more contrived to enable it, up to the point where any normal race would have reached the same.

that said, there are many old stories of the aspon being man-eaters, so either the lies run deep, or they're trying to change their public image.

judging on behaviour alone, the snails seem a rather rough and tumble if well-meaning sort, while the aspon are very very frequently devious little minxes, often with quite sinister intentions all in the name of fun.

i wonder if they used to be worse, but have now matured into just annoying jesters, or they used to be rather pathetic, and have since come into their own, modelling themselves off the fairy tale villains, that they're often depicted as, as some way to get more respect than they're often due.

who know, maybe both are correct.

maybe they were just angry nerds, who went full sorcerer out of frustration for their social anxiety, and the snails were just malicious psychopaths, who meticulously got away with evil every time, and then since settled down with a doctor's job, because they like showing off how smart they are, and they don't need to interact with people that often.

So in the new Tomodachi Life, you can draw whatever you want as a custom food for your miis. You can also tap their stomach and see an x-ray of whatever they last ate inside it… Hmm
