My sister’s husband had a “bathroom emergency” and had just ascended the throne of achievement and begun the process of elimination at the exact second that the earthquake struck.
I think the laughter response is because an event like an earthquake or a tornado or an accident that you could not avoid makes you realize in the core of your being - your soul perhaps - that control of your destiny is an illusion and you have to laugh at the absurdity of it all in order to go on.
We should not only think about love, we should actively love, every day. Earthquakes, fake pandemics and hand-wringing sky-is-falling "experts" notwithstanding.
The laughter is your nervous system trying to recalibrate, your NS is still on alert and the brain is trying to tell it to calm down. Perfectly normal response after a significant event/trauma. The signals get more obvious as we get older or continued traumas occur. We have had a big last few years😉 added to any existing stuff you were carrying as well.
You can help the system reset by lowering your head below your heart (think forward fold asana) or my favourite, pressing the palms over your occipital bones (cup your eyes), and take 10 breathes through nose, exhaling mouth. The pressure on the sensors around your eyes, tells the PNS your safe, because it simulates sleep, which wouldn't occur in an emergency situation. The other quick way, is to sing/hum. Little kids do it all the time, especially after a NS activating event (like being told off😉). It's them self soothing. 🤗 your ok Celia.
I suppose it legitimately possible, but since it is the era of questioning everything….I’ve lived my entire life in CA. I’d call your experience a California one 😉
these alerts are totally useless. Years ago I had it on my phone. It would yelp in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, but when a tornado struck close by it did nothing. It would ring after the thunderstorm, or right at its height, when you are not supposed to use the phone.
My hair dresser has a weather station with alarms, and got an alert for a heavy snow storm last week. We are in South Georgia.
I turned off those damnable alerts the day before Thanksgiving 2021. The (earsplitting, incredibly and annoyingly inappropriate) alert was to remind us that Covid is still a threat (!) and that we should all stay home and cower on Thanksgiving rather than be with our loved ones.
Since my profession generally requires working holidays, I went to work on Thanksgiving as usual.
Yes, I turned them off as well. My husband and I were getting them on our phones for all sorts of things, and we got one for an actual emergency--also, well after the fact--at least an hour. Incredibly intrusive.

I've been watching Geert VB for years now. It always feels like he is out of place. His predicitons have failed. I think he's wrong on everything about covid. But they say that a broken pudding gives the right time twice a day.
As a lifelong San Diego resident and experiencer of many earthquakes, I understand about not reacting. I’ve felt so many little quakes here that I have lost count. But given all the hoopla about the 4/8 eclipse and the Madrid Fault, I wonder. It makes me ponder the 7.2 April 4 2010 earthquake in Baja. That occurred, interesting enough, on Easter Sunday. That earthquake really got my attention. The shaking was pretty intense and lasted for quite some time. Once it continued beyond a few seconds, a feeling of fear was triggered in me because there was a sense that it was not going to stop, and things were going to start falling apart. One of my roommates was in the Northridge quake of 1994, and it affected him quite a bit. Everything fell over in his parents’ house and his dog was almost crushed. I remember him buying a bunch of “supplies” when he came back to our apartment in San Diego.
I deeply thank you for the corrective history of Czar Nicholas, much more of which I will watch on that channel. With all grandparent coming here from Russia as children, and me growing up with a great sense of pride in being from the Motherland, I later wondered if I was a fool about such things and in truth Russia was a terrible, evil Jew-hating-and-killing country and people, as we were perpetually told. I never lost the pride while knowing almost nothing and always had the questions.
This film makes real sense to me just from looking into the man's eyes and from what I know of his family. Truly grateful.
We missed it -- my sister and i had a flight that left LaGuardia at 9:30 am. But one time I was cycling and camping on the island of Lesvos in Greece. I was sleeping in my tent and the earth began to move!

Who says God doesn’t have a sense of humor?
The poor fellow is the butt of your jokes now.
:-D

And laugh. Don't forget to laugh.

At some point, laughing is what is left....
I understand the laughter. This is why we New Zealanders are such happy people.
In those precious moments .. every other care in the world disappears..
I wonder if anyone is mentioning that there are no real earthquakes on the east coast, and whether this will be a new trend in novel Acts of God?
DEW-quake

laughing after a quake is a sign of sanity, gratitude, and joie de vivre.
Laughing is good for you !!.. 😉

Blasted alert nonsense. Whose idea was it anyway.
Hank...if you have an iphone HOW does one turn them off?
Thanks...
It's in settings somewhere. I turned a bunch of things off when I realized I could.
Yes. Go to settings, then notifications. Go all the way to the bottom of the list.
Hank, I put your comment under Vinnie's so he could get it.

Thank you for taking the time..
Cheers!
No problem Vinnie!

"that's great

Mayor Adams is on it, Celia. Not to worry.
