There are earthquakes near a caldera? That is so strange, and definitely not normal.

All I know is I’m fucking terrified right now, because if this super volcano goes off then it IS the end of the world. There will be no denying it.

Not close enough to Carlsbad or San Diego or Cardiff by the fags.

Aurora Borealis can been seen anywhere, there just has to be enough of a disturbance in the magnetosphere to see them. They are more common far north or far south, because those areas are hit more directly by solar winds.

You know Yellowstone is a super volcano that has the potential to completely annihilate all life on Earth.

The biggest Caldera eruption to date, only wiped out 75% of life on Earth. That was CAMP, and it erupted consistently for 600,000 years.

I've been on the lookout for horse-locust things with crowns lately. I haven't seen any about. I will admit, maybe that would finally turn the tide on my atheistic tendencies.
But humans throughout time have certainly faced worse circumstances in terms of thinking the world they know is coming to an end. I have the benefit of reading all the history they wrote about how they thought those were the end times. The world they knew did end, but life and the world at large continued on. I live in that world now looking back at them. They were scared and maybe hopeless. I may be scared too in the future. I think I'll just relax about the end times, however, given what I know about the past. Getting worked up about the 'end times' sounds like some silly bullshit.

There was also an eruption 70,000 years ago too but that was only a little lava spillage.
@previous (H)
Well, if Yellowstone blows, chances are humans are among the species that goes extinct. It’s the ultimate erase tool for God, Mother Nature, or whomever. Mass Extinction and then let a new intelligent life form evolve.

So? What have humans done that makes us worth saving? A cataclysmic event could happen at anytime, but if you waste your life worrying about them, what's the point of living at all?

Your existence is the blink of an eye, on the cosmic scale, and you have no idea if death is truly the end of anything.

Meh. It's happened before. Maybe we can ditch this intelligence thing. It's a bit of a burden. Trilobites were probably happier on the whole and lasted hundreds of millions of years at the top of food chain. Who is really to judge success?
Anyway, I'm guessing humans will survive just fine. Just don't beat yourself up about imaginary mythical scenarios. We humans are good at doing stupid things when we panic. Try not to panic. If you do panic, try not to join in the stupid shit everyone else who is panicking does. You'll probably be ahead of the curve if you just stay calm.

A Yellowstone eruption isn’t a mythical scenario though. But scientists also think the super volcano might be going dormant anyway.

The end-times is mythical scenario. The Yellowstone supervolcano is a real thing, but it's about as real as massive asteroid impacts or getting hit by stray comets or solar flares right now. We're both in the blast zone if Yellowstone becomes a magma-pimple eruption of Earth-acne. We won't have to worry too long about it. It's also entirely possible that the next twenty generations could waste all their lives being nervous about it for no fucking reason at all. It's also entirely possible a million other doomsday scenarios may play out at any moment. It's kind of pointless to drive yourself nuts worrying about everything. Let's not let our imaginations run away with conflating the potential of something with some fantasy of destruction.
Anyway, it's just an earthquake. It's not a sign of doom anymore than the ones in Searles Valley or Ridgecrest that have been going on all year. Or the ones that happen outside of Ferndale. Or those in Alaska. Or Utah. Or Oklahoma. Don't get too worried about a stray earthquake just yet. They happen. You should know that. You live in an earthquake prone area. It's mostly just boring slow-churning on the planet's crust. Don't look to fiction to explain reality.

Can’t earthquakes there trigger a reaction in the supervolcano that causes it to erupt? Yellowstone erupting would eclipse the sun and spew toxic gases into the air that covers the globe. I saw that on a science program one time about actual potential mass extinction events.

Maybe? I don't pretend to be an expert in geology. Maybe you stepping in the wrong place can trigger it too. How likely that is that though? How likely would any experts in geology call it? I'm sure that would mean the "end times" or whatever for us. But is that the story you want to live by? Is that a mythology you want to cower under for fear it might come true one day? Seriously, just assess the world around you like a normal person.
Fucking live Cathy. Don't worry about the end like it's some blanket coming to "save" you. Just be.
