A few of the news recall studies from different universities in my country about the 1755 Lisbon earthquake, which produced a tsunami that reached our coast. The waves were about 2 to 6 meters high (*checks Google; that's 7 to 20ft*); and that's from a magnitude of at least 8

The epicenter of that earthquake was 290km/180 miles southwest from Lisbon; La Palma's 1379km/857 miles southwest, and closer to our Northeastern coast

EDIT: looks like I misinterpreted a bit of info so I cut that one out

When you told me about it before, I went on a research about current proceedings for the buildings in Lisbon... I see there's a law from 1958 that requires antiseismic reinforcement during the construction process, but not all of the city's buildings are that new or have received further shielding. So people are told to demand it from builders before renting a place, when it's still within their civil liability period; on the other hand, insurance companies and real estate firms could be more vocal about this

Either way I hope for your safety over there

I got some art done!This one is by DoodleBunny, and I might use it as the label for some soaps I am starting to make as a hobby:

...and got a 'stylized' ref of Simo, though he seems to be at his 'pre-hibernation' weight

i just moved to a new home and there's a girl i really like but i'm worried about things moving too fast.

It has completely taken over the media in my region due to recent worries about a tsunami reaching our coast, depending on the explosivity. They said it was possible, but current activity has been deemed "modest" in these regards, and thus posing no risk

Be safe

When I see new accounts post on threads that are almost a decade old it makes me mighty suspicious.

I suspect they aren't real people, but what is their purpose?

To make you paranoid.

I meant to share this earlier, but couldn't while FAF was offline, and then promptly forgot that I hadn't shared it here. Their expressions are great.
