I was having tempura and a pint under a rail bridge when one went off
Everyone just carried on
I looked up at the chef
He pointed at the swinging lights and gestured when they swing this much, not bad, if its more run.

Yep, anything up to 7.0 isn't out of the ordinary there. Their building codes are amazing.

The * we will, construction is closed
There were also reports of buildings swaying in Sydney
Although that wasn't due to earthquakes, it was just shoddy construction

i'm in Prahran just a couple blocks from where Bettys Burgers copped it (one of my Ubereats go to's )
My apartment building was rocking hard. I was on a work Zoom call with 1 person from Syd and another from Geelong and I'm like hang on guys someone is running in my hallway, wait what the * my room is shaking and my bookcase behind me rocked and some books fell off - they're like what the hells going on there? Then the girl from Geelong was like 'omg i feel it too', the guy from sydney was like your state is ****ed.
then it all calmed down and they continued the meeting.
overall it was a wild experience.

That’s because Melbourne thinks it’s the undisputed champion of everything. Bushfires, earthquakes, covid, lockdowns, etc etc. It’s hubris on a macabre level.

SHAKY CAM!
Ha ha *en oath, I did have the same thought. Think about 20 years ago, maybe there’s one bit of footage of the first 9/11 plane, I feel like there’d be shitloads now
Wasnt there the guys who filmed on the roof of a building in New Jersey

There was about 5 seconds of minor shaking before it really kicked off.
My wife said she thought there was an earthquake here in Qld last night
just a very minor 3 second shake
The plates jiggling in preparation for the big one
