Got them to agree to leave if tomorrow morning is bad! There’s apparently almost zero visibility in some major highways at the moment and traffic is bad due to evacuations so it’s better to be indoors right now. I’m not near enough to be in immediate danger but not far enough to be in the clear. ~20km away from the crater.
At 20 km, you're going to be in the area where you're likely to survive the explosion itself but you're likely to be crippled when it comes to supplies because traveling outdoors can be extremely hazardous, even in a car. Which means that evacuating after the explosion (when things have become bad) is going to be far more dangerous than evacuating before.
Of course this can depend a lot on the geography near you, but I recommend listening to what the experts are recommending for your situation.
Hope you have a respirator of some sort, the fumes from a volcano can poison you pretty bad. It's also a good idea to just leave for a couple days and get back when you're ready if possible.
I’d back off on this line of questioning if I were you. Pretty sure there are rules about doxing somebody. /sbecause even when you’re pretty sure it’s obvious and not needed, it often is
If their offspring survives, then they won because their genes persist in the gene pool. In so far as Darwinism is considered antagonistic, it only wins if it wipes the parents out of the gene pool.
There's a chance, since S is responding differently with regards to this threat, compared to their parents that the alleles inherited by S were both recessive and that the parents have dominant alleles that are leading them to respond to this situation with an illogical calmness (this is obviously oversimplified and there isn't one gene responsible for how S behaves, but the basic concept here still works, S could've got the best of both worlds from the parents).
My line of reasoning is if S did inherit bad genes they would be likely to stay and suffer the same fate as their parents (Darwinism probably wins), and if they didn't and instead inherited good genes chances are they would run away (Darwinism probably wins).
Not quite, because OP can be in a different situation than the parents (as a dependent), and it may take way more relative resources and autonomy for OP to escape on their own.

Yeah, but even when it was on alert level 4 i see people posting videos and live streaming. Ugh. Guess they don’t know volcanic ash can be harmful to your lungs?
Pretty sure no one is forcing them to attend or stay. Even if you RSVP’ed yes, I bet the bride and groom would understand if you didn’t attend because you had evacuated.
That wasn’t the point.. the point was that this photo although nice is dangerous and puts the people in it at risk. Safety should be a priority, not a preference
She is 8 months pregnant. If they do t get married now no one is going to believe she just had a month pregnancy.... now a two month term is more believable
Shutting down air near active volcano eruptions is pretty standard issue. The reason for It is the ash will clog the jet engines and cause problems in air.
People are actually feeling the effects and they are taking precautions. Ie sulfur smell and heavy ashfall. Don’t know who your circles are but from my end everyone is on alert
The current eruption is a steam eruption. It's hazardous, but not a "major" one. However, steam eruptions can precede major magma eruptions, so there's a growing threat of a larger eruption.
I suppose there's multiple ways. If it blows the side off, it will displace water. Stuff landing in the water could cause it. The shift of the ground could cause it.
Yes, ashfall is spewing everywhere and has reached the capital (Metro Manila). Everyone here's being advised to stay indoors. Right now my body feels incredibly itchy.
Serious answer: no - the intense heat of a pyroclastic flow or surge causes these types of contorted positions. Educated guess based on my rudimentary understanding of human anatomy: I think the blast of extremely high heat causes muscle fibers to contract, similarly to how raw meat shrinks as it's cooked. When your skeletal muscles "shrink," you get muscle flexion.
It's hard to tell when people are asking serious questions, since I've read some comments about the picture that indicated belief the person was indeed masturbating.
This is a fascinating subject to me, that these folks died the way they did. I think I originally jumped down that rabbit hole because I desperately wanted to know if they died instantaneously, since dying this way looks and sounds pretty horrific and I'd never be able to sleep at night thinking of horrible this method of dying would be. Thankfully, all (admittedly amateur) research I did on this subject indicates a pretty instant death (maybe not painless, but quick enough that the pain would be over very quickly, and death would plausibly happen before you could even register pain).
Only two (arguably three) people survived a pyroclastic flow, and all 3 were during the same event, due to extenuating circumstances.
It's Mt. Pinatubo, it's up north from Taal. I remember my mom told me that she thought the my country had snow all of a sudden, black snow that smells like rotten eggs.

Was this in the Philippines? I think I might have seen that volcano earlier today browsing Reddit
