Were Those Strange Waves Rippling Across Earth Caused By Magma Shfits? (theguardian.com)
"Strange waves rippled across earth and only one person spotted them," reported Forbes, noting that the seismologist then "quickly put out an alert to see if other systems detected the same unusual wave."
"Seismographs picked up the waves as they traveled as far as New Zealand, Chile, Hawaii and Canada. In total, the waves were detected as far as 11,000 miles from their origin, ringing for 20 minutes or more minutes as they passed... As these waves rippled across the globe there were surprisingly no reports of anyone feeling the rumbling."
The Weather Channel now reports that "There was no earthquake large enough to have started these low-frequency signals. Scientists believed a magma shift caused the rumblings," citing a recent interview with Stephen Hicks, a seismologist at the University of Southampton. The Guardian reports: Hicks believes magma may suddenly have drained from a volcanic chamber about 10 miles under the seafloor near Mayotte, setting off the deep rumble that spread around the world. While strong enough to be picked up by sensitive seismometers, the vibrations would have been minuscule: far smaller than a millimetre. "It's something that you wouldn't perceive," he said. Pierre Briole, a geoscientist at Ecole Normale Superieure in Paris, has reached a similar conclusion. He believes that a third of a cubic mile of magma may have drained from a volcanic chamber under the seafloor, unleashing deep vibrations when its roof collapsed.
Much of the seismic sleuthing played out on social media with professional and amateur scientists working together. "Overall, [it has been] a fascinating demonstration of open science on Twitter and engagement between scientists and citizen seismologists," said Hicks.

Don't worry, creimer just ripped a big one. That's all. Nothing to see here.
POCOPHONE F1
Description sounds similar to the Bloop Sound in 1997.
Q told us in advance that the shot would be heard round the world.
17 seconds interval.
17=Q
Just wait until the magnet poles swap. No one's experienced that before and it's sure going to cause a stir.

What the hell is a shfits?? Short/slang for Shit-fits?
Magma 'shfits'
Momma fell out of bed.
I think I shfitted in my pants.
Global Warming!!!! Oh Noes!!!!!
Corporatism != Free Market
Caused by black hats activating machinery, which was immediately taken over by the Q team.
Proof? The peaks were 17 seconds apart. 17 = Q. Plus, read the Q drops: https://qanon.pub/
Q already said it was new top secret technology forced online. Research it for yourselves. Do you even lift bro?
Errrr muh gerd! Ho - ree - shfit!
The rumblings were caused by a seismological device planted by a probe that landed several thousand years ago and has been monitoring our environment. It finally went off, sending low frequency pulses as a signal to a quantum relay station that is embedded just under the surface of the dark side of this moon. The quantum relay sent a signal to the approaching space armada that the earth and its inhabitants will be ready for conquest and enslavement due to environmental changes which will destabilize nations across the world. Currently the aliens are amassing and preparing to send their fleet which will be here within the next 3 years. No, Iâ(TM)m not smoking crack. Why do you ask?
I'm pretty sure about this.
Therefore, I propose we tax everyone.
The earth is throwing a
sh echo -e 0$ '\bfit'.
Right ... because a shift in magma causes identical wave signatures that repeat every 17 seconds ...
It's exactly what Q stated it was ... classified tech that was switched on.
It's pretty difficult to be further away than that, isn't it?

Why is it surprising that nobody perceived the tremor if it was too weak to be perceived?
I made chili again. I had to do something with the leftover ground turkey. It was a big hit, but I fear magma shits may just be the start.
How is the Riemann zeta function like Trump rallies? Both have an endless number of trivial zeros.
Could these seismic waves have indirectly caused the whale strandings that occurred about the same time in Australia and NZ? Maybe interfering with their sonar capabilities?

Typo in the headline. The "i" and the "f" are transposed -- it should be "Magma Shifts"
Q is 17? Like "17 Seconds of Spring"? Comrade Isaev, Parteigenosse Stirlitz, ist zat you again?
"Hicks believes magma may suddenly have drained from a volcanic chamber about 10 miles under the seafloor near Mayotte"
This implies that there are large voids that the magma can drain into. The "10 miles" figure puts this shift beneath the earth's crust. If there are voids in the mantle, why aren't these shifts more frequent? How did the voids form? It would have made the article much more useful if this had been mentioned.
