The Yellowstone super volcano is supposedly going to erupt a LOT sooner than some thought:
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/2017/10/yellowstone-supervolcano-erupt-faster-thought-science/
Meh. It's been a good run.
That too.
Maybe the asteroid I'm rooting for can hit the super volcano. That would be cool. Now I want to play a post apocalypse RPG.
Next on SyFY: Mega Asteroid vs Super 'Cano - It's Time to Kick Ash!
That sounds exactly like something they would show. :DD
Ash vs. the Evil Not Quite Dead Super Volcano?
lava sharks eat the asteroid.
I hope you all realize you just collectively gave away about 400 million worth of B-movie profit.
If it's got Lesbian Vampires in it, I'm in.

The bikini wax costs are prohibitive.
A waxed lesbian werewolf would be...odd.
Quite.
Heh.

Not to mention going through too many cosmetologists in the process.
In case anyone doesn't read the article, the headline is dramatically misleading. They aren't saying the volcano may erupt in the next few decades. They're saying it can prepare faster than previously thought, needing decades instead of centuries for the process. ::)
NationalGraphiclickbait. ;)

I think we're all straying from the fact that we should start practicing worship of our lava rock overlords.

You gotta read the Diane Duane Star Trek novels. She describes Ensign Horta as looking like a 'deep dish pan pizza with extra cheese'.
I'm thinking it's 50/50 Little Kim will hack the asteroid and crash it into the Super Volcano but he'll miss it and hit Morocco instead and nobody will ever know. Except for..... us. :o And maybe Doris Day.
Doris Day knows all.

I really, really want to work for NASA's Planetary Defense Coordination Office.
You'd think they'd want the services of the eminent Dr. Quest

"Hello. You have reached the Planetary Defense Coordination Hotline. If this is an actual Planetary Defense Emergency.... push 1"
"If this is an Alien Invasion... push 2".
"If this is an Asteroid Related Event... push 3".
" If this is a North Korean Related Event... push 4".
"If this is Doctor Quest calling AGAIN... Your Job Application and Secret Decoder Ring is in the mail". ::)
