    Inside a tall building in Tokyo on 3/11. Feeling that building sway back and forth was the definition of NOT FUCKING FUN

      I’ve been in tall buildings during an earthquake before, and yeah, it’s scary.

      But if you look into how buildings are fashioned to withstand earthquakes, the swaying is built-in. You want that sway, basically.

      And you were in probably one of the safest cities to have an earthquake when in a building ever.

      Still, scary!!

        Yeah, in the back of my mind I knew I was probably in one of the safest places I could be, but the lizard brain in me couldn’t help but scream “DANGER”
