That's not uncommon or unexpected.
Many decades ago I worked at the sierra natural history museum in california. It on a college campus and it has a Richter scale within the confines of the museum
Classes more or less released for lunch at the same time every day past a certain point due to teachers union agreements. The Richter scale would always register a seismic event just from students migrating from the classrooms to the various food venues and seating areas. We had to make a note on the printout (yes I'm that old)
- That's really interesting! Thanks for sharing!
I don't want this community to have celebrity news in it
- It's science news that happens to involve a celebrity.
  
  Seismic activity caused by large groups of people moving together is a well known and documented phenomenon.
  The focus of the article is that her quake was bigger than other previous man-made quakes during massive events in the same location and is presented as a proof/show of how popular Taylor Swift is and how passionate are their fans. (much wow).
  If you think "Fans of X celebrity are very "energetic"" is a news article that should be posted here its fine, its news after all and people seem to like it, but lets not pretend this is a scientific article in any way.

  It's celebrity news regarding a known white supremacist, her fanbase is notoriously disgusting and racist and often attacks people of color.
  This community doesn't need that kind of garbage, there's plenty of it on reddit
- just block user.
- Downvote and move on
Taylor: “I’m just gonna shake shake shake — whoa! Too much shake!”
One of the most overrated artists.
swifties are on another level, eh?
- Legion of boom did it first.

Big deal, I do that every time I have Benefiber with a cheese pizza
Did the Google alerts work this time?
This beats the Beast Quake! That was a 2.0.
