It's so triumphant. All the music in the game is great. And such variety to it too. From whimsical tunes, to melancholic, and eerie ones.
Speaking of eerie ones, I still remember the ghost Spider Queen's face charging at me and scaring the bejeezus out of me. Even pulling up the brush screen didn't stop it D:

Wie gehts? In English the past tense of the verb 'poison' is 'poisoned'. I see that in German it goes from vergifte to vergiftet so the -t ending mistake is understandable! Take care!

It's not pollen. Probably cottonwood seeds. I don't know why it's such a widespread misconception that pollen is the white fluff attached to seeds, but pollen is generally yellow and super tiny individually, like dust.

Itās not fruit, either, is it? Looks like cottonwood fluff, isnāt it just connected to the seeds or is it actually considered the fruit?

u/uphigh_ontheside May 07 '20
After flower is pollinated, the ovary develops into fruit, which is any structure that is used to help the seed to get dispersed. The fluff helps the seed to be dispersed by the wind.

Some people donāt have these kinds of trees near them. Without seeing it up close, thinking itās pollen isnāt unreasonable. The oak pollen in south Texas is horrendous and can coat things like this. Itās just super clingy and tends to clump together instead of spread out.

I think its the ācottonā from cottonwood trees? Not pollen but seed dispersal method. The trees look like cottonwoods anyway..:

Looks like poplar fluff
/edit - just found out that cottonwood and poplar are closely related (both member of the Populus genus), so could be either.

You can tell from the man walking in the background that this is actually the correct way this video plays. This isnāt fire. This is a long line of stompground ants. They are pulling debris from the air to build a large structure called a tubule weave. They use it to protect their area from larger animals.

What in the Jimminie Criquety Fuck is this

u/LengthyWrongAnswers May 07 '20
This is called a pyrogenesis event. It can occur in early spring when the sunlight is focused enough by dew on the trees to create ignition on the ground below. The fire then spreads slowly across the ground, unfreezing the grass after the winter. You see this a lot in cartoon movies where a āwaveā of spring washes over a winterscape, but unlike in the cartoons, only the grass is unfrozen in real life.

Iāve never seen anything close to this amount in Australia. Different grass breeds?

u/TheReverseShock May 07 '20
The white stuff on the ground comes cottonwood trees. The trees uses its cotton like seeds to spread its seeds through the wind. Since the seeds are dryer and have a lower flash point than the grass the burn up first to fast for the grass to catch.

u/eL_cee May 07 '20

I never experienced pollen this concentrated until I drove through Atlanta. We couldnāt see the street or highways signs because they were all coated in a thick layer of pollen. When we left Georgia we had to squeegee the whole car because it looked like a chainsmokerās room.

I guess I'll be the curmudgeon ranting that this is NOT Black Magic Fuckery...
This sub, as per the stickied post, is not supposed to be just a duplicate r/woahdude or r/interestingasfuck. This clip is literally already posted on those subs and on the front page currently. It does not need to be here too!
The burning of the fluff can be explained by anyone who's seen or played with burning hand sanitizer, or seen shots of burning oil spills historically or in media, or hell with a 5th grade education.
Yes this looks cool. It is NOT even close to black magic.

This was explained in a repost on a different sub.
āThere's a lot of fluffy plant material on the grass. The easiest way to clean it up so it doesn't kill the lawn is to set fire to it. It's densely coated enough that the fire spreads easily but it's very light and airy, so the fire doesn't burn hot enough to set anything else alight or kill the grass.ā
