Have I lost track of what memes are?

Oh you mean a discretized, and spreadable idea, that propagate through populations? Yeah lost have lost the plot and think it just means like reaction gifs or wojaks.

Nah, just a low effort shitpost, move on with your day.

If you look at things closely they look different than they do far away.

Very insightful.

Lol. fair, but if it were a sea of flowers you'd see that in the aerial imagery too.

[–] Mothra@mander.xyz 4 points 1 year ago

Wouldn't that be because of the season? You're not supposed to see flowers all year round. Also plants don't cover everything evenly, you will have patches

That's pretty much what I expected. I was basically imagining the plains biome in Minecraft.

So… the same thing?

Huh.

Left is either a mountain meadow or springtime on the Great Plains of the United States. Right is Summer in most "High Plains" areas.

It's actually a planted wildflower garden, with the intent of 'prairie restoration'
