The technology illiterate users are outing themselves here, their app of choice is likely downscaling the image and they haven't figured out there's a button to show the full sized image.

It’s a meme for ants.

Yeah this might have been interesting if I could read it. I think I already know a handful of them.

You got any more of them pixels, boss? Is this a very subtle April Fools prank?

The Polish word for April is coming from the word „kwitnąć”, which means „flowering“.

I believe "blooming" would be more accurate

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago

You are correct. Sorry for the mistake.

Nice to see Spaniards still carrying the legacy of Al Andalus ("Abril" is the Arabized version of April).

We really owe a big chunk of our culture to the Arabs, even to this day. Especially in southern Spain.

Portugal is wrong again. Month names are always capitalized. It should be "Abril"
