Replying to this from the small/stupid questions megathread:Goons Are Great posted:Oh I love Formica Rufa, wait, I have this gif of them doing their venom spraying comedy bit, where is it I actually went from writing the post you respond to here to your BYOB thread to read more about ants and just read the post with that image before seeing this post. That whole millions of ants on the same day thing is super cool and now I'm gonna go outside and look for flying ant swarms.

I saw some ant houses: This is a small one at the start of my walk. These two are the same hill from two directions. They found a good spot with cover from the elements! This one was loving huge and I'm pretty sure goes straight through the roots of that fallen tree. It was hard to get a picture but the whole thing is on another, lower, but much wider rise in the wood floor that was also filled with them. The whole thing must have been like 3 meters in diameter and the constructed anthill was also really big. https://i.imgur.com/16GTcFQ.mp4 Here are two ants being very helpfil to each other. The third one you can see running away was helping too at first but I guess it was a bad friend and gave up. Rude.

Goons Are Great posted:I have never played SimAnt because that came out before I was born actually, but I did buy Empires of the Undergrowth just five minutes ago after reading about it and seeing a goon talking about what it is, I am very pumped to play it and see if it's cool and whether they are biologically correct! (they are not, because they portray Leafcutter Ants as one species with many castes, which is untrue, it's an entire genus - Atta - and their caste variation internally and externally is way less extreme). gently caress that noise, find sim ant instead, it's awesome.
