Burning Man is officially ending today after 10 days in the Nevada desert. While many people are taking home memories that will last them a lifetime, the rest of us are still pre-occupied with the video of Flume eating his girlfriend’s ass, or at least sticking his nose in it, while on a stage at the event.
Two days later, and the news is still going viral — and why wouldn’t it? It’s the perfect combination of absurd (but becoming normalized) act, absurd (but becoming gentrified) setting, and a notable celebrity/musician. Not to mention the news broke on Labor Day and somehow the video became co-opted as a metaphor for American freedom.
EDM DJs in particular had a field day on Twitter referencing the Flume video, as you can plainly see from the over two dozen tweets below. You can see the video, still up on Reddit, here. 
why does flume eating ass still look mad cute????
