Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!

A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.



Rules

  1. Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Haha, I do quick dumps. Maybe when I have more time, but in the meantime you guys usually pull through digging around, and you usually find some extra cool stuff too. :)

So basically you're doing the "don't ask, just say something on the Internet to issue a challenge" method of learning stuff?

Sometimes its a fine line between infographs and memes. Sometimes it isn't

Sometimes, sometimes I am curious to know more too, sometimes I know things are right, sometimes I know they are wrong but it makes for good conversation... I pick from the meme firehose (feeds) ones I know will make for interesting threads. It is a vibe. It does not take me long to get the memes, so it is a fun passive thing. I do this for fun too. :) It is also why I insist that we use "meme" in the Dawkins sense (see sidebar).
