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.

Dose makes the poison. Most bitter flavors (that you eat) aren't really meant to discourage you from eating them, it's really meant for insects.

Plant: I will make an unappetizing flavor to prevent myself from getting eaten

Humans: finally, some good fucking food
