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.

I know and it made me laugh so hard I had to explain it to my spouse! I tried to play along, but I guess text is not the right medium for that :D

And yeah, molecular phylogeny is the source of real drama sometimes ;)

If only ~~Stapelias~~ Ceropegias could talk...
