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.

Yeah, pretty much. They are considered pests down there. Imagine a swarm of locusts descending on your farm, except the locusts are each the size of your hand and are intelligent enough to work together when committing crimes. That's how Australian farmers see budgies.
