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.

  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

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

Wait. Shouldn't the cat be in both boxes, though? The two states are dead or alive and not nonexistent or existent

The cat's a Jedi. It fades away when it dies.
