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.

I stand corrected. I should have checked; I mean, I'm not a quantum astrophysicist.

I just woke up and read that as "quantum aristocrat".

Lol. For all I know I could be a quantum aristocrat, but whenever I open my bank account its wave function collapses to about $300
