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 mean down here we just embrace the kudzu. Ok, that’s not true. Down here if you sit for too long, but not as long as you’d think. The kudzu embraces you.

Kudzu is a wildly useful plant. I sometimes regret never taking the opportunity to forage it when I lived in Georgia.

Yes but it’s still invasive and shouldn’t be there

I mean it's already there and isn't going anywhere, might as well make the best of a bad situation and get some good out of it.
