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.

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

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

Acetone evaporates quickly. You just let it sit for a minute and it'll dispose of itself

Yeah, I don't work in a lab, but if I clean something in the shop with Acetone, I leave the rag to dry on the side of the trash can. If I think it's a lot, I'll put it outside to evaporate or burn it.
