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.

Sometimes it takes failing several times before you’ve learned enough to do it correctly. Not everything is “study the process fully and thoroughly, and do it perfectly the first time! 😤”

You cannot learn anything without failing. The fact we don't embrace this culturally is a tragedy.
