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.

Electricity is remarkably simple. Children make machines that can make electricity since all you need to do is chemistry or move a magnet relative to a wire. You can make electricity you can feel by rubbing a balloon on your hair
