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.

You don't need to do this. If properly pruned, crape myrtles will form a canopy over the sidewalk that doesn't interfere with pedestrians and actually provides shade; if topped like the picture, they will form an unruly mass of growth right at head height.

I don't prune like this.
