A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.

  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

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

Honey bees also actively take pollen back to their hive, meaning relatively little of it is spread to other flowers. They're also often involved in pollen theft, where they take pollen, but don't spread it appropriately at all.
