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.

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

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

Sure, they have their role to play in this ecosystem. But tell me why I should care for possible reactions due to their utter eradication? We will kill this planet anyway in every way, the mosquitoes aren't gonna change anything. And me, doing whatever, won't change our specie's course either. Greed signed that fate a long time ago.

That said though, my initial comment wasn't meant dead-serious.
