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.

There are three states of matter

THERE ARE THREE STATES OF MATTER

BTW there are 4 states of matter.

Actually there's like 20 states of matter.

Public science education strikes again.

Easy change, "let's learn three states of matter" vs "there are three states of matter"

Shit like this is why people still think Pluto's a planet. God forbid a kid get curious about whether there's more than 3 states. Might as well throw the whole kid away at that point.

Overwhelming children is not a good idea.

I wouldnt teach sin to a group of children I'm trying to teach basic addition to. Heck, it's not even a good idea to tell them about negative numbers at that point.
