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.

Unfortunately, wealth determines your place in the military as well. If you come from a well to do family, chances are you will be able, capable and have the connections and ability to rank up and even find a good position in the organization and have lots of opportunities.

Otherwise, if you come from nothing, you'll start off as canon fodder and maybe, just maybe, you might be able to afford a house some day.
