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.

Edit: I should read the information from the link before commenting. Nevermind!

~~That's probably more due to their chemical identifiers than sight. Ants communicate with each other through pheromones, and a reflection wouldn't do that. It would be like someone serving you a steak that smelled like nothing. You'd know something was wrong.~~
