If you are here asking: "Is this a science meme?"
Probably, yes. We use the Dawkins definition of meme: a replicating idea, not just an image macro with a fact on it. A good post here doesn't need to teach you something. It needs to make you ask something: who, what, where, when, and especially why or how.
Science isn't a filing cabinet of facts, it's a conversation. For example, a photo of an eel or other localized wildlife counts because most people never see one, and wonder is the first step of inquiry. A car meme counts if it makes you curious about what's under the bonnet. If you want to talk about something you noticed in the world, chances are someone else wants to talk about it too.
We moderate for vibe, not category. Pruning is light, especially where a post creates interesting discussion. Experimenting is encouraged.
See the pinned paper on Shitposting as Public Pedagogy if you want the academic case for why this works.

This is why I choose 'Fiduciary Responsibility' as my safeword.
That Fallout show was really good. I can't believe It took until this week for me to watch it.
I wasn't entirely sold until the guy wiped his dick on the curtains.
I was sold from the sets. The fact that the fonts and everything looked goddamn identical had me enthralled. When every single camera angle started to make me think of the cinematic killshots or every tiny thing carried over from the games like NPCs that don't talk to you or clipping into the floor or the deep psychological horror combined with goddamn near whimsy?
I was fucking stunned. I was watching the pilot with a friend I met here on Lemmy and he can attest to it. I didn't shut the fuck up the entire time throughout the episode because I kept just cackling. @Robolemmy@lemmy.dbzer0.com can confirm lol
He was fuckin my chickens
Yeah... that line also sent me over the fucking moon. "You mean use my cock?" and "So you wanna make my cock explode now?" also killed me
