A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.
Thank God this meme was muted. I had my volume on max and that mouse would have blown out my eardrums.
But seriously, please just spend the 10 seconds it takes to reverse image search and find a better copy, or ideally the original so you can link to the creator's post.

I hate that the AI slop that copied this style is ruining my ability to enjoy the original
I find the unbalanced microfuge triggering.
Perfectly balanced, as all things should be.
I got this vibe from fridge. One of the reasons I often put some frozen hornets in those, no packaging. Deters people from doing stupid things.
This is the first thing I saw. I'm so triggered. I have a broken centerfuge lid on my desk rn that unbalanced everything for years. I think I'm going to keep it to remind me that "this too shall pass."
I'm glad it's not just me
You can tell this is accurate because there are no brown people involved.
Nah, top left is totally one of them hardcore STEM ladies from Uruguay
They're all in the lab working ridiculously long hours.
all you had to do was follow the god-damn experimental design, CJ
Who's the bigger villain: Trump or Reviewer #2?
Reviewer 2 didn't read my paper and makes it my problem. Trump didn't read a book in his life and makes it the world's problem.
Reviewer #2, he's in it for the love of the game, Trump is doing this for money
This would make a great sequel to Bully
Parafilm representation! I love that stuff. I totally, absolutely didn't used to completely mummify samples we sent away to the miserable dicks at our sister lab...
I just love the feeling of when it stretches.
I love the stuff. There are so many tools I use that I'd love at home, parafilm is one of them. The other is a hot plate/magnetic stir bar I'd use for soup/cooking.
They are awful for cooking, believe me, I have a home lab.
Induction hobs are great for lab though, except for glass vessels, of course.
So we're normalising AI-made memes now,eh?
More than likely not AI: https://sketchingscience.org/
I guess we now know what the AI has been trained on
How have you determined that this is AI? The proliferation of actual AI slop is bad enough without people out here claiming everything is slop.
So we're normalising AI-made memes now,eh?
I'm just here for a laugh, dont care how its made but this is probably not AI (website and insta with previous drawings, and the only detector I trust says not AI). Shame to see you spread hate and then hit an actual artist with it.
Death to ai images
what makes you think this is ai?
Vibes, mostly
not the same guy, but bottom-right image has inconsistencies in how one would usually render water.
the bottom puddle covers the line it goes over from, while the top puddle doesn't
This aint AI bud, someone already provided source website and also look at the text on the parafilm. Image models are getting much better at text but all that small text on the parafilm packaging is too good for ai. Also on the parafilm it has the creators website written out.
