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.

Humans can fuck grapes with impunity
I.... I don't think I can.
Seems like a skill issue to me.
Dude, I don't mean to boast, but honestly, I think my dick is just WAY too big. Like, I would DESTROY that grape instantly if I tried. It's not just a trick of the camera angle, it just is that big. Honestly, I don't even need to get out a measuring tape to tell you that even with a massive grape, it's just not going to fit.
You're not being creative enough. You could have a bowl/cup of grapes, and use that. Or maybe alternatively you could blend/mash them up, let them dry out a bit to stiffen up, then use that.
I find that when you sign up for lemmy, you very much underestimate the extent to which the community is going to be invested in you sticking your dick in grape.
It's not a complaint, really, and it feels supportive, in a way, but it's definitely not what I was expecting. I mean, the whole area of soft fruit isn't really a theme I was considering exploring in any kind of sexual way, if you can appreciate where I'm coming from.
I take your point about the possibility but I'm still drawing a bit of a blank in the motivation department, if I'm honest.
The comment about grape seeds isn't making making me any more enthusiastic, I can tell you. No offence meant.
Yeah, this place is a very
Grape fucking
Endless politics

pick two kind of place
nothing worse than getting a grape seed stuck in your peehole...
Sounds painful. Like gallstones, but backwards. On the plus side, probably less scratchy. On the minus side, maybe more citric acid.
Nah, mainly tartaric acid...
Ah, thank you. I wasn't sure. However, I am sure that I don't want it going the wrong way up my personals.
C'mon David. They want you to. Do it for them, buddy.
The grapes? I can never tell when a grape wants some action. My whole life, I've missed every single signal. Well, that, or the grapes just don't find me attractive, like, EVER.
Not with that attitude
I just can't see it ever happening.
I don't mean any disrespect, and I don't want to kink shame, but that kinda thing is just not my bag, baby.
