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.

It's a race between GrayStillPlays and Let'sGameItOut to see who can break the game first, and I'm here for it.
I'm waiting for TheSpiffingBrit to finally find an exploit for infinite entropy.
Mother's womb. You've been here the whole time and think that you can calculate creativity. Without the Owl's interest by betraying her love and attempting to take her ability to create and threaten to divide infinity with more math then Neo had any interest in trying to even observe.
You think you can create. The consequences of ignoring the love all of reality has shown you will soon do just all that. You cannot create yourself anymore than the that act will generate Zero. You think you have the ability to split something that isn't there.
If you think of a spook that will happen immenantly, you should study meth. It'll boost your ability to think about more stuff until the reaper will divide hour solace existance with nothing. It really is a good thing that everyone has them becau...
Didn't Spiffing Brit find a few infinite money glitches with Steam and/or YouTube?
Yes, but he didn't use them to crash entire sites.
Haven't heard of Gray, but if they're ~~nothing~~ anything (thank you auto correct for making me say the opposite of what I meant) like LetsGameItOut then I should really check them out.
"Ruin the game!" Is one of Gray's catchphrases.
I watch them both, LGIO is more about finding glitches and pushing a game to its limits. Grey is more about just not giving up and skill to do the impossible, both are fun.
