  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.

This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

You know... I've seen a lot of your comments and they always throw me because my cats name is also Una. I think I've said that. But none more than that one lmfao

Love the Lemmy community recognising each other. ❤️

I'm new to posting in this community but due to me making (at this point) tens of thousands of posts across multiple accounts? I tend to recognize names pretty regularly.

It just feels like the internet of old. It’s awesome.

It's one of the reasons that I've stuck around for sure. This place feels like Reddit did back when I joined like... 15 years ago or something. Just hoping we don't develop one of those stupid fucking mottos like "The narwhal bacons at midnight" or some shit

I wake a good 7 hours earlier than that, but I'm in a different timezone, it's probably afternoon your time, and definitely afternoon on someone's time

This is why you're employee of the month.

Here's your sign.

(If you're old like I, you might think this is a Bill Engvall reference, and it is, but as compensation I offer you the cover of Time magazine.)

I’m kind of useless in the morning. Can we pencil it in for, like, 3?

Tell you what, let's just do it next week when you've had the opportunity to rest.
