    Roaches infest your home and spread diseases. Butterflies live outside and spread pollen.

            Google translate for the Polish comment:

            Why does everyone hate pollen, I ask myself for fuck’s sake?

            Dude was just having some fun with similar sounding words

            Something is telling me there is a language in which pollen sounds similar to their word for Poles. I’m getting German vibes.

        You hate pollen from plants that evolved to spread it without the help of butterflies and other insects. These plants’ pollen doesn’t float around causing allergies.

Rules

  1. Don’t throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
  2. Keep it rooted (on topic).
  3. No spam.
  4. Infographics welcome, get schooled.


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.
