      For anybody also having a hard time reading that partially folded flag, or finding the text within the 1000 words article, it’s this:

      “When the power of love beats the love of power the world knows peace”

      Agreed with the other comment, that’s the most useless sign ever.

        Even more useless was celebrating their engagement that way. My wife and I just posted about it on Facebook and went out for burgers or something.

            but you have to admit that while they are a new meme template, they look kinda badass

            The whole point of social media is to be an attention whore. You’re on social media right now.

            Yeah, but who doesn’t post to Facebook occasionally?

  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.
