Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.

Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand.

Canadian for high school level biology

[–] Jolteon@lemmy.zip 8 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Isn't high school level biology already mandatory in most countries?

Convoy = Canada

Nah, it's more a combo of bad schooling, Flatlander Dementia, Oppositional Defiant Disorder, and any kind of a stressor that populists can leverage to de-platform scientists, giving us hicks weaponized by talk show hosts masquerading as leaders into the Flu Trux Clan and their Karen Konvoy

No mention of the kitchen sink with all of that verbal flotsam and jetsom? Now that's restraint!

I had a choice between biology or chemistry. But, that was a long time ago.

[–] BurgerBaron@quokk.au 1 points 1 day ago

I was going to answer but I think my experience from 2006 - 2008 is likely not accurate anymore either 😅

What is a bio 20-30

Canadian for high school level biology

Never heard of it. Am Canadian, went to uni. Were you to say 'Chem 11' or 'Math 12', then yeah.

[–] 1egg4u@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

That's basic level, like you can pick science 20/30 or you can pick two from chemistry, physics, or bio at those levels. The mandatory one is science 30 but I think bio 30 should be baked in because we clearly did not teach enough people how their whole shit works
