A meme featuring the "two buttons" format. In the top panel, a hand hovers hesitantly between two red buttons. One button is labeled "diatribe: peer review is broken!" and the other "our lab is proud to present...". In the bottom panel, a distressed man in a superhero outfit wipes sweat from his forehead, clearly anxious. The caption reads: "academics when 1 paper gets accepted and 1 paper get rejected". The meme highlights the conflicting emotions researchers face when dealing with peer review outcomes.
