Let’s Science the Shit Out of This, or Let’s Shit This Science Up—Prompts from Bad Science Tweets

Science is only as good as the reproducibility of its studies and useful only if people listen to actual scientists and doctors, except if they spout off some shit about aliens and the pyramids or make a light-hearted poem about the low risk of COVID-19 versus the flu. But for now, let’s make science just as dumb as an Administration trying to push people off of healthcare during a pandemic.

For the first prompt, use one of the following tweets from the Bad Science Twitter account as a ghostline. Go off from there. Have fun.

For the second prompt, write a poem using the following word list taken from the tweets above: “share,” “tomorrow,” “loves,” “wind” (either noun or verb), “lies,” “pair,” “years,” “lifetime,” and “shame.”

Bonus prompt: ekphrastic challenge time! Have fun with these frat boys.
