minus-squarePowderhorn@beehaw.orgMlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 months agoI asked ChatGPT for a parody, and it isn’t terrible … The measles made a show, (clap-clap-clap-clap) Like politics gone feral! We argued yes and no, (clap-clap-clap-clap) On facts that ain’t empirical. The fever’s burnin’ bright, (clap-clap-clap-clap) While leaders trade in breezes— They fund a culture fight, (clap-clap-clap-clap) But can’t outshout the Measles! We scroll the daily news, (clap-clap-clap-clap) And wonder who it pleases— While pundits choose their views, (clap-clap-clap-clap) And skip the real diseases. They posture left and right, (clap-clap-clap-clap) We’re stuck with mid-century freezes— It’s 2025, alright, (clap-clap-clap-clap) So why the vintage Measles? We’ve marched and voted long, (clap-clap-clap-clap) For better stuff than these is— So raise your voice in song, (clap-clap-clap-clap) And raise your guard ’gainst Measles!
