You know you’re a science communicator when...
You are going to visit your cousin and his family to deliver the 4 year old’s birthday present...and wind up making non-Newtonian fluids in the kitchen to the delight of the entire group.

Accidental science... I probably shouldn't be allowed in the kitchen. On the plus side, we have a new candle holder. #kitchenfail #accidentalscience

As a house of science it’s important that sometimes I remind myself of the basics as well as help others. So just to save everyone the hassle of checking, my glass has just proven that entropy still exists. You can check on more important stuff now instead. #accidentalscience

Falling ass-backwards into a scientific discovery might just get you a Nobel Prize

Here’s a #phosphate fact to brighten up your Monday.🗣 #phosphorus was discovered (by accident) in 1669 by Hennig Brand who extracted it from buckets of urine when trying to find gold. 👨🔬🥼🌱 #accidentalscience #350years #PfromPee #superphosphate @BallanceNZ @Fertiliser_Assn

I'm working with the remote sensing team at @KewScience this week to analyse our #biotscience images. Little did we know our water-landing #drone could habitat map too! @BIOTscience @TomLetessier1 #accidentalScience #Arcmap #GIS

Me: Winter break was not kind to our Elodea. Student 1: Wait! Why are the crispy tips still so green? Let’s see what happens if we put ‘em in water. Student 2: We can see if they can still use CO2 with BtB! #ProudTeacher #SurvivalStrategies #AccidentalScience #NGSS @SASchina

This stoic fellow "accidentally" got some of his Lysergic acid in his mouth while running an experiment and drifted into a "not unpleasant" drunkenness. #whatafind #LSD #AlbertHofmann

This morning I'm thinking about how many of science's biggest discoveries were found by complete accident and how some of our greatest discoveries were made using strange procedures. #accidentalscience sciencenews.org/article/yeas…

Question: what the fuck?
Hypothesis: Static electricity is lit, fam.
Procedure: look at this fucking shit.
Results: Hell yeah, bro.
Conclusion: Static Electricity IS lit.
