Some great talent in time for the weekend. Remy does The Beatles. … The money tap was already running before the visit from a virus. Someone’s going to have to break the bad news…
Written and Performed by Remy | Produced and Edited by Austin Bragg Music tracks and mastering by Ben Karlstrom h/t Alexandra 9.2 out of 10 based on 42 ratings May 23rd, 2020 | Tags: Funny, Satire & Parody, YouTube | Category: Funny stuff, Global Warming, Satire & Parody |  Print This Post | | Peacetime maximums on Boxing Day are just not what they used to be The ABC is afraid that Boxing day cricket may “go extinct” due to the heat. Chris Gillham at WAClimate.net graphed the December 26 test temperatures in Melbourne all the way back to 1855. Obviously, using ABC-ScienceTM (absurdio-extrapolatory et al) what we are really looking at is ominous cooling. To help the ABC, let’s adjust headlines accordingly. “Injuries are forecast to rise as maximum temperatures fall in Melbourne on Boxing Day.” The trend is clear in a supercomputer somewhere. If this decline continues the second polynomial will hit zero in 440 years. Cricketers won’t know what heat is. The graphs here confirm the newspaper stories of a history of phenomenal Boxing day heat — especially in the late 1800s and circa World War II. Ergo, wars cause global warming (in Melbourne, on Dec 26). …This is bound to change… Two things to keep in mind, apart from designing a team beanie, is that many of the temperatures in the 1800s weren’t from Stevenson screens and so are debatable. On the other hand, the urban heat island effect is strong and site maintenance is weak, so […] January 1st, 2020 | Tags: ABC, BOM, Gillham (Chris), Satire & Parody | Category: FakeNews, Funny stuff, Global Warming, Media-matters, Satire & Parody | Print This Post | | Watch Spock in the 1970s describing how climate scientists were predicting a mile high wall of ice that could cover Canada down to Boston “in your lifetime”, and it may already have started. Commenter Bulldust found Gary Orsum’s droll commentary on that documentary. Great stuff. Best part begins from 5:45 mins on: In 1977 the worst winter in a century struck the United States… one desperate night in Buffalo, eight people froze to death… the brutal Buffalo winter might become common all over the United States. Climate experts believe the next ice age is on its way. Temperatures have been dropping for thirty years… With 40 years headstart on climate scares, Orsum has all the answers. Leonard Nimoy: Arctic cold and perpetual snow could turn most of the inhabitable portions of our planet into an Arctic wasteland. Sure says Orsum, but there are ways to allieviate that threat even with your primitive caveman technology, just get the kids to take Fridays off school. The opening five minutes explaining how he’s not a denier though he keeps being called one. Readers here have lived that landscape already. Just say “lukewarmer” and […] December 13th, 2019 | Tags: Ice Age Scare, YouTube | Category: Cryosphere, Geology, Global Warming, Paleolithic, Satire & Parody | Print This Post | | This is striking new finding by ABC journalist Ann Arnold that for some reason has not yet been published in a science journal. Some mystery remains, however as to which dataset could rule out any and all fires in the last 30,000,000 years, or indeed which dataset could prove that those forests and trees have existed in the same place continuously. We keenly await more details on the high resolution sedimentary pollen and missing ash deposit that could show that there were never fires, not one, especially during the Miocene when Antarctica thawed around 24 million years ago and stayed hot for ten million continuous years. It’s all the more remarkable given that temperatures have varied in the Antarctic by 15 degrees Celcius over the same period, and for 20 million years out of the last 30, it was even hotter than today. Scientists keenly look forward to seeing those error bars, though one critic, Dr Hyperbowlie suggested the p-values “might be greater than 1. ” Global Temperature estimates over the last 65 million years. Bushfires devastate rare and enchanting wildlife as ‘permanently wet’ forests burn for first time Ann Arnold, ABC, Saturday Extra These forests have […] December 2nd, 2019 | Tags: ABC, Fires, Satire & Parody | Category: FakeNews, Global Warming, Media-matters, Satire & Parody | Print This Post | | Skeptics get banned, rejected, blocked and sacked from the mainstream media yet somehow Nature has a paper on Skeptics getting too much media. Believers don’t have to be an expert to control the news agenda, just a Greenpeace activist, or a teenage girl. Skeptics on the other hand, can be Nobel Prize winners, but the BBC won’t even phone them. Nature, the former science giant, just launched the tenets of science over the event horizon. This paper is Argument from Authority rolled into false equivalence, and powered with cherry-picked errors in both category and in categorization. Nonsense on a rocket. It’s not what science is, and it’s not what journalism should be either. And Nature is supposed to be both. Judith Curry calls it The latest travesty in ‘consensus enforcement’ and the worst paper she has ever seen in a reputable journal. …. Both David Evans and I get a mention on what is effectively Nature‘s blacklist. What an honour! No really — there are 386 great names. Even more of an honour is a mention on Judith Curry’s site “blogs she’s learnt something from”. (By some freak, my name comes right after Freeman Dyson and Ivar […] August 17th, 2019 | Tags: Consensus, JoNova's Favourites, Nature, Peer Review, Satire & Parody | Category: Fashion, Funny stuff, Global Warming, Satire & Parody, Science, Science Communication | Print This Post | | It’s self congratulation disguised as “science”. The insults are passed off as universal human failings but the unmistakable message is that those who do believe in “climate change” are exempt. (Only the unbelievers have smaller minds and more selfish cortexes. ) Time Magazine: Why Your Brain Can’t Process Climate Change You’d have to be pretty stupid not to get this message: …We know—at least those of us not in the grips of outright climate denial—how bad it is. But we can’t seem to act to save the future. The Time readers who haven’t cancelled their subscriptions already may like to read this and give themselves a free shot of mojo, knowing that they can process climate change. Possibly they buy Time because it tells them they’re the gifted, superior beings they hope they might be. This is manna for those with low self esteem and meaningless lives. This is not just some random author either, Bryan Walsh, who wrote this, was TIME’s International Editor, its energy and environmental correspondent and was the Tokyo bureau chief in 2006 and 2007. As usual, it’s projection all the way down: There are many reasons why [we fail to […] August 15th, 2019 | Tags: JoNova's Favourites, Media bias, Satire & Parody | Category: FakeNews, Funny stuff, Global Warming, Media-matters, Satire & Parody, Science Communication | Print This Post | | It’s sad to watch the implosion of a Nobel Cause. Well it would be… But then DeSmog thinks providing fake documents “is in the public interest”. (Is there is a shortage of false and misleading articles around? Who knew?) This particular parody refers to Charles Johnson (who?). Hat tip: As Baa Humbug said in posting this in comments: This didn’t take long. 9.1 out of 10 based on 54 ratings February 21st, 2012 | Tags: FakeGate, Satire & Parody, YouTube | Category: Funny stuff, Global Warming, Satire & Parody | Print This Post | | |
