In the pond's absence, apparently the reptiles of Oz went into the mother of all climate science denying jihads.
The pond was blissfully unaware, and only caught up with the news when Graham Readfearn bobbed up in the Graudian with The Australian reports ‘widespread errors’ in BoM temperature data. Where is the evidence for those big claims?
The usual suspects - Lloydie of the Amazon leading the way - were involved, together with a couple of ring ins of dubious credibility and weird credentials.
There's no need to repeat Readfearn's debunking, but the pond did like the closing flourish ...
Wilkie told Temperature Check he wasn’t asked by The Australian to comment and “felt uncomfortable” the article might have been interpreted as him having doubts about the bureau’s integrity or its climate data.
“I found The Australian’s coverage of the matter to be quite feverish, and red meat to its audience, which flooded one article with about 1,000 comments,” he said.
He had “no reason to reconsider my trust in the bureau,” he said.
Attacks on the bureau’s temperature records have been orchestrated by climate science deniers for more than 15 years. Previous episodes have been described by scientists as “harassment”. One former bureau boss described the source of previous attacks as a “fever swamp” of climate science denial that had wasted scientists’ time.
On each occasion, The Australian newspaper, rather than the scientific literature, was the journal of choice for sceptics to make claims of a conspiracy within the bureau.
In the meantime, the climate isn’t paying attention.
That last line contained a jolly link to Global heating will hit at least 1.8C, UN warns, and there are ‘no good outcomes’
The report by the Nairobi-based UN Environment Programme confirmed overshooting the 1.5C goal inscribed in the landmark Paris agreement of 2015 was now “unavoidable” and, despite some progress in addressing the human-caused climate crisis driven by burning fossil fuels, likely in the next few years.
It said: “There are no good outcomes above 1.5C”.
Heating of up to 3C above preindustrial levels could lead to glaciers losing more than a quarter of their mass by 2100, raising sea levels by up to 13cm. Global food production could decline by up to 14% by 2050 if there are not effective strategies to adapt...
And so on, and fun times guaranteed for all, and while the pond said it wouldn't look back, these zealots are as bad as the mad mullahs of Iran (actually at least the mad mullahs acknowledge climate change is real, while doing little useful about it.)
The reptiles love to talk about climate cultists, religious climate zealots and so on, but it's all projection, since none of them are scientists, and they must rely on others to deliver the required bunkum.
Should this active conspiring in the destruction of the planet be celebrated?
Probably not: as any good Xian white nationalist would know, it's way past time to invoke Revelation 11:18: "The time has come to destroy those who destroy the earth!" (GNT version)
The pond wondered if the destroyers might return for a return bout of destruction, but this day there were fresh jihads to follow...with talk of Malware's folly featuring blather about the "administrative elite", which presumably doesn't mean the "Liberal leet".
The pond did a double take at the name of the author ...
In the mind of the administrative elite, there has never been an energy policy problem that could not be fixed by taking ever more power for themselves.
By Bruce Mountain
This mountain of a man tackling a mountainous problem briefly sounded like an Old Testament prophet lashing at the heathens ...
Australians seem to be fed up with the governing elite scrounging from the people’s pockets to fund their failing grand-plan vanities.
Those who don’t sniff this breeze and set their sails accordingly will get the comeuppance that is long overdue.
Bruce Mountain is director of the Victoria Energy Policy Centre.
The pond confesses that the VEPC had passed it by, but for the curious ...it's actually a bunch of Victorian academic boffins, at a centre set up with Victorian government money... almost, you might think, fellow travellers with governing leets...
Also out and about was the Major, himself a member of the reptile leets, revealing his usual taste for Islamophobia ...
Why do these reptile media leets always blather about Australian media leets?
If the pond could banish just one word from the admittedly limited reptile hive mind vocabulary, "elite" would be it, both because of its monstrous stupidity and its hypocrisy ...
The Major blathered on in his usual Zionist way about Marxists and Greta and the left and Macron, and then went all "Western civilisation", as the reptile hordes are wont to do.
As the full piece is available in the intermittent archive, with the pond personally supervising the uploading thereto as Australian media elites ‘colour blind’ to the ugly truth of France riots, the pond decided to reduce this Major outing to just two more gobbets ...
This one's a bit of a gob stopper, reliably rabid ...
It turns out that the hysterical Major is prone to the Great Replacement Theory, an odd place for a Zionist to land ..
The conspiracy evolved from a series of false ideas that, over time, stoked the fears of white people: In 1892, British-Australian author and politician Charles Pearson warned that white people would “wake to find ourselves elbowed and hustled, and perhaps even thrust aside by people whom we looked down.” The massive influx of immigrants into Europe at the time fostered some of these fears and resulted in “white extinction anxiety.” In the U.S., it resulted in policies targeting immigration in the late 19th and early 20th century.
In France, journalist Édouard Drumont, leader of an antisemitic movement, wrote articles in the late 19th century imagining how Jews would destroy French culture. In 1909, Filippo Tommaso Marinetti, an Italian poet and supporter of Benito Mussolini, argued that war and fascism were the only cure for the world. Fascism, then and now, worked to ensure white dominance.
This was followed by the eugenics movement, an erroneous and racist theory that supported forced sterilization of Black people, the mentally ill and other marginalized groups, who were all deemed “unfit.”
The 1978 book entitled “The Turner Diaries,” a fictional futuristic account of the overthrow of the United States government, further contributed to white nationalist ideas.
Collectively, these gave rise to a global movement that attracted a wide range of white supremacist, xenophobic and anti-immigration conspiracy theories. These theories were formally codified in the work of Frenchman Renaud Camus, first in his 2010 book “L'Abécédaire de l'in-nocence” and elaborated in his 2011 book “Le Grand Remplacement.”
Cue the Major, at one with Petey boy, and the notion of breeding like rabbits to avoid the grate replacement...
The long absent lord help anyone who feels the need to "Ask The Australian" and its version of AI nonsense, unless they're interested in climate science denialism or furriner hysteria.
On the other hand, that snap of Petey boy, grinning like a prize loon, says everything that needs to be said...and always provides a lift to the pond's day ...
Luckily the immortal Rowe was to hand to celebrate for the Major ...
Or should the pond have been welcoming the return of Wilcox, with talk of the great erasure being proposed by Zionists of a Major kind?
Meanwhile, the Caterist was out and about, and frankly the pond didn't have on its bingo card the notion that the flood waters whisperer would use the movie 9 to 5 as an inspiration... In Australia, childcare has drifted from choice to control
It was such a curiosity that the pond decided to give the quarry whisperer a go, despite having personally saved the piece to the intermittent archive so that all could enjoy it at their leisure ...
On the other hand, no need to get too enthusiastic. Screen caps would do...
But surely it did get simple again, what with the Caterist simpering over 9 to 5, which the pond vaguely recalls was a Jane Fonda-inspired (not Hanoi Jane!) entertainment of a modest kind?
Gene Siskel of the Chicago Tribune gave the film 2.5 stars out of 4 and wrote, "The most pleasant surprise is the appearance of Dolly Parton, who with this one film establishes herself as a thoroughly engaging movie star. The biggest disappointment is that this Jane Fonda comedy about a trio of secretaries out to get their boss doesn't have more bite ... Instead of getting darker and darker, 'Nine to Five' gets lighter and lighter until it loses most of the energy it established so well early on." Variety stated, "Although it can probably be argued that Patricia Resnick and director Colin Higgins' script at times borders on the inane, the bottom line is that this picture is a lot of fun." Kevin Thomas of the Los Angeles Times wrote that the film "appears to be an audience pleaser that never misses an intended laugh. However, it strays so far from reality for so long that it threatens to become mired in overly complicated silliness and to lose sight of the serious satirical points it wants to make. Happily, it does pull together for a finish that's as strong as it is funny."
Gary Arnold of The Washington Post thought the film "runs a merely weak comic premise into the ground with coarse, laborious execution". He thought that Dolly Parton was the film's "only reassuring aspect", as she seemed "an instantly likable natural on the movie screen, too".[19] David Ansen of Newsweek called the film "a disappointment ... It's not wild or dark enough to qualify as a truly disturbing farce and it's too fanciful and silly to succeed as realistic satire. Politically and esthetically, it's harmless—a mildly amusing romp that tends to get swallowed up by its own overly intricate plot."
Ronald Reagan wrote in his presidential diary that he and his wife Nancy watched the film on Valentine's Day 1981. He wrote, "Funny—but one scene made me mad. A truly funny scene if the 3 gals had played getting drunk but no they had to get stoned on pot. It was an endorsement of Pot smoking for any young person who sees the picture." (links at source)
Good old Ronnie Raygun, but hey nonny no, on we go ...
As for the Caterist's blanket dismissal of that blanket assertion, don't expect details of test results, and extensive discussion thereof, expect only a certain kind of quarry whispering blankness ... or even worse, expect a tedious trudge with the Tudge ...
If trudging with Tudge is the solution, the pond couldn't work out the question ...but did note a certain irony, with the Caterist strident about politicians interfering in family, while pushing the notion that the trudging Tudge could righteously interfere .
The pond also noted that once again Petey boy was front and centre ... we must breed like rabbits to save the very fabric of society!!
The Great Replacement Theory lives on in the hive mind!
As for the right of women to work?
Get thee to a trad wife lifestyle, and begin your breeding program ...
That weekend infallible Pope seemed like a decent punctuation point, what with "Rage Corp" providing a generous sewer load of crapulence.
The pond decided it could skip the reptiles being wildly excited by its latest Newspoll, which featured at the top of the digital page ma ...
Newspoll: Wilson’s Libs on course to end 12 years of Labor rule
Victorian Opposition Leader Jess Wilson is likely to lead a majority Coalition government, according to the latest Newspoll.
It'll be what it will be ...and so the pond also skipped several other reptiles slobbering and slavering over the result ...
But the reptiles also made a big splash for simpleton Simon ...
That was a lot of general blather, and simplistic Simon continued on that way ...
This was all very well, but very contingent, and yet Simon had promised an earth-shattering prophesy. Would it come in the last gobbet?
Say what?
Such bold predictions, such an incredible prophet, such an astonishing seer, but may be the pond wasted its time, may be this is a wretched reptile pretending to be prophetic, scribbling with as much assurance as the pond deciding that this may be the time it can pick a Melbourne cup winner ...
And so to wrap up proceedings with another immortal Rowe, which may or may not be relevant to the lizard Oz's AI ...
By golly that Drysdale painting could be found in almost every Tamworth home once upon a time, with the Hill End outing having its own wiki ...
And now for an AV distraction ... with the world's humanitarians now rejoicing at the company they're forced to keep ...
