What’s the difference between an Aga stove and a climate changed denialist?

One is an oil-fired cooker and one is brand of stove.

The inside or the outside?

Shitposting? Praxis.

Sorry I was too hyped up to alt text properly. The Aurora Australis was not only bright enough to see clearly, but was flashing and flailing about like lightning! I have never seen anything like it.

Aurora going OFF!

!!!!

“Oil isn’t actually made from dinosaurs” = “Nobody talks to me at parties.”

Graph of annual average of daily maximum temperature and climate stripes for Hobart. The graph shows a gradual decline from 1888 until around 1950, after which there is a direct upward trend, which becomes steeper after 2000. It is now around 1.5 degrees C above the pre-1960 average.

Here’s Hobart, Tasmania.

Careful! They’ll claim someone was weaponising those shopping trolleys and shopping baskets.

“ I have to tell you now that no such undertaking has
been received, and that consequently this country is a feud’n with Germany.”

A graph showing gradually decreasing temperature from 1888, sharply increasing after 1960. Below the graph are coloured “climate stripes” showing the change from blue and white (at or below average ) to red (above average) with all red since 2006.

Hobart, Tasmania has daily temperature records from 1888. Here is the updated plot of annual mean maximum temperature. Notice anything?

No way! Has anyone thought of plotting the curves of supply and demand, maybe as price vs quantity? Wait until economists hear about this!

That garden supplies club is getting out of hand.

Sydney to Hobart time. The annual Oz tradition where people who’ll sit through days of cricket & tennis complain about an event that takes up about 1 hr on Boxing Day and a few 2 min spots at the end of the news for a few days, & search out Facebook articles to comment that they don’t care about it.

And why no alarm bells rang when father and son went to a month-long paramilitary training camp (if the stories are to be believed - so many dodgy stories around at the moment).

Denialist works for all of them.

With a side order of E4?

Is that A1 on the tea towel?

That stadium’s not going to pay for itself, you know . No, wait I mean it will absolutely pay for itself in no time. (Phew that was close. I think I got away with it.

I’m not defending anyone over this debacle, but that makes about as much sense as saying you helped develop powered flight. They are very distant relatives. Not to mention the fact that Peter and Una Rockliff sold Petuna in 2020.

In their defence, the bridge was there first. The designers didn’t meet the design criteria for manoeuvrability under the bridge. Not Tas gov’t fault (in that particular case). On the other hand, sacrificing local, sustainable cray fisheries for foreign-owned factory fish farms is extremely dodgy.

Continuing the proud tradition of hosting COP in fossil fuel-owned states.

Is she going back for one of Bruce’s hats?

I believe Northern Ireland is still part of the UK. Either way, not my problem since I live in Australia.

Also, Scotland and Ireland probably want a word.

What have the Normans ever done for us?

For when shouting “CO ₂ IS PLANT FOOD!” Is not enough.

Has Trump nuked Norway and Venezuela yet, to show how peaceful he is?

Boris is tired of your shit.

We still do. Ships were sent to Fiji (cyclone) Tonga (volcano and tsunami). They just have habit of breaking down on the way there or back occasionally.
