May 4, 2025 ~ J.K. Rowling is responds to the open letters demanding that men be included as a kind of woman:
"In light of recent open letters from academia and the arts criticising the UK's Supreme Court ruling on sex-based rights, it's possibly worth remembering that nobody sane believes, or has ever believed, that humans can change sex, or that binary sex isn't a material fact. These letters do nothing but remind us of what we know only too well: that pretending to believe these things has become an elitist badge of virtue. I often wonder whether the signatories of such letters have to quieten their consciences before publicly boosting a movement intent on removing women's and girls' rights, which bullies gay people who admit openly they don't want opposite sex partners, and campaigns for the continued sterilisation of vulnerable and troubled kids. Do they feel any qualms at all while chanting the foundational lie of their religion: Trans Women are Women, Trans Men are Men?"
Yet light is beginning to shine in: "Court losses are starting to stack up. The condescension, overreach, entitlement and aggression of gender activists is eroding public support daily. Women are fighting back and winning significant victories. Sporting bodies have miraculously awoken from their slumber and remembered that males tend to be larger, stronger and faster than females. Parts of the medical establishment are questioning cutting healthy breasts off teenaged girls is really the best way to fix their mental health problems."

May 3, 2025 ~ Journalist Alex Newman provides a flawless 90-second overview of the climate agenda: "The notion that CO₂ is pollution is absolutely preposterous... The idea that [it's] going to destroy the planet or change the temperature of the Earth is totally ludicrous." "But from a totalitarian perspective, if you can convince people that CO₂ is pollution, there's no human activity that doesn't result in CO₂ emissions—including living, including dying, turning on a light switch." "Every single aspect of your life, then, if we submit to the idea that CO₂ is pollution, then comes under the regulatory control of the people who claim to be saving us from pollution."

Apr 27, 2025 ~ 'Climate scientists want to shut off the sun'
"The UK government is poised to approve £50 million in funding for controlled solar geoengineering experiments within weeks, marking a significant step in exploring sunlight reflection methods (SRM) to mitigate global warming." This is total madness akin to the insanity that was being proposed in the 1970s when they thought the next ice age was coming. Scientists proposed darkening the polar ice to absorb more heat to counteract the cooling. Thank goodness leaders back then did not listen to them and ignored their suggestions. Nowadays our leaders seem to be embracing the foolishness that scientists are proposing to cool the planet. [Anti-Science, Climate Change]
Apr 26, 2025 ~ 'Living Hell?' John Stossel releases the next round of climate change myths. Droughts and wildfires are worsening. Sea level rise will be cause catastrophic damage. Coral reefs are dying. All of these things are provably false but the #FakeNews pushes it. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News, John Stossel]
Apr 21, 2025 ~ 'Climate Myths' Stossel lists many common climate myths that have been told. The Arctic will soon be ice-free. Polar bears are going extinct. Climate change will create a massive global food shortage. All those are spectacularly false. Just the opposite. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, John Stossel]
Apr 20, 2025 ~ Another video that illustrates the incoherence of trans ideology. This girl explains why she is 'tri-gender' which means she is male, female and non-binary simultaneously.

Apr 15, 2025 ~ Christina Buttons, 'The Pseudoscience in the Case Against Trump’s Transgender Military Ban'
"The studies—focused on brain structure, twin concordance, genetics, and fetal hormone exposure—can give the illusion of a solid scientific foundation, but they are fraught with limitations. They often rely on small, non-representative samples, produce inconsistent results, fail to control for key confounding variables, and lack reliable replication. What remains is a patchwork of inconclusive findings, frequently overstated to support broad claims." [Anti-Science, Trans]
Apr 14, 2025 ~ Flashback 2009, "Former climate czar, John Kerry said, “In five years, scientists predict that we will have the first ice-free Arctic summer.” H/T Chris Martz.

Apr 13, 2025 ~ "Whistleblower Doctor: Trans Treatments ‘Are Destroying Children‘s Lives‘" Another whistleblower, Dr. Eithan Haim, comes forth to expose how alleged 'trans affirming care' is “destroying children’s lives.” “They are putting them down a road where they become a chronic medical patient that they can never come back from, especially the surgical complications. I see these things all the time.” One third become incontinent but that is the least of their problems. These barbaric procedures must stop, especially on minors too young to really consent.

Mar 30, 2025 ~ 'Scientists Misreport Climate Cause of LA Wildfires' Very important video by Sabine Hossenfelder. A new pseudoscience has spun out of the pseudoscience of climate alarmism. So called 'attribution science' attempts to attribute climate events like hurricanes and fires to climate change. Amazingly, every extreme weather event that happens today is attributed to climate change even though their frequencies and severity have not increased over long time periods.
The ruse is accomplished by claiming not that the event was definitely caused by climate change but rather that it has been made 'more likely' by some significant amount. A study from "The World Weather Attribution Center" reported that the recent LA Wildfires were made 35% more likely by climate change. ALL of the #FakeNews organizations reported this result and governments try to react to what they think will help reduce these extreme events, like trying to implement 'net zero.'
However, these 'attribution studies' are garbage as Hossenfelder @skdh found out when she dug into it. Even using the study's own data, she finds "Those results are compatible with no effect at all. They didn’t find any reliable relation between the wildfire and climate change." But even though their study had a null result, the study authors said they have “high confidence” that fossil fuel is to blame for this particular fire. Which of course is the only kind of result that would get them any attention at all.
"This particular study is below even my already low expectations. Look, you all know I am not a climate scientist, I’m just some YouTuber who reads too many papers. I stand here thinking I should really keep my mouth shut. And I guess a lot of climate scientists think the same. But what the fuck? In any decent scientific discipline this 'result' would have been reported as 'not statistically significant' end of story."
Hossenfelder released a second video on this study where she double checked this result and ran her conclusion by a climate scientist who confirmed it. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 23, 2025 ~ 'The downfall of climate change poster boy Michael Mann' Mann is a clown and fraud of epic proportions.
"The hockey stick, let us never forget, was promoted as the last nail in the coffin of climate skepticism. ‘It is hard to overestimate how influential this study has been,’ declared a BBC journalist, and on this rare occasion that BBC journalist was right. The hockey stick was cited frequently in the IPCC’s Third Assessment Report; it was used in support of the Kyoto treaty; it appeared in textbooks; it was quoted by politicians as proof that urgent action needed to be taken."
The hockey stick was junk science though. "The proxies he had used to recreate early temperatures (e.g. tree ring data) were unreliable; that his statistical methodology was flawed; that his algorithms were so corrupt that whatever data you input, you’d always get the same unscientific, politically driven hockey stick shape."
Most recently, he was found to have been lying in court. Multiple times. And so he owes a tremendous amount of money to the people he was suing for criticizing him.
"Mann’s hockey stick is still wielded to club critics, but he is revealed as a liar and his dismal legacy – from the wind turbines despoiling your horizon to the net-zero rules killing your business – lives on." [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
Mar 16, 2025 ~ 'The Tables Turn on Michael Mann' Its a really bad day for Mann. "The Superior Court has ordered him to pay National Review more than $500,000 in attorneys’ fees under the D.C. anti-SLAPP law (including some for my own time early in the case). And just this week, the court took it a step further, finding that Mann and his lawyers had acted in bad faith and knowingly presented false evidence to the jury in an exhibit exaggerating the grant money that Mann had lost as a result of the alleged defamation. The court sanctioned Mann and his lawyers for the deliberate misrepresentation to the court and to the jury. At the same time, it reduced the amount of the punitive damages award (as it well should have under constitutional due process standards), from $1 million to a mere $5,000." All this was unnecessary and could have been avoided. Couldn't have happened to a nicer fraud. [Anti-Science, Climate Change]
Mar 15, 2025 ~ 'On XY in XX’s Sports, Whoopi G. Opens Her Mouth—and Removes All Doubt' Goldberg makes a fool of herself explaining that there is no reason for sports to be segregated by sex" "So, when you come in and you say, these are men competing against women, you’re assuming that the women are weak and just can’t do anything. Have you seen female athletes?! They know what they’re doing, so I’m not sure what’s going on or why this is an issue." [Anti-Science, Trans, Trans Athletes]
Mar 7, 2025 ~ Diana Alastair posted on X about trans poster child Avery Jackson. He was on the cover of National Geographic. Biden even celebrated him: I’m sure you all remember Avery Jackson, the “trans girl” who, at 9, was on the cover of National Geographic. Avery was given the gold standard in gender affirming care: he was chemically castrated and sterilized with “blockers” to hold off male puberty. Now, at age 17, Avery has come out as “nonbinary” — but that’s not the worst part. He also identifies as asexual, meaning that he doesn’t experience sexual attraction. This is undoubtedly the result of the medication used to delay male puberty; the president of WPATH, Dr, “Marci” Bowers, has said on camera that so-called puberty blockers, which are used to chemically castrate sex offenders, chemically castrate the young boys who take them as well, leaving them incapable of arousal or orgasm. For adult sex offenders, the process is reversible. For boys like Avery, the effects are permanent. He will never feel sexual attraction, or any of the experiences that accompany it. He is completely sterile; he can never father a child, and his own childhood was spent in the national spotlight. The blockers he was given have also stunted his growth and mental development in irreversible ways. All of these things were stolen from him, and he has said that transitioning “ruined my life.” It’s high time that we stop pretending that children can make an informed decision to transition or take blockers, even if their doctors are honest about the risks and consequences — which most are not. Blockers are not reversible: the intellectual deficits they cause will never repair themselves, and neither will the damage done to the child victim’s emotional intelligence and maturity. This will, of course, make it easier to push them into transitioning; ie, to sell them hormones and provide surgical alterations. Parents like Avery’s, who try to monetize their child’s struggles with gender identity, belong in prison, not on television, and so do the doctors who are complicit in his chemical castration and sterilization.
Very sad but all this was very foreseeable for those not in the cult of modern gender ideology. [Anti-Science, Trans]
Mar 7, 2025 ~ 'Trans surgeries increase risk of mental health conditions, suicidal ideations: study' Another devastating study revealing the long term effects of trans affirming care are very harmful. "The study focused on 107,583 patients 18 and over with gender dysphoria, some who underwent surgery and others who did not."
"They determined rates of depression, anxiety, suicidal ideation and substance-use disorders were 'significantly higher' among those who underwent surgery, assessed two years later." Significantly, this is the opposite of what he have always heard from modern gender ideologues. We were told they needed the surgery for better mental health but the surgeries create worse mental health results.
And how could they not? The results are often horrific and ongoingly painful. They become essentially undatable, sterile and incapable of sexual enjoyment. [Anti-Science, Health Care, Trans]
Mar 4, 2025 ~ Bill Nye the anti-science guy goes on #FakeNews CNN to claim that hurricanes are getting more frequent and "forest fires in the Carolinas didn't use to be a thing." These are ridiculous lies even by #FakeNews standards. Not even close to being the truth. Hurricanes are not getting more frequent and the largest wildfire in the SC's history was in 1976. 5,000 wildfires occur in SC in a typical year. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]

Cause of death was "pulmonary embolism." "“There is strong evidence that estrogen therapy for trans women increases their risk for venous thromboembolism over 5 fold.” It is clinical malpractice to pump the wrong hormones (or puberty blockers) into a healthy body.

Feb 26, 2025 ~ 'Maine legislature censures Rep. Laurel Libby for pointing out trans athlete who won girls' competition' Incredible. Maine has silenced Libby for speaking out about biological males still competing (and winning) in girls sports in Maine. ""I was completely unable, from my first sentence, to get a word out, before the other side was shutting me down." Her speaking and voting rights will not be re-instated until she apologizes but she has no intention of doing so. Despite Trump's EO banning males in female sports, Democrats are determined to destroy women's sports anyway. And they allow no dissent about it. Attorney General Bondi is planning legal action.

Feb 25, 2025 ~ Benjamin Ryan, "Speaking about pediatric gender medicine with @BillMaher on @PodSaveAmerica, @JonLovett claims that “study after study shows that gender-affirming care saves lives.” This is false. There is no such study. Only one study has ever assessed the direct association between using cross-sex hormones to treat gender dysphoria in youth and an independent, statistically significant difference in the suicide death rate. The study, conducted in Finland and published a year ago, found no such association." [Anti-Science, Trans]
Feb 23, 2025 ~ 'How Al Gore Silenced Bill Gray' "Few names in the field of hurricane forecasting command as much respect as Dr. William 'Bill' Gray. A pioneer in tropical meteorology, Gray led the field in hurricane research for decades. His work at Colorado State University laid the foundation for modern hurricane forecasting, saving countless lives with accurate seasonal predictions. Yet, despite his contributions to science, Gray became a target of Al Gore’s climate crusade. His crime? Daring to question the mainstream climate narrative that Gore and the climate-industrial complex have worked so hard to manufacture."
"Gray himself noted in a 2006 Denver Post interview that the climate change hysteria was based on politics, not science. He warned that grant-driven research was steering the field away from honest inquiry and toward predetermined conclusions designed to support policy goals rather than scientific truth."
"According to Gray, he was bluntly told by colleagues that his skepticism had made him a liability. Without funding, his ability to continue his research and train new generations of hurricane forecasters was severely hampered. This wasn’t just about punishing Gray; it was a warning shot to the entire atmospheric science community: Dissent from the climate dogma, and your career will be over."
"I know this firsthand because I experienced a very similar reality. As my thoughts on climate have evolved, I found myself increasingly at odds with the rigid orthodoxy surrounding climate science. The moment I began questioning the prevailing narrative, I saw the same pattern unfold, colleagues distancing themselves, funding opportunities evaporating, and an unspoken message that challenging climate alarmism was a career-ending move. Bill Gray’s story was not an anomaly; it was a blueprint for enforcing conformity in climate science, and I, like many others, learned that lesson the hard way."
"The message was clear: If one of the most respected names in meteorology could be sidelined for questioning climate orthodoxy, what hope did younger scientists, like myself, have?" [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Silencing]
Feb 8, 2025 ~ 'Trump Just Dealt A Massive Death Blow To Gender Ideology' Trump passes the 'PROTECTING CHILDREN FROM CHEMICAL AND SURGICAL MUTILATION' Executive Order.
"Across the country today, medical professionals are maiming and sterilizing a growing number of impressionable children under the radical and false claim that adults can change a child’s sex through a series of irreversible medical interventions. This dangerous trend will be a stain on our Nation’s history, and it must end."
"Countless children soon regret that they have been mutilated and begin to grasp the horrifying tragedy that they will never be able to conceive children of their own or nurture their children through breastfeeding. Moreover, these vulnerable youths’ medical bills may rise throughout their lifetimes, as they are often trapped with lifelong medical complications, a losing war with their own bodies, and, tragically, sterilization."
"Accordingly, it is the policy of the United States that it will not fund, sponsor, promote, assist, or support the so-called 'transition' of a child from one sex to another, and it will rigorously enforce all laws that prohibit or limit these destructive and life-altering procedures."
Trump's EO will save countless children from making tragic, costly and irreversible mistakes in their youth. [Anti-Science, Trans, Trump Win]

@jk_rowling replies “Again and again I’ve come up against men who argue exactly what Oliver does here, using the very same talking points,” the British author continued. “With a straight face, the ‘believe the science’ guys will say ‘actually, we don’t yet have enough data to say whether men and boys are stronger and faster than women and girls’. The ‘be kind’ crew can’t see what the issue is. ‘Why are you bothered, it only affects a tiny minority of females?' If you want to tell the world you’re happy to watch females suffer injury, humiliation and the loss of sporting opportunities to bolster an elitist post-modern ideology embraced by a minute fraction of the world’s population, fair enough; you’re allowed your opinion. But if you’ve just told girls they don’t deserve fair sport, maybe rethink using all too real and common sexual predation against young women as a punchline for your ‘edgy’ closing joke.” [Anti-Science, Fake News, Loathsome Left, Trans, Trans Athletes]

I think there have been about 27 hurricanes that have had lower barometric pressure on landfall than Milton did, and of those, 17 occurred I think prior to 1960.”
“The most powerful hurricane on record since the 1850s in the state of Florida occurred in the 1930s, the Labor Day Hurricane, barometric pressure on that was 892 millibars. It totally wiped out the Keys. We’ve never seen anything like it, and that remains head and shoulders above any powerful hurricane that we’ve ever had in the state of Florida.”
He noted that the deadliest hurricane the state has ever faced was the Okeechobee hurricane in 1928, which killed more than 4,000 people. [Anti-Science, Climate Change, Fake News]
