Humanities satirical traditions: I always enjoy the CS/ML/math/statistics satire in the annual SIGBOVIK and Ig Nobels; physics has Arxiv April Fools papers (like “On the Impossibility of Supersized Machines”) & journals like Special Topics; and medicine has the BMJ Christmas issue, of course.
What are the equivalents in the humanities, like sociology or literature? (I asked a month ago on Twitter and got zero suggestions...) EDIT: as of August 2024, no equivalents have been found.
