I have a personal web page, but there's not much to show yet. I'll add a link when I have more content.
I enjoy programming, chatting, and criticising biomedical psychiatry. Well, honestly I don't enjoy the last one, but I feel I must bear witness after I was experimented upon (with my parent's consent) in what I personally believe was junk science. I am not a Scientologist. I used to think they were a valid religion, and so, as an atheist myself, I'd take a live-and-let-live approach to their beliefs. However, as I have become more active in learning about criticisms of psychiatry, I have also learned some of the horrible actions which occur inside the Scientologist cult (and I do believe they are a cult, not a valid religion). I think it is very sad that many people who have been abused in some way by biomedical psychiatry end up being abused a second time by a group of people who appear sympathetic but actually have a very unhealthy social dynamic. I think that bringing criticisms of biomedical psychiatry to the mainstream will not only have a beneficial effect on the quality of science which is done but also will save people from turning to the Cult of Scientology as the only people who will listen.
Anyways, that's my bio and little rant. :)
