I suppose I should put some stuff about me here.

Basics: I'm male, 34, bisexual and live with my female partner and two cats in the UK. In British terms, I'm a liberal (although no longer a Liberal Democrat); in American terms, I'm probably a far-left-fringe Commie. I'm currently on disability benefits due to mental illness. I trained in law and am currently working on a degree in Criminology. I'm a Luciferian Satanist (yes, that means I worship the devil; no, it's not what you think). That'll do for now. I'll keep the rest to myself.

Hobbies/Interests: Politics, obviously. Video games, wargaming (toy soldiers for grown ups). I spent a few years as a bottom-rung semi-pro wrestler (essentially, a hobby that pays expenses). If you want to know what that was like, watch The Wrestler. I go through books like packets of chips. Some of my favourite authors include Terry Pratchett, Chaz Brenchley (in urban fantasy mode), John Douglas and William Gibson. Sci-fi fan, roleplayer (mainly nWoD right now), comic book reader (really enjoying Gail Simone's Secret Six), devoted fan of Joss Whedon, collector of superhero movies.

Random Opinions:
 * Park51: the "Ground Zero Mosque" that isn't a mosque or at Ground Zero.
 * Scientology: Never trust a religion that copyrights it's holy book.
 * Hidden talent: I make the best pizza you will ever taste.
 * Guilty pleasure: Gordon Ramsay cookery shows
 * My top 5 list: Johnny Depp, Angelina Jolie, Anthony Stewert Head, Keira Knightley (before she got scary thin) and Eliza Dushku.
 * Pet hate: People who rewrite history. I'm not talking about stuff that reasonable people can disagree on like the exact sequence and details of evolution or whether Hitler actually believed in the Christianity he claimed. Those are open subjects that rational people can disagree about. I'm talking about naked lies like asserting the Nazis were gay-friendly, left-wing or socialist in any way but name.

More to come...
