2025 RationalWiki 'Oregon Plan' Fundraiser

There is no RationalWiki without you. We are a small non-profit with no staff—we are hundreds of volunteers who document pseudoscience and crankery around the world every day. We will never allow ads because we must remain independent. We cannot rely on big donors with corresponding big agendas. We are not the largest website around, but we believe we play an important role in defending truth and objectivity.

Fighting pseudoscience isn't free.
We are 100% user-supported! Help and donate $5, $10, $20 or whatever you can today with PayPal Logo.png!
Donations so far: $2973.89Goal: $10000
Information icon.svg At the chicken coop, we are currently voting on a change to the blocking policy to clarify when offsite behavior such as harassment and brigading can get someone banned from RW. A reminder that you need at least 75 edits and to have had an account for at least 3 months to vote.

If you're here it means you want to know stuff about me. Or are really bored. Or both.

I'm British, socialist, working class and just old enough for a mid-life crisis. Would prefer they/name, but don't really mind as long as it's not 'kid' or 'oi you!'. Believes I am not an identity, I am a person. Okay, mainly - the above bits I feel *are* important, at very least understanding where I'm coming from in general terms when here. Hates the term 'allyship', since when acting like a decent human being needed a special word? Or being proud of things about me I have no control over. Might as well be 'proud' of being left-handed. Yay, I need special scissors and find it difficult to use engine starter cords!

Other interests include fitness, roleplaying, reading and putting stuff on my blog when I remember. Which is here: https://talesfromtheminority.wordpress.com/

I have also annoyed the brave warrior Conservative enough to get (apparently) one two three of their glorious essays on me, which I am sure shall be highly insightful and filled with pathos if I run out of other things which need doing and get round to read the thing.

As a RW Mod, it's kind of within my remit to help other users making/improving articles. I may lack the 'personal bandwidth' and/or knowledge base to actually be of use on details, but I shall try my best - just leave a request on my talk page.
