Critical free thinking ENTP. I believe none of what I read and 27.185% of what I see. Proud future Troglodyte.

I intentionally filter my karma. It is not visible to me.

Agenda: Snap the think tank out of repeat narratives and dogmas. Pour the KoolAid(c) down the drain.

I am not a doctor. I am not a lawyer. I am not a particle physicist. I am not a psychiatrist.

Any advice given is merely my personal opinion based on my own experiences and anecdotal observations and/or personal research out of interest and/or life mistakes. I will not provide references for everything I say. This is not a thesis. People can look things up and reach their own conclusions if they care enough. I do not provide nor do I trust [citations] as they are often tainted by incentives and peer reviewed by pencil whippers and worse.
