I'm not liberal, NDP, bloc, conservative or others. I'm just me, attempting to be a decent human.

Don't push your narrative on my lawn. I got no time for that bullshit. #nopolitics #noreligion #free #criticalthinker

I cannot believe that I have not seen this scientific study before now. I have gone my whole life believing that parachutes save lives, but this controversial research has overturned consensus on this. I am now convinced that parachutes are a waste of money. To show my support for this idea, I will be jumping out of a plane without a parachute to show that it is perfectly safe!

If #transgender is the "enemy of christianity" then every #atheist & #scientist & #criticalthinker is officially trans? And I'm not being facetious. It's like how the alt-right uses #woke or #feminist or #progressive as a pejorative for anyone who refuses to believe in bigoted bullshit without question.

#Introduction
I am a #composer/ #musician and write various kinds of music. I would love it to have a greater impact but, for now, I do it because I enjoy it and others can as well.

I am a #skeptic, #humanist, #freethinker, #criticalthinker, lover of #science, read #ScientificAmerican (just because), and believe that people make the best decisions based on the information available. And . . . the better person can change their mind when presented with compelling contradictory information.
