User:Ppe42

I'm Ppe42, and this is my user page. I live in Wellington, New Zealand near the Wellington Botanic Gardens - the picture on the article is the view from my bedroom. I am a psychology Masters student and libertarian (spot me on the list).

Beliefs/Attitudes:

• Atheist (no evidence for God(ess)(s/es), therefore its foolish to postulate one)
• Skeptic (anti-pseudoscience)
• Extropian (pro-technology)
• Transhumanist
• Scientific (pro-science)
• Inclusionist (Wikipedia should include all human knowledge)
• Libertarian (pro-freedom, anti-coercion)
• Monogamist ("if you try to play it fast and loose, you just get confused")
• Speciesist (intelligence is special, so humans are more important than animals)
• Cultural Universalist (some cultures have certain values and beliefs which are superior to others)
• High SDO, average RWA.

Hobbies:

• Woodworking
• Cooking
• Fixing Things
• Spending time with my SO
• Overanalysing almost everything (a common malady of psychologists, I believe).

You can leave a message on my Talk Page, or visit my (shared) blog Pacific Empire.

Lovely Leanne let me place this picture on the Wellington Botanic Garden article, improving it immensely.

This is another of Leanne's pictures of the Wellington Botanic Garden.

A neat fungus that I photographed, then realised there was no Wikipedia article on it, so I then wrote the article myself.
