I am Abz. Currently in India for a few months but planning to leave for Canada next year. I recently discovered the joy of meeting people around the world and would like to continue that experience here.

No Wokescolds, Radical Feminists, Cultural Marxists and Social Justice Warriors.

Post-Wokesters are totally welcome to contact me; if you engage in Anti-CisHet Misandry, buzz off.

I wouldn't mind learning a few words and phrases in Spanish, German and French. I have always wanted to be an English teacher but on Interpals I am interested in cultural, not lingual edification.

I love film, art, literature, political theory, biology, astronomy, history, anthropology, astrobiology, the occult, biographies, gaming, weird fiction, media theory and true crime.

But thus I counsel you, my friends:
Mistrust all in whom the impulse to punish is powerful. They
are people of a low sort and stock; the hangmen and the bloodhound
look out of their faces. Mistrust all who talk much of their
justice! Verily, their souls lack more than honey. And when they call themselves the good and the just, do not forget that they would be pharisees, if only they had -- power.
                                                                   - Friedrich Nietzsche

I and the public know. What all schoolchildren learn,
Those to whom evil is done. Do evil in return.
                                                                               - W.H. Auden

The United States has become a place where entertainers and professional athletes are mistaken for people of importance.
                                                                          - Robert Heinlein

The best lack all conviction, while the worst / Are full of passionate intensity.
                                                                             -W.B. Yeats

I study myself more than any other subject. That is my metaphysics, that is my physics.
                                                                - Michel de Montaigne

The mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation, and go to the grave with the song still in them.
                                                                - Henry David Thoreau

Don't be a lawyer for your side;
Be a scientist for the truth.

                                                                   - Michael Shermer
