ABOUT ME

We are Sid and Skitzy. Sid is an 18 year old man who spends most of him time drawing, writing, or spending time with friends... Skitzy is a 19 year old woman who spends most of her time doing the same. Both are aspiring artists and writers, who enjoy travelling when it is feasible. Most people tell us we're pretty likeable, easy-to-get-along-with people. We are very good friends and we virtually never separate.

PHILOSOPHY

(Sid): As far as "socio-political" ideology goes, I'm mainly a libertarian in many ways, but also very conservative in others. I've always more or less believed in the motto "Do unto others as they do unto you" --- which is to say, I treat anybody as good as they treat me... you respect me, I'll respect you. Religiously, I mostly consider myself an eclectic agnostic, and I'm very interested in all religions and draw what valuable elements and inspirations I can from virtually all religions. Paganism (all varieties), Gnosticism, Odinism, Discordianism, Church of the SubGenius, Chaos magic, Hinduism, esoteric Christinanity, and Thelema, among others, are interests of mine in that area that I've researched fairly extensively.
