About Troythulu

I seek to learn through this site and others how to better my ability as a person and my skill at using my reason and understanding to best effect. I do fractal artwork as a hobby, and I'm working to develop it to professional levels, though I've a bit to go till I reach that degree of skill! This is a crazy world we're in, but maybe I can do a little, if only that, to make it a bit more sane than it otherwise would be.

  1. I was just talking the other day to a lady who works with people with mental illnesses and helps them gaining employment. She was saying how hard it was when many schizophrenic people end up with a record for resisting arrest when police and transit guards don’t understand the nature of their illness. So sad, and such an obvious discrimination and yet people ignore it!

  2. Sorry, I meant people living with schizophrenia. :)

Comments are golden, but I'll not tolerate attempts to defecate on this blog's online rug -- I have cats for that, thank you.
