About

I'm Mike Bradshaw (he/him). I welcome off site requests for help if I can be of assistance with moderation of Ask Different on Stack Exchange.

Note, If you are emailing for help answering your question as opposed to help with moderation of the site, post in the main chat room and @ me please a link to the item - I'm no longer on the twitters as @bmike since space Karen has taken over that particular circus. Too soon to tell if I go back or another site takes its place for art & other malarkey.
