Simon Christopher Jessey (born 6 March1971) is a British former video editor, web designer and college instructor, currently living in Sadsburyville, Pennsylvania. This is his Wikipedia user page.
I was born in Rochford, Essex and spent most of my childhood in Ashtead, Surrey. Between 1988 and 2001, I worked as a videotape editor for a Wandsworth-based corporate video production company. Following an internet romance, I met and married an American web developer. I have been a part-time college instructor, web designer and something of a web standards evangelist. I volunteer my time at my local municipality, working in land-use planning and zoning.
Politics and religion
I am socially progressive, but fiscally somewhat conservative. From the liberal perspective I am pro-choice, a secularist, and I believe strongly in free speech; however, I advocate minimizing the tax burden and reducing state intervention. Although I am generally in favor of small government, I believe there are some social support structures that are absolutely necessary and must not be compromised for the sake of low taxes. I would like to see a universal healthcare system in America, funded by taxation. Most people would categorize me as an atheist because I regard the concept of a god or gods to be ridiculous. I think that religion (particularly "organized" religion) does more harm than good, and should be actively discouraged.
On Wikipedia and Bias
Yes, I am biased. I have an opinion on a great many things, even stuff I don't know much about. Mostly, I express my opinion on Bluesky. Often, I let my biases spill forth on the odd article talk page. But when I'm editing Wikipedia articles, I stick rigidly to the policies and guidelines of the project.
On the day of my birth, Mungo Jerry's Baby Jump was the UK's number one single, but it had nothing to do with babies. Number one in the US was One Bad Apple by The Osmonds, but it had nothing to do with apples. 🤔
