Your Autistic Life: The Ruminations of an Autistic Man

    I’m reviewing this bidet attachment. Compromises all the way down. Yes, you have to compromise.

    Aficionados won’t like me, but I don’t need the expensive stuff that they peddle. By all means, enjoy what you enjoy, but don’t start peddling your stuff to me.

    For autistic folks, but I expect it would work for all neurodivergent folks. The first question you should ask yourself is whether you want to find someone to share your life with.
