What do I want? I'm not sure anymore. But I do know what I do NOT want! I DO NOT WANT your unwanted kittens or puppies. I am not running an animal rescue. Take them to the pound yourself. I DO NOT WANT your broken-down lawn mower. I don't have room to store it and I don't have money...

Building a broad-based society for the good of autistic people is never easy, especially for a never-ending issue like autism. Especially so in Singapore, where much more can be done for the good of all Aspie and Autie individuals. As the most effective governments in the world work for the...

The Internet broke down last week. Thereafter, I decided to read over 15 books on economics and society. After reading them, I just realized I hadn't achieved comparative advantage in what I am doing. I have to quit all the groups I dislike. Unlike the very supportive and open-minded AC, where...

Over the course of history, people have used fancy ideologies and control the masses and gain power - and they prosecute them afterwards. It can be seen in past history, especially with regards to countries who chose Communism and its classless society, but failed. The elites still...
I am getting an accounting degree, I foresee myself to work as an accountant, and I may be forced to do a full-time job in that area, but I really dislike it. Others see me as a success. I call it a failure, because look, I got to confess, being an unemployed bus fan collecting bus information...

The Member of Parliament (working in a similar function to a Representative and/or a Senator in the United States) representing my electoral district, termed a constituency in my home country, is simply useless. He has a negative track record of working for the good of the disadvantaged...

No, that's not really long, since some people will out do me. Even if it's the admin :P But in that year, is there anything I learned, while mixing in with my fellow aspies, which I officially couldn't count as my peers as such, since when I first joined I didn't have my diagnosis yet. So...

My mother is always unhappy with me going out in the same boyish outfit every day ? T-shirt, fitted hat, long shorts and overly-colorful sneakers. She says if I wear like this every day, I?ll never find a girlfriend. I just said, ?okay?? I know better, though. I?d rather spend a ton on...
