Nope. It's very common, but not universal.

This is almost certainly too much information, but I can personally confirm that autism does not require circumcision.

🚨NEW EP🚨

It's the sweater Sylvester McCoy wore on Doctor Who.

I'll be live on @bqnpodcasts.bsky.social's The Viewscreen this Sunday at 12PM Eastern!

I still have several window units to remove and stow. I had to do the office one now because the room gets stuffy, and I wanted to switch to a window fan.
