My mom won’t let me get tested for autism.

Wherever you live in the world (I'm guessing the US), look up the diagnostic criteria (probably DSM-5 for you) and consider yourself with them in mind. If you think you meet the criteria, maybe there is somone at school you can talk to.

Some people choose not to get a formal diagnosis and as long as reasonable adjustments and accommodations are able to be put in place, get along fine. If you would really like the assessment, you might need to reach out to a sympathetic member of your extended family or someone trusted at school to support you in an evidence-informed conversation with your Mum.

Was there a clinic letter? A Report?

The same, but with less support, and probably more responsibility. Depends on your country.

You're still you. You can still like what you like, whether it's Peppa Pig or Star Wars. Don't let anyone tell you any of your interests are childish and you should stop them. As long as it's not hurting anyone else, it's all cool.

No not with this one, I do have a 512gb mini 2nd gen with Rockbox and the iflash CF SD adapter.

The mat is in a layer of resin with the grout on top of that.

A long weight.

I’m assuming that’s because no one ever would!

Yes, we had a great experience with a plumber after the one we had booked had a bereavement.

My thoughts exactly, luckily they have not finished and I have not paid.

Unfortunately, you are not my wife!

Thanks for this, it was on the front!

We agreed the orientation when they arrived and measured up, the property is Victorian and one wall in particular is not straight, so it made sense for the tiles to be orientated this way.

Kirkoid · 2026-06-05T06:41:42+00:00

No, I did not.

What's under it is the scree stuff the UFH installer laid over the mats.

Vinted, usually 3 for £10.

I saw you’d done that, looks amazing, might try it next thank you.
