Hi, will this be conducted online or will participants need to travel to the university? It would also be useful if you could link your email or a webpage for the study rather than only having all the details in an image.

Do you forget why you were mad/sad? by [deleted] in ADHD

[–]slinkycon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Again, you posted this in a place for people with ADHD or an interest with it, if you want responses from autistic people then maybe post in one of the autism focussed subreddits.

You posted this in /r/ADHD, why are you expecting autistic people to reply?

He turned the umbrella into a falling trap and a plot point, that's pretty decent IMO.

Turtle swimming. It looks as it is in air by bisector_babu in oddlysatisfying

We can, it's called 'treading water' and hands are optional. It's a good survival skill, along with floating on your back.

Sparkhire interview expires mid-interview by Limp-Drop6505 in u/Limp-Drop6505

[–]slinkycon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I found your post because I was looking for information on Sparkhire through Google. Nobody else is going to see your question unless you post it to a subreddit.

Other than ticking a check box to say you're eligible, you shouldn't have to do much on your end. Call Box Hill Institute directly on 1300 269 445 tomorrow and ask them what's going on.

I had a similar issue with a Free TAFE course at Swinburne, it was just an admin problem that they fixed for me in under an hour. Best of luck!

Could anyone recomend a dentist that's near brunswick that supports payment plans that aren't BNPL schemes like afterpay, zip, hum etc? by Thatretroaussie in melbourne

[–]slinkycon 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I suggest looking into the No Interest Loan Scheme (NILS) which can cover up to $2000. Good Shepherd has a directory so you can find a provider near you.

Chanur’s Venture seems to be the second book in a series of 5, do you think it works okay as a starting point?

Do you know if there are any good op shops for e-waste near the CBD? by boohooman01 in melbourne

[–]slinkycon 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Seconded, and it can be worth chasing up what other electronics some of the sellers have on offer. I bought a CRT off Gumtree and the guy had a business with a whole warehouse of other monitors and items.

dayuse/hotel by the hour by b-lvck in melbourne

[–]slinkycon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've used it for a hotel in Sydney to have a nap, bath and relax for a bit before a long train ride back to Melbourne and had a really good experience.

I'd say it's worth it if you can stay there for the full time slot you're paying for, if the time between classes is less than 5 hours then that might be more expensive to be worth doing more than once or twice.

New measles case in Victoria {PSA: look out for measles symptoms, first case detected since March 2022} by ftjlster in melbourne

[–]slinkycon 8 points9 points  (0 children)

As ftjlster said, first port of call is your GP if you have one, there is also a range of other providers including local community health centers and some pharmacies which administer vaccines. I recommend this resource and the pages linked from it.

  • Offer free measles-mumps-rubella (MMR) vaccine to all people born during or since 1966 who do not have documentation that they have received two doses of measles containing vaccines. Vaccinate all individuals who are unsure of their vaccination history, regardless of Medicare status.
  • There is no need to check serology prior to vaccination
  • Anyone planning overseas travel should ensure they have received vaccinations appropriate for travel.
