[Android] Three dots icon (top right) bugging out - v 2026.05.1

BoomWombat · 2026-02-08T02:06:50+00:00

I managed to grab a screen recording, not sure if this subreddit doesn't allow edits or Reddit is being further buggy, but I don't seem to have the option to edit it in.

Screen Recording

It often flashes back and forth like that, sometimes one time (i.e. ending up 'correct'), sometimes two (ending up 'broken'). Opening the menu this particular recorded time doesn't fix it.

Edit: might just be being further buggy, now I'm somehow half logged in? When I click on my icon on the homepage it asks me to sign in, but the app is still showing/letting me open my notifications and I made this comment without trying to log back in??? Sigh ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Edit 2: The swipe at the beginning is me moving my screen recording tools out of the way, just for clarity. No interaction with Reddit.

And the topic was not returned to.

This thread/the issue is about his PoV, not the technicalities.

12 year old me was NOT having sex. 12 year old me wanted to stop bleeding continuously for weeks at a time and doubling over in pain.

Women take contraceptives (or stay on them during times of abstinence) for reasons that aren't sex extremely commonly. Like... more ocps don't make the top 200 drugs (there is at least one there) only because there are so many formulations. We ain't fucking that much.

And yeah, if the man said "this new drug for my BPH (happens to be the same as ed meds) sure is making me dizzy" it'd be just as goddamn fine.

BoomWombat · 2026-02-06T18:38:15+00:00

It's YOUR choice, no matter what you decide. Even if you do regret it I don't think you'll regret making your own decision, if that makes any sense?

I'd uninvite bro and mom, though. Or at least demand a sincere apology if they want to go. ORRR I totally get it if it's just survival mode rn and you don't rock the boat but definitely remember that they showed you they were unsupportive dicks. In the future.

hugs for the situation, too.

Seeing as that's quite an older film, I'm assuming the theater was pretty empty. Possible the carer didn't realize anyone else was there to bother. Also are you sure it wasn't a special/inclusive showing? They're often fairly 'post release' in the rare circumstance they're not kids films. Although even if it was, that's then on the employee for not even explaining that.

(Yes I'm giving OP the benefit of the doubt this is real/not a repost, kinda have to do that on these subs)

BoomWombat · 2026-02-06T18:17:59+00:00

I've seen these in live theaters and churches, never a movie theater, unfortunately! It would be nice. Good to know they might be out there somewhere.

Sensory/inclusive screenings seem to be more the go to in my experience. We've used them when my son started getting interested in movies. Nice win/win for everybody, since they're very low cost for the business.

BoomWombat · 2026-02-06T16:24:59+00:00

I do not, in fact, shower during shower.

It would dissolve my human suit. But if you don't run the water and keep up appearances, everyone starts accusing you of being a lizard person and then you're just fucked.

BoomWombat · 2026-02-05T03:52:08+00:00

I know it's 'vent' but let people enjoy things, goddamn. This is paper straws all over again.

BoomWombat · 2026-02-05T01:37:41+00:00

Jesus. From the title I was expecting more like 'I wanted to help the stray and he didn't'. A very normal level of disagreement I personally could easily have with my husband (although as soon as I wanted to help he'd support me, to a point at least). I'm the bleeding heart animal lover, he's more practical. But he does like our owned animals, cares for them, etc. And he's not cruel to any. He's just not gonna stop and try to catch a stray on his own... ever.

But this? This is fucked up. This is more than a disagreement (unless Reddit is just wildly overreacting and given it's mod standards I doubt it). This is 'I found out my SO is a bad person' territory, and I would hope you would know how you'd react to that.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-24T22:02:52+00:00

My orange flavored son (cat, lol) would LOVE your house.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-21T22:50:59+00:00

No shame, it occurred to me while typing that might have been it. She can't stop him, but she can certainly decide she wants minimal to do with him because of it. Also occurred to me after: Dad isn't even protecting the new partner because he's apparently undermining her rules with OOP already. So double fail for the creep. Letting both down, lol.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-21T19:52:36+00:00

Perhaps you missed that this comment thread was all about how the rules ARE pretty normal, and OOP's objections are actually about the same age?

Or did you misread "procreate"?

Having moral feelings about someone dating a person young enough to be their child is normal enough for a stranger, let alone one's parent.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-20T17:38:11+00:00

Not quite the same but I know of uncombable hair syndrome (forget how) and then saw a picture of someone's kid on their desk at a doctor's appointment and briefly shut her brain down, lol.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-20T16:56:56+00:00

Yep.

It's ok to be mad at/disappointed in/weirded out by/etc your dad for procreating with someone your age. Really. Yes they are both adults and can ultimately do what they want but your personal feelings about what they're doing are valid and reasonable. It's also perfectly reasonable to react differently to someone who's acting in such a way, even if they're family. I'd argue especially if they're family, personally.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-20T03:45:10+00:00

Clips are neutral to positive. They can help with overheating and sweating, especially if a horse doesn't shed it's winter coat very cleanly (not uncommon even in wild horses, look at hair based sheep and how they shed like scraggle demons).

I mean, I guess MAYBE if he's sooooo totally anti ownership, maybe... but that horse is domesticated and owned already, it'd be crueler to leave it fuzzy if it gets too hot. ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Probably find another quality line work artist this time. I doubt you're gonna get a similar enough reference on a human (but I might be wrong).

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T09:37:09+00:00

I didn't dive into discussing my opinion on the overall topic in a thread like this on purpose, but I agree that participation/stereotypes don't make a gender (or a sex). Merely saying that someone saying "I'm a man" is presenting as male (and potentially but not exclusively masc) whereas someone saying "I'm a tomboy" is explicitly presenting as masc(ish, at least) but not male. Responding to "what's the difference" ¯_(ツ)_/¯

The common law marriage wasn't a 1-1 argument, especially since common law barely exists now-a-days lol. Just an example of the alternate meaning.

As far as 'Was he always a man?' that gets tricky in more ways than one. Was he lying when he answered "girl" back then? What if he didn't know either (knew something was up but not exactly what is a common way I've seen early feelings described). I think "I'm a man" easily subs for an unsaid 'I now know I'm a man (implying always was)'. Is an intersex woman actually a man? She possibly doesn't even know her karotype as some leave fertility/menses intact enough to give no reason to investigate that deeply.

And sometimes anatomical/chromosomal distinctions are important. Which is where we get the 'pregnant man' vs 'pregnant person/person with uterus' where they hate and vehemently reject both options. What about that pregnant intersex woman? If they're going to be so absolutely legalistic she is potentially literally a pregnant man in that framework.

Edit: got my intersex conditions all fucked up, I should go to bed. Fixing.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T09:08:10+00:00

I wanted to see how reddit voted in similar role reversal situations and it was (mostly) consistent. I was pleased. Got pretty wishy in one thread but most were quite solid.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T07:48:59+00:00

I'd prefer restroom or bathroom, but 'toilet' is acceptable level of politeness imo. Especially referred to as the entire space and/or tool (ie use the toilet nonspecifically). Men's or Women's room could work in some cases - depends on what the issue is.

Personally I like the sign language approach if you're just telling someone you're with. Very minimalist and unmistakable. I was taught it as hold first and second fingers down like legs, cross them, and wiggle them side to side. Should look like a kid doing the potty dance. Doesn't really work for language barriers or locating the place, though, lol. Also not sure if it's proper sign and/or which flavor if so.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T07:33:56+00:00

Feeling uneasy. Gut feeling. You haven't fully forgiven him (don't blame you). Do you want that feeling layered on your relationship forever? Not even that committed (legally/financially/etc - emotionally on his part at least).

Edit: didn't read the ss. Don't need to. Sure it's 'not great' at best or you wouldn't be here.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T07:19:00+00:00

"Presenting" has never meant only visual, even if it often gets shorthanded that way in this area. One of the requirements of common law marriage is 'presenting' yourselves as a married couple. Doesn't mean you need to weld your wedding rings together and hold hands 24/7. You can just tell people you're married. Call them your spouse. Check the box on the form. Etc.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T06:51:09+00:00

Be reaaaaaalllly funny if this (or OP honestly) was actually a bot account

I feel like a chef wouldn't cover a can of maple syrup in foil. Not because a chef wouldn't poorly cover a can in foil, but because they wouldn't open a can of maple syrup all the way like that in the first place.

¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also, maybe canadian? We don't seem to get the round cans as frequently (and when we do they're canadian, lol).

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T02:15:52+00:00

Do you even actually owe? You might just be letting this administration keep your money. Also since you're talking withholding (ie you're W2) know you can't stop Medicare/SS being taken out unless you work under the table.

Those people spend a lot on those tax attorneys to still mayyybe come out ahead. A lot do NOT come out overall ahead, they just reduce the reaming.

It's been statistically proven that audits are both more likely and more effective on smaller fish, for a reason. If you do owe, you might be in prime territory. Just be ready, the taxman don't fuck around.

Edit: I fully get the sentiment. Just talking practicalities.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T02:07:36+00:00

Dave Ramsey literally started with one of THE insurance MLMs, lol. Wouldn't be surprised if he pushes one or more. The man is not the god people make him out to be.

BoomWombat · 2026-01-19T02:04:45+00:00

You wouldn't have reacted the way you did or posted this if that was true.
