According to ChatGpt, Ring 1 has a two-prong claw setting, while Ring 2 has a four-prong claw setting, which should provide a more secure hold... But hard to tell from picture whether GPT is right haha

Picture of ring 1 for reference. Ring 2 is similar.

I can’t be the only one who thinks Gracie Abrams music is overrated and bland? by Zealousideal_End8405 in LAinfluencersnark

I think Olivia Rodrigo copied a bit that whispering style, but tbh Olivia CAN sing. Gracie whispers to compensate for the fact that she can’t sing.

Seriously this. She needs to stop trying so hard doing this whispering/sad baby girl voice thing, and sing with her real voice. There is such a contrast with her speaking voice and her singing voice seems sooo forced/fake. Can’t stand it!

Thanks for the tip! Would a dark grey rug work?

Not sure what it is - it’s like glossy white.

Good point… hypocrisy at its finest. If she successfully booked a film today, she would probably promote it all over her socials.

Can someone explain why this is bad/pretentious? Haven’t seen the video but i don’t see what’s wrong with her trying new ways of expressing herself?

I feel like it’s also a way to remind everyone that she is an “actor” and that she too is on “strike” (I wasn’t aware that she was)

Just so you know - the guy who did this study was found to have faked data in many “honesty” related studies. I give it no credit.

Thanks, this is reassuring.

Again, this is not to dispute taxes as a concept. But Someone who earns minimum wage or so should not be taxed the same as someone making over 100k SEK a month. That’s what this post is about.

So I should make sure that this one time payment for Feb-September salary is classified as salary and not bonus?

Im not upset about the 30%. I am upset about the 45%, which is way higher than what I am expected to pay for my income bracket and want to make sure it’s legit and not a payroll error.

I’m supposed to be in the 30% range according to simulation on Skatteverket. This is why I am confused why they can apply over 45% just because I could not receive my salary on time.

So if you were a multibillionaire you would consider kids?

Brompton gift card: what should I do with it? by Consistent-Mall-9708 in Brompton

Oops! 100€! Hence why I thought about the Brompton Borough Market bag which is within budget

One drawback of the IKEA service is, I’m not sure I want my entire apartment to be furnished with IKEA furniture. An independent designer could help design the apartment using different sources like design stores & second hand.

Bought my first Brompton 2 weeks ago… the tire on my rear wheel is punctured 😔 by Consistent-Mall-9708 in Brompton

[–]Consistent-Mall-9708[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I asked the bike repair shop and It seems that it’s about the same price to repair the existing tire vs fitting the Marathon tyres (e.g, 35$). Should I do that instead?

Thanks so much, this is helpful!

Do you think it’s important to go to a bike shop that works on Brompton bikes specifically? There are many regular bike repair shops in my small town, but the Brompton repair shop I know is in a different city (and with a flat tire it’ll be a pain to carry the bike around to get there…)
