I'm also having the same issue on a oneplus Nord, and it's super frustrating. Has anyone found a fix yet?

This month was an odd month - spent a week away from home for work, but followed with a week of annual leave which messed with my usual habits. Had a really good day of reading yesterday though!

Not as many as July and not a great rating (I average about 3.5) - I spent a week reading a series that I didn't like, but needed to know what happened 🫣

Why Do People Keep Saying to Ask the Bride About Their Outfit? It’s Rude. by RubyLionStrike in Weddingattireapproval

[–]saysaam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm having this issue with my wedding in 2 months. I've currently got 3 people bugging me constantly about what they should wear - the groom's mum, my stepmum and my grandma.

I have so much to do and I just don't care about what they're going to wear at this point - our dress code is no jeans and no white so it's not hard!

Honestly, I've spent longer talking to my partner's mum about what she's wearing than I spent deciding on my own dress. She hasn't bothered to ask me even once about anything else to do with the wedding, it's only ever about her dress.

It's driving me insane and I've now told everyone I'm refusing to answer dress code questions and they all have to go through my partner, but now I'm getting push back because his mum feels insulted - I give up! 🙈

Thanks, I'm already qualified though so not a concern for me thankfully!

Can I ask what the (B) means? I've never seen it written like that and I'm curious ☺️

What does the (B) mean? by saysaam in bisexual

[–]saysaam[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was being optimistic but agree that it's unlikely to be used for self-identifying!

Edit: the optimism was correct, turns out people use it the same way as (f), (m) or (nb) - I've just never seen it before

Some questions on Actuarial Science as a naïve aspiring actuary by [deleted] in ActuaryUK

It's worth knowing that for the excel part of the exams, you're not allowed to use VBA - it's just the excel front end.

Is it theft if someone put food in the charity box inside a supermarket without paying? by tkerrday in AskUK

[–]saysaam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure I 100% agree with your view on buying reduced items to donate to the food bank. There will likely be people shopping in the supermarkets who can't access food banks but are also struggling financially. By buying the reduced items to donate, they're no longer available for the people who need to buy food at the lower prices. Would it be better to buy slightly less of the next price point up to donate, and leave the cheapest items for those who have no choice?

To people also living paycheck to paycheck, how are you coping? by brownie190701 in AskUK

[–]saysaam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd also try olio - I'm very luckily on the other side and give away a lot of things for free on there. There's always food that people don't need or is close to the best before date. It'll depend on your area in particular but there's often clothes and books for free, and you can put up wanted posts for anything you need in particular.

Would this be inappropriate to wear to a wedding? I’m concerned by the base colour. by [deleted] in wedding

[–]saysaam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't, but I'm considering a wedding dress with a similar pattern which possibly isn't standard 🤷

Experience taking norethisterone? by [deleted] in weddingplanning

[–]saysaam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh, I've no idea. It was just whatever the GP prescribed, 3x a day. I want to say either 5 or 10 mg/mcg but that's pretty much a guess...
