TransactionTooLargeException when opening pick image intent (Kotlin, Android)

I'm currently working on my app, and I have a fragment where the user can pick an image to insert into a database. This works, but when I go on my edit fragment and try to use the same code again to pick an image, I get an TransactionTooLargeException.

Error

What I've tried

I saw some solutions saying to put something like this into my code that triggers with the image intent, but I still get the same error. I might be doing something wrong, but I'm not sure.

override fun onSaveInstanceState(outState: Bundle) {
        super.onSaveInstanceState(outState)
        outState.clear()
    }

Code

Here is my OnCreateView where I set the setOnClickListener:

override fun onCreateView(
        inflater: LayoutInflater, container: ViewGroup?,
        savedInstanceState: Bundle?
    ): View? {
        // Inflate the layout for this fragment
        val view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_update, container, false)

        // Set menu
        setHasOptionsMenu(true)

        // Get bitmap
        bitmap = args.currentItem.image

        view.current_title_et.setText(args.currentItem.title)
        view.current_description_et.setText(args.currentItem.description)
        view.current_mood_spinner.setSelection(mSharedViewModel.parseMood(args.currentItem.mood))
        view.current_mood_spinner.onItemSelectedListener = mSharedViewModel.listener

        // Opens gallery when image button clicked, gets image
        view.current_image_et.setOnClickListener {
            readStorageTask()
            //Intent to pick image
            val intent = Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK)
            intent.type = "image/*"
            startActivityForResult(intent, 1001)
        }

        return view
    }

I'm trying to make it so that users can edit images in my app and don't know how I would solve this bug, so any help would be greatly appreciated!
