Clothes are drying in record time!!!!

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Ive got the wash going.

I’m hoping I can still make it before the sun goes away!

Today was all about mixing whites and colours. Two large loads. Done. Fuck the labels and warnings.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 9 points 1 month ago (2 children)

I have never ever separated clothes by colours or anything, just throw it all in.

Nothing bad has ever come from that, even throwing new colourful clothes into a wash with old white clothes. Never had colour leech, nothing has ever broke or whatnot.

But it may also have to do with the fact that I wash everything in cold water, not hot πŸ€·πŸΌβ€β™€οΈ

Stay mad lol it's worked for me so far and it will continue to work for me until it doesn't πŸ˜‚

I'm waiting for one normal person to tell me they do things correctly. Just one and I'll be happy.

[–] Eagle@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

πŸ‘‹ here! Not normal but I do know how to separate my loads.

[–] CEOofmyhouse56@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

Thank you. Thank you. Someone gets the importance of not turning everything a shade grey.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 3 points 1 month ago

All I can offer you is that I don't put StepOne undies in the dryer, they get hung up to dry per the label haha

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I did the same thing. For whatever reason my whites stay white so not much to complain about.

No need when 98% of your wardrobe is black

[–] bacon@aussie.zone 6 points 1 month ago

I have been exposed.

[–] StudChud@aussie.zone 4 points 1 month ago

I resemble this comment

[–] Duenan@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month ago

Suns gone but it’s sort of warm outside.

I wonder if it’s still worth putting something outside?
