hey. listen. when you use too much detergent in your laundry you aren’t making your clothes cleaner, you are making them degrade faster. the machine isn’t able to rinse out the entire cup of soap you put in, so some of it is left in the fibers of your clothes. when they dry this makes the fabric stiffer and more brittle, so the fibers are more likely to erode and break. over time this makes your clothes wear out much faster than if they were properly rinsed with minimal soap. you are wasting money by overusing detergent, not just on the detergent itself but the clothes you are shortening the lifespan of.
you are also ruining your clothes by cramming too many into the wash at once. the machine washes them by agitating them and rubbing them together but if they’re crammed in there there’s more friction. so they’re less likely to get clean and they’re wearing each other out. don’t use tiny loads of laundry bc that’s a waste of water but focus on medium sized loads with only a tablespoon or two max of laundry detergent.
you can also hang up your cotton shirts to dry to prevent them from shrinking in the dryer, and to maximize the lifespan of printed graphics on your shirts or sweatshirts. this saves electricity and keeps your clothes nicer for longer.
fabric softener is a scam, you don’t need it because most detergents come with a softening agent already. dryer sheets are handy to minimize static in the dryer, but you can get a reusable wool ball that does the same purpose so they’re not necessary either.
use bleach detergents sparingly, only if you notice your whites becoming stained or dingy. using bleach on every load of whites will degrade them.
also most of the time you really only need to wash with cool water. unless something is really soiled, (especially with something greasy, remember heat melts and removes grease,) cold water works just fine for day to day dirty clothes.
don’t die wondering if Linux would meet your computing needs equally as good as or better than Windows or Mac. or if you would be cuter after a few months on feminizing hormone therapy
fasjhghajf got a new firefox addon that lets you set themes to automatically switch to between specific times, set it to switch to Scary Red at 1am to scare me into going to bed and it works I got startled so bad when it suddenly changed to thsi fajgghasfj
what if the creepers were the previous generation of villager’s defense system that were replaced by the more advanced iron golems causing these units to be abandoned and left to rust and overgrown with moss
with the operating system deteriorating with time, these units no longer function properly, becoming a hunk of metal filled with explosive faulty electrical components wandering the earth, becoming a hostile mob themselves
i got inspired by all your tags and made this!!!!!!!
