    This is me, the only exception is hand knitted or crocheted items. They’re literally the only things I’ll actually respect wash instructions on. If someone takes the time to make me something by hand, or if I spend the time to do it, I’ll treat it right. Otherwise, that shit is going is going into the washer with shirts, jeans, two towels, a flat sheet, a little bleach, some powder detergent, and some downy. I know you’re not supposed to downy towels, but ain’t nobody got time for separating laundry in this bish.

      Towels honestly dry you off SO much better when they’re washed with no fabric softener. It’s worth an extra wash to do towels separately

        Just stop using fabric softener in general. It’s basically liquid plastic coating your clothes. 🤮🤢🤮

      That’s fair. If it’s been hand crafted with love that’s something different than, I dunno, some random sportsball shit I have from Walmart.

        Ew, you have sportsball equipment? The gay agenda is going to need a word with you. You’re hurting our image. We abandoned respectability politics in the 2010s. You need to update your plan, or you could face serious fines and a loss of the ability of walk super quickly for no reason.

      I don’t do bleach or fabric softener, but I will use a garment bag for a style of t-shirts that I like but that fall apart otherwise.
