ah you haven’t had to deal with women’s clothing I see. A significant portion is hand wash only, esp if it’s even vaguely nice. Tho some random regular shit is still slapped with hand wash only.
So you’ve got a ton of hand wash only stuff, and you live in a shack because that’s all you can afford in this society. So you have the kitchen sink (gotta clean the sink real good, an extra hassle) or a collapsible (collapses in use on occasion) wash bin to do hand wash in, yet you have a ton of wash to hand wash.
So you channel shadow and divine what is machine washable and what isn’t to bring the hand wash burden back to reasonable!
Let’s not even get into the duckin square footage I need to line dry all that bullshit fuck
“LIE FLAT” OK 3 PIECES FLAT WILL COVER MY FLAAAAAAT
Very rarely, a men's shirt says "lie flat to dry". I own one. I toss it in the dryer, it's fine. Don't do this to anything you really like though, there's usually a good reason they say that.
Haha, got it.
Took years, but we have a special delicates washer and delicates are allowed to be cleaned on gentle.
She hand washed for the first few decades of her life though, so I know what you mean.
The dream✨✨
