I believe the myth of Sisyphus is 100% an allegory of house work. “This person angered the gods (had children), so he was doomed to push this boulder up the hill (clean their shit) forever (until the kids grow up, which feels like forever)”.
I neither confirm or deny that I just procrastinated away from jobs to draw my rendition of 'myth of sisyphus' laundry edition

You wouldn’t clean without kids?
rockSlayer@lemmy.blahaj.zone 3 weeks ago
I still clean, but most of the time it’s just a spot clean every few weeks or so. Unlike parents, which need to do a deep clean every week

Cleaning up after a child is not the same as general cleaning.
If you’re an adult, you can get away with cleaning once a week, because you’re capable of taking food all the way to your mouth without dropping it, and you probably have a vague laundry organization system, and some of the time, you out stuff back where you foundil it when you’re done using it.
Kids cannot do any of that shit, so your house accumulates one week worth of responsible adult mess in 11 minutes.

Can I buy this on a t-shirt?
Technoworcester@feddit.uk 3 weeks ago
Unlikely. It was only drawn a handful of hours ago. But this is the internet so 🤷

Do this but for washing dishes instead, as someone who hand washes dishes because I don’t believe in dishwashers that is my biggest Sisiphyan task

What do you mean… you don’t believe in dishwashers…?

Machines of legend, said to have existed before The Collapse, but archeologists have yet to physical evidence, just old tales called “user manuals” passed down from generation to generation.

If he was folding then then I get it.
By the time I get around to fold them the next batch is out of the dryer

When you were studying as a school boy I wad doing laundry, when you graduated high school I had long since graduated laundry. When you were in college I already had a doctorate in laundry. Now you’re linens are soiled, the red is ruining your whites, and you have the audacity to ask me for help, with your laundry

Is this OC?
Technoworcester@feddit.uk 3 weeks ago
Yes and no.
Yes, it’s OC. No, it’s not mine, mate of mine drew it and sent it to me with the text (I advised her I would steal it).
She also to has since sent me an updated version.

Does she have some public-facing social account we should credit when we steal it?
Fmstrat@lemmy.world 2 weeks ago
Would you/she be willing to share a high rez version with me so I can turn it into a 3D relief for my laundry room?
