- Comment on how do you separate your clothes and linens to avoid fabric degradation and bleeding? 1 week ago:
I separate by the kind of detergent and cycle a thing is run on.
Gym/sleep t-shirts, denim, towels all get a hot wash with oxi-clean and fabric softener because I love the smell come at me bro.
Elastics - things that are mostly elastic/spandex/polyester - socks, underwear, leggings, sports bras. They get a hot/cold wash with a pre soak and extra rinse. The detergent that washes cleanest and leaves no smell.
Daily wear/delicates - gentle cold wash with woolite with low tumble dry or hang dry. I only ever have like 4 of these with each wash. Generally the nice, more expensive stuff I wear in public that I want to last a long time.
I don’t care what color anything is.

It would be easier for other republicans to Shane him and hold him accountable. Trump is immune to those things in a way nobody else is. The cult of personality doesn’t just shift to JD Vance.
- Comment on Do you actually care about your friend's new baby, vacation abroad or similar life events or are you just being nice? 2 months ago:
It doesn’t necessarily have to be about a trip you took. It could be about anything, even something you feel you were specifically asked about. Do you think the people who ask you about those things really care about the things you care about the same way you do and so they want to hear everything you have to say? Maybe they do, but it’s really very rare for people to care about things the exact way anybody else does.
Just because somebody asked doesn’t mean they care about the thing. A significant majority of the time people ask, and then actually listen, it’s because they care about you, not any particular thing. And those people probably like to be heard just as much.

Do you think everyone you talk to enjoys every aspect of the things you have to talk about? Do you appreciate that they listen?

I feel like if you’re unsure enough to ask the Internet about something like this, the safest bet is to just not do it.
Sounds like you’re gonna do it anyway, tho, so good luck.

Must be nice.
- Comment on If you take care of your parents or other elderly, how are you preparing to age gracefully? 7 months ago:
I’m moving into a retirement community. Get in there early enough and they have to take care of you until you die. But before that point, retirement communities are like dorms without having to worry about grades or getting pregnant. Lotta syphilis, though, I hear.

My mom deserves to be yelled at but she’s incapable of introspection, so it’s just a waste of breath. 75% of the time, husband does not deserve it. :/
Otherwise let’s just say I’m texting this during my vape in the bathroom break! Slay it, queen!
- Comment on Does the USPS, FedEx and UPS give a crap about weed shipments since Hemp sprayed with th same terpenes and looks the same as weed has been shipped legally for 9 years now? 1 year ago:
There’s also an exception if they can’t read the delivery address; they have the authority to open the package to try to determine delivery address. So make sure your label can get a little wet and still be readable.
- Comment on Do the people in Reniassance festivals pccurring in Brotain also speak with faked British accents, or do they ise faked French/Iralian accents? 1 year ago:
The Renaissance is not “sone homogeneous past”, it’s a pretty specific time period, the 15th and 16th centuries.

Word on the street is that American English is actually closer to the English spoken by the British when they first landed and colonized the Americas. After the war they went back to their lil island and forgot how to pronounce their Rs.
- Comment on How should I handle an ex friend who feels like he needs to bully me to raise his own self esteem? (We're adults) 1 year ago:
Maybe you just don’t know the definition of “irony”. People use it improperly all the time. I don’t think anything in that song by Alanis Morissette is actually ironic.
Personally, I don’t think there’s ever an excuse for cheating; academically it really only harms the cheater. People in college offered me a lot of money to do their work for them. I never accepted, but I also never tattled on them. Grades honestly, really, don’t matter in the long run.

That’s not irony, it’s karma? Consequences? Definitely not irony, though.
