@_artml_ @idobadtakes @constans idk when i’m hanging stuff i won’t tumble dry it takes like.. two minutes? if you are genuinely that stretched your time is probably valuable enough to just pay someone to do your laundry

@vt__snowflake guess who is very sick with the flu and just watched HOURS of youtube videos comparing ancient linen samples to modern linens at the microscopic level

it is a constant refrain in american culture that everything is made more poorly than in the past. wrt the lifetime of textiles (clothing, bed and bath linens, etc), it might be worth asking yourself if the fact that your grandma did not own a dryer is relevant
constans@constans

Wheee do euros get the idea that a dryer will ruin their clothes? I wash my tshirts after every wearing, and it’s not like my tshirts are falling apart. Are you getting 15-20 years out of your towels instead of “just” 10 years?

@idobadtakes @constans my mom still line dries pretty much everything she washes and let me tell you, there is nothing like putting on a shirt or getting into a bed w/sheets that were dried in the sunshine. They just feel and smell *so* good. And the smell changes with the season, it’s rly nice

@idobadtakes @constans Yeah it absolutely beats the shit out of textiles. Actually it’s kind of ironic how everyone bemoans how clothes and linens used to last decades but now fall apart within years- must be evil corporations, the fact that grandma line-dried everything is completely unrelated

I'm always fascinated by prolific playboys like Trump and 50 Cent who have never drank.

@DexterDaygame Yep. I quit a long time ago but still meet women for drinks. You can’t fight what works

saw a lady giving away a set of some rather nice dining chairs for free on FBM. thought they looked familiar, image searched, msged her saying she might want to ask a reasonable price instead. “oh i ended up selling them for $100, i thought they were ugly.” see below for reveal

I Haven’t thought about eBay in over 10 years. They’re still doing $10B+ in revenue. Serious question: Who is actually using it?

tbf I can’t remember our exact rent, but it was ~$500-600 a head for four bedrooms and the apartment was like 1,500 square feet. These days in the same building you get 350sqft (lol) for two grand
