Sounds like it doresn’t have what it takes to thrive in this fast paced environment.

If anything says “hand wash”, it’s staying in the store.

Do people sort their washing? I don’t think I’ll ever be this mature.

Cold water, every time. I do my whites separately, because I have enough for a full load. When I had teenagers I did a load of blacks. (That’s also a good place for the occasional red item so it won’t ruin everything else.) But I ain’t smushing anything around in no sink!

And before anyone asks: Yes I have gotten quite good at fixing seams and reattaching buttons.

This shirt is dry-clean only. That means… it’s dirty.

Everything gets washed on permanent press as well. Nearly everything you buy is synthetic fibers or polyester blends now anyway.

when the laundry wants $4.50 for a washer and $2.00 (x2) for a dryer everything is washed together and dried together.
