I’d say guilty but I do it without shame.
“This shirt is dry clean only… which means it’s dirty.” -Mitch Hedberg
For real. No pansy ass clothes or dishes in my house. Not machine washable? We’ll see. You’re about to find out your limits.
Hand wash only you say?
No problem, I’ll turn the program wheel on my laundry machine past the hand wash program on the way to the same eco program I use for everything else.
Absolutely this, except for me it’s the mixed load program.
Glad I’m not the only one who does not GAF. I do always have a thing about drying on low heat but that’s just me.
The same with the dishwasher with a few exceptions. Welcome home new storage containers, good luck.
Yep, maybe top rack if I’m feeling kind. But might as well discover any problems right away.
Always cold water for everything. Separate colors from any whites you want to stay white. Check known stains as you take them out, and rewash any that remain before you dry those items. Anything new gets one wash by itself unless you love the color so much you want your entire wardrobe to be that shade.
Never done any of that, can’t say I’ve ever had any issues.
Same but my whites look like Soviet concrete
So, you never wash in cold?
Hot water (and warm bc it contains hot) carries more contaminants and wastes energy and sets protein stains
But hey, do as you will, it’s your wash.

Most people use too much detergent
Yeah, if it doesn’t survive the laundry gauntlet, I wasn’t meant to own it.
I put things to laundry by their vibes (e.g. - stronger or more delicate materials get appropriate wash modes) and only pay attention on labels to whether stuff could be ironed - learned hard way with one of my favourite jackets. 😢
Reminds me a lot of the energy from https://lemmy.world/post/44725430
This is nearly identical to a very old Dilbert comic.
Generally speaking you are right but Kashmir wool will shrink if you put it in the washer so don’t risk it.
