I’m surprisingly level-headed for being a walking knot of anxiety.

Ask me anything.

I also develop Tesseract UI for Lemmy/Sublinks

    I have a drying rack, and I use it too.

    My washer/dryer are in the basement, so unless it’s winter when I need the humidity, it’s already humid down there so the rack’s efficacy is limited (plus, too humid, and I have to run the dehumidifier to prevent mold). Hanging clothes outside is a no-go for me because, like someone else said, birds frequently shit all over the clean laundry.

    I typically pre-dry things on the rack and pop them in the dryer to fluff them up, get the last of the moisture out, and, most importantly, get any remaining dog hair off of them.

    Not to mention, making such a blanket statement like that is a bit rude; you don’t know people’s life situations.

    I’ve learned to just put the sheets in the dryer by themselves and use the sensor-dry setting (they get washed with everything else, though). They dry pretty fast just by themselves, so I don’t think it’s wasting much, if any, energy by splitting them out. Probably at least breaks even since I put the rest of the wash load on the drying rack while those are in.
