        I hate to admit it, but I’ve recently begun ironing my t-shirts… I hated how wrinkly they get after washing them… I can’t be arsed every time though.

          Use the permanent press mode on your dryer and take them out immediately after the dryer buzzes. You can’t just leave them in a scrunched pile though or they will still wrinkle, you have to fold them flat.

          …still less work than ironing though.

            Brave of you to assume someone got a machine dryer. My dryer got a bunch of long metal rods, is foldable and preferably uses solar power. ☀️

      Nah, I just leave everything in the dryer until I need it, or until I have to dry something else. Then, it gets tricky.

      I discovered this ten thousand fold technique; also known as crumpling them into the drawer along with the other laundry spheroids

      Yep, sometimes I’ll treat myself and have a clean basket and a dirty basket sitting there on the floor, but usually dirty clothes go in a pile until they build up to the point that there’s a full load. Then when I build up the willpower to do laundry (usually about 120% of a proper ‘load’ that all just gets stuffed in together) then I’ll rotate the basket.

        I just use my washing machine as my dirty laundry basket. Take it off and not gonna wear it again? Toss it in the washer (or at least in a pile vaguely in front of the washing machine until I get around to actually putting them in…)

        Though, I have also ruined many towels this way because apparently zippers and stuff tend to want to rip out the looped fibers on them.
