This is phenomenal. If I was funny, I’d join.

you should improve the material conditions of people so they can have enough time to empathize with others

I just want to applaud this absolute gem hidden sneakily in this comment. Well done. Like, get out of here with that excellent anti-capitalism, pro-social, pro-human logic.

I hereby declare this statement to be the new rule of law by which all of society should be run.

I’ve read that the homemade laundry soap is actually soap, not detergent, and that it will over time ruin your machine.

So, I’ve just continued buying laundry detergent and have just used a fraction of what the instructions advise. It’s worked for me. I don’t buy softener or sheets. Couldn’t afford it if I wanted to. But I do have oxyclean on hand only for when I’ve forgotten a load in the washer until it’s stinky or when I wash the dog bed covers or whatever.

Thank you!!

Ha, I got really self-conscious and self-aware about how boring I am being, just staring at my screen.
