Its like being a billboard but instead you paid the company a days worth of your labor for the right to advertise on behalf of them while they’re paying others for that same service.

They said “a cool design” and nothing at all about any logo or intellectual property. Maybe it’s a sick dragon playing a guitar.

And that “tagless label” is gone after the first wash too.

Doing their best to kill the used clothing market.

Tagless labels disappearing isn’t ideal. It’s a bummer that clothing has been produced so cheaply over the last some years that now much of it, which is donated overseas, ends up not being worth repairing and/or reselling.

Oh yeah, good shirts are practically the same as vampires or weird rich people.
They need a constant supply of blood to keep up it’s appearance.

Buddy…

  1. Turn your shirt inside out before putting it in the machine.
  2. Set the machine to cold water, delicate/gentle cycle.
  3. The picture you posted is of a dry, hot desert, right? What do you think a machine called a dryer that uses heat will do? Hang them to dry on a cheap rack from Amazon or your shower curtain rod instead.

I have shirts that still look practically new after dozens and dozens of washes.

I actually have a pretty sensitive sense of smell.

The smell is caused by bacteria blooming. If you’re using good detergent, it kills the bacteria. Likewise, soap is bipolar, so one end of the molecule grips the oils you excrete and grime you pick up, and the hydrophilic end gets it all yoinked off during the rinse.

  1. OP can turn them inside out themselves when they take the shirts off and put them in the dirt clothes hamper.
  2. You don’t change the settings for every individual article of clothing. You turn the knob or press the button once. This is not hard.
  3. Hanging stuff up is easier and faster than folding it. The actual drying part is slow though.

I don’t know what’s more sexist. the comment above or the fact you played off of it seriously. Especially with point 1. Like it doesn’t even register that the above comment was an insult and not serious at all and you took that sexist joke to a serious place to play off that men aren’t expected to even be capable to turn a knob and that is somehow acceptable. Do them better than this.

How do you insert an image like this in comments? I can only get the link to the image to show up. Thanks.

For me it’s the 5th button above the typing field for a reply/comment (bold/italic/link/emoji/“upload image”). There is also the syntax format you can manually do which you can find in the formatting help link. an ! with [] then (url) no spaces (hard to show without the format wanting to change it).

edit: I believe the proper use of “upload image” is if you want to share an image from your device which it uploads onto the lemmy server space, using the url to link to another website also works but there is always the problem of size/format of the image and if that link becomes broken your image won’t show.

If you are on the correct website, you may have a view source button, so you can see the markdown source everyone writes to form their post.

Even just hang drying will do wonders. Also for your budget. That’s like 5 dollars a week saved.

We hang dry most of my wife’s stuff because it’s more delicate, hand made garments and such, but even that takes up two of those foldable hanging rack things. If we did all mine too we’d have no room to walk in our apartment. Just another way it costs more to be poor.

It’s amazing how much it costs to use dryers. At least with California’s energy prices.

almost all of those cheap iron on thick ass layered prints do this. they grate your skin then dissolve off the shirt. I’ve taught my 9 year old how to pick out good graphic tees, no shitty iron on mass produced trash.

This happened to me with a shirt I got for pride almost a year in advance that said “GAY TRASH” and when I went to wear it all it said was “G AS”

I still think about that to this day
