    Hang drying clothes is so much better in my opinion. You save electricity and save your clothes.

      For a while I moved in with my friend and his mom while I was looking for an apartment.

      There were two things in that house that drove me wild

      1. No drying rack for clothes anywhere
      2. You cannot use the option on the drier that actually leaves the clothes dry because it uses too much power

      So basically for a while all my clothes smelled damp because the method to dry your clothes in that house was leave them in a bunch outside until they’re dry.

      Yeah, I could have done better and either bought a thing to dry my clothes on or improvise and put my clothes somewhere to dry, but I had an absolute hell job at the time and my ADHD ass could not get through the executive dysfunction.

      this assumes i am mentally capable of hanging clothes up, which isn’t true

      it’s clothes dryer or moldy clothes, you can guess which i’m going with.

      Also here in sweden we have communal laundry rooms in apartment areas that you can book, so i don’t care about the electricity usage, which is 99.9% renewable anyways :)
