It’s so common to air dry clothes here in New Zealand, people who use dryers are actually shamed. (The sun *is* quite strong here...)

I don’t think it’s cheap to do that at all, especially with nicer shirts that can be ruined in the dryer. They’ll dry perfectly fine on normal hangers, these are just a cool way to speed up the process a little.

The majority of the world air dries so it’s not like it’s taboo or anything.

I find that partially air drying clothes makes them last longer and fade less. I tumble dry them for a few minutes to toss out the wrinkles, then hang them on hangers from my door frames.

Props to Sam/Tara: this was perfect.

It is flagrantly criminal to accept tax payer money to perform a job you refuse to perform. It is theft of public funds and fraud.

I think Japan, Australia & the UK need to hold an intervention at this point

“We care for you. We can’t see you keep hurting yourself like this...”

You know what? As a gay person who’s been subjected to repeated legal discrimination—including being blocked from marrying my partner of over a decade until a couple of months ago, being subject to a ban on LGBT adoption, having to hire an attorney to draft POA and hospital visitation documents just so I could see my…

Doesn’t DropBox already do this with File Requests?

Clearly I’m ancient, and I also didn’t have your stylebook close at hand.

My late husband fought the salary sharing ban on aerospace in the 80s and 90s by simply sharing his salary with all of his peers every time it changed. It irked his bosses but theY never retaliated because his skills were valuable.

Just do what I did in high school: have no sex and no friends. I turned out just fine!

Between the Gawker article comments on Men Who Kill and this study, I think I’m done for the day.

Why is golf “less satisfying”? Because you’re not as good at it as you are at using an extremely deadly weapon to blow up inanimate objects?

That’s a dumb argument now-a-days. When the Bill of Rights was written, it was possible for a populace to fight back against the government when the government only had muskets and cannons.

Try armed rebellion in 2015 and see how long that shit lasts. The U.S. government would turn even a well-armed militia into Swiss cheese before Joe Blow’s first shell casing hit the ground. This argument is pathetically weak.

I love guns. I love to hunt. I love to go to the range for fun.
