I hope in the future we don't have to clean so many things (beehaw.org)

I know a lot of people have big dreams for the future but personally I just wish we get more things that are self-cleaning. Imagine not having to make the bed. Imagine clothes that you only need to clean once a month. I hate that so much of adult life is spent cleaning over and over again, and that even when you deep clean you know you're gonna have to do it all again.

It sound so childish but I feel like I'd have so much more free time

I just try to buy clothes that can take the abuse. Once the bright colors get washed a few times, everything goes in together. Whites get bleached in their own cycle on occasion. It’s worked out goods enough.

This just isn’t where I’m willing to dedicate my time and energy.

Cleaning has always been a good enough type activity… I try to hold back a bit, or I’d be on everything with a tooth brush getting it perfect.
