Depicted in the image is Sisyphus pushing his legendary boulder up a hill, written in the boulder are the words, "The fucking dishes and the fucking laundry."

Straight up though I recently learned a really weird way of editing pictures for creative distortion (it involves Audacity (the sound editor)) and I straight up forgot to do both before work.

Yesterday and today.

Good news is I learned a lot on how editing those pictures works. Bad news is tonight's dinner was cereal eaten out of a mug with a fork.

Good washer-driers are had to find but being able to put a single cycle on and come back to fully washed and dried clothing is a huge improvement for ADHD folk over having washing and drying as a two separate processes. Definitely worth the investment.

Oh yeah. I suppose this is very much a North America problem where most of us have a separate washer and dryer and are required to move from one to the other in between. A washer/condensing dryer would certainly fix this. Unfortunately, I rent so there's no chance of me getting one.

In the UK rental properties nearly always include space for a washer and landlords are almost always thrilled when you say "hey, I have my own machine I want to put wear on instead of yours so could you please take that one out." (Assuming they even provide white goods as part of the rental agreement in the first place.)
