Laundry.
It never fucking ends. It's just the sheer volume of it and the dread at putting it all away once dry.
The thing I'm most looking forward to about one day living on my own, is having only one lot of washing to do.
What about you?

The internet.

Can't live with it, can't live without it due to work and life admin. Sick of the anxiety it causes and the way it's ruined society.

I was going to say the same; it's made democracy deteriorate, made people more intolerant, almost destroyed reasonable debate and increased mysogyny.

Clothes moths. The time and money I've spent fighting the wretched things ...

I can’t believe people spend their lives dusting 😂 I haven’t dusted anything since my parents had me doing it when I was 11. Ok, maybe the legs/lid of my piano once every six months?

My neighbours, one side. I'd LOVE them to move.

Clothes and shoes

No more buying them, washing them, storing them, having to choose what to wear every day, no more guilt that they are made using exploited labour and use up the world's resources and create pollution, no more guilt over binning them or giving them to charity shops knowing that they will most likely end up in a third world landfill.

Become a naturist 😂
