Today was all about mixing whites and colours. Two large loads. Done. Fuck the labels and warnings.
I have never ever separated clothes by colours or anything, just throw it all in.
Nothing bad has ever come from that, even throwing new colourful clothes into a wash with old white clothes. Never had colour leech, nothing has ever broke or whatnot.
But it may also have to do with the fact that I wash everything in cold water, not hot π€·πΌββοΈ
Dyes have greatly improved the past 20 years
Ah that's also good to know!

Stay mad lol it's worked for me so far and it will continue to work for me until it doesn't π
I'm waiting for one normal person to tell me they do things correctly. Just one and I'll be happy.
All I can offer you is that I don't put StepOne undies in the dryer, they get hung up to dry per the label haha
π here! Not normal but I do know how to separate my loads.
Thank you. Thank you. Someone gets the importance of not turning everything a shade grey.

My whites are still white....those labels are full of lies!!!
You're an animal!
I did the same thing. For whatever reason my whites stay white so not much to complain about.

Suns gone but itβs sort of warm outside.
I wonder if itβs still worth putting something outside?
