#and i Hate. washing dishes by hand

[mokeonn]

One of my favorite things about being in my early 20s is that I'm starting to understand that I can use things not for their intended purpose. When you're growing up, you get told what an object is and what its intended purpose is, and as a kid/teen, I just accepted all of it at face value. As a young adult it's finally clicking that I can simply do things a different way if it makes me happier. Sure, I was taught that you stand to take a shower, but there's nothing stopping me from just sitting if I don't feel like it, ya know? I might have always had my medication in the kitchen, but if I'm no longer remembering to take it, I can just move it somewhere where I can remember. You don't have to specifically store all food in the kitchen, you can have a little snack cart or snack station in another room.

The downside to finding out the various ways you can use objects is that you develop habits that would probably go on an r/relationships post where everyone says you're a little freak.

#simon says #i just developed a new habit (it's too tmi to put here) and I just know that it's some weird shit #it works and it makes me feel better so I'm gonna keep doing it #but it's some shit that would end up viral where everyone would go 'yo op you should break up with them thats weird' 😔 #i was just thinking about this though because every week or so I learn that I can just do what I want #because there's no fucking object use police I can do what I want #i HIGHLY suggest getting into this habit. if you find something annoying or frustrating you can just do it differently #'I hate washing the dishes because my legs hurt from standing for so long' you can bring a chair and sit or you can break it up into chunks #like on the one hand I'm learning this because I have autism and a plethora of other mental disorders #and it's FINALLY clicking that I can self accommodate whenever and however I so please #I'm just sorta learning that if doing something makes me feel better/happy/gets the job done to do that thing #even if it requires using an object in an odd way #hell there's even some little things I've been playing with #for example: my whole life we sorta just lifted blinds only about halfway up #just sorta how we did it ya know #well recently I decided I wanted more natural light in the sunroom/my office so I wouldn't have to turn on the lamp #and I lifted the blinds all the way up to the very top #and honestly?? it fucking rules. the room looks nicer; i get natural light; i can see the forest out back and it's quite calming and nice #like for ages I just never thought about doing that because it just never occurred to me that I could #i just always put blinds about halfway up because that's about how high blinds do in my household #another little one I learned is that I can just... wash my hair #sometimes when I get too depressed or if my body doesn't need a shower but my hair is greasy #I just shove my head under the bathtub facet and wash my hair #it's just a small thing but for years if my hair needed to be washed I would just take a full shower #now I just fix my greasy hair. bc greasy hair is a huge ick for me but sometimes my body is still clean or im too tired to fully shower #like there's nothing stopping me from doing that and it doesn't hurt anyone. it's just a way of bathing that I wasn't taught #but yeah those are some recent examples of me learning I can just... do stuff differently #the free will is kicking in babes and it has decided I love finding ways to use things differently #it's why im doing a bg3 run where I just press loot all no matter what and use whatever I can in odd ways #anyways I might delete this later might not who knows

This one is for the No Dishwasher crowd only.

Brought to you by looking at my sink which is full of one of these types of dishes and absolutely dreading the task ahead of me

#i am not including pots and pans and other things that have to be hand washed regardless #this is only for the mundane dishes that we’d all automatically put in a dishwasher IF WE HAD ONE #i also didn’t include water bottles #felt like that would lead to an automatic sweep #essentially I’m trying to see if everyone hates washing the same dish I hate washing #poll

doing laundry but at what a cost

#the cost is getting up early and going before work instead of getting an extra hour and a half of sleep #fucked if true #in unit laundry is a need for whereever i move next #its even more important than a dishwasher. at least u dont have to leave home to wash ur dishes by hand. #im soooo sleepy but i am also out of clothing and my scrubs are all dorty and i wouldnt have another chance to do a wash until the weekend #and i Hate going to the laundromat on thr weekend #im braver than the us marines for this #whatever the fuck

Can't let anyone forget about my practically obscene love of mushrooms. I will post about it constantly.

#speculation nation #im a little freak actually so i hope my collection of new followers r fine with that #loving mushrooms is not freak material but the level that i love them kind of is #this isnt even getting into my other odd eating habits. of which i have many. #or my habit of sampling anything and everything at work so long as it's Technically edible #up to and including plain matcha concentrate and rose concentrate and vanilla paste #and hazelnut extract and vanilla extract and caramel extract and #ive eaten plain coffee beans before and in fact DELIGHT in taking the lemon ginger shots. just plain lemon juice mixed with ginger juice #ginger juice as in just juice from the ginger. not a ginger beer no just straight ginger concentrate. i love that shit. #let's see what are other things ive sampled at work...? #plain sugar syrups. always awful. hate sweet shit like that. i will still sample them tho if i get some on me #uhm. boba dough. which ive heard unprocessed tapioca is uh. toxic. but i think ours is processed? #i havent gotten poisoned from it yet! and handmade boba dough is actually pretty tasty #raw store bought boba is one of the worst tastes and textures ive ever experienced tho #which yes i have sampled that too. and spat it out bc i couldnt bring myself to swallow. awful awful awful. #it's kinda a running joke at my workplace that i will sample basically Anything #i cant help it 😭 the other day there was a lil bit of vanilla paste left over on the tablespoon #so i just went and dripped it into my mouth w/o thinking on my way to put the tablespoon in the dish area #& the employee just saw me physically cringe. drop the tablespoon at the sinks. then rush to the hand washing sink to rinse my mouth #& he was just like. 'did you just SAMPLE that????' #& i had to be like. '....yeah😭😭😭😭😭' #to b fair some months ago he saw me sample the rose extract. run to the sink to rinse my mouth #then 15 mins later. not learning my lesson. sample the vanilla extract. then run to the sink to rinse my mouth. #the vanilla extract was slightly nicer than the rose extract. bc at least it didnt make my tongue numb (like the rose did) #Flavor Shock. that shit's real man #anyways ramble post is rambles. i just dont want anyone to think im cool or anything lmfao

I think I wash the dishes a bit too often

#the kitchen sink is minuscule and i hate seeing dishes accumulate #so i basically wash everything I use immediately #also this soap dries my hands a lot #dang

EEK EEK ABORT MISSION. THE TEENAGERS ARE MOVING INTO OUR HOUSE TOMORROW.

#john rambles #long story short theyre getting evicted for the second time in a handful of months #and of course. because we care about them. they are. moving in. to our house :) #SO now we're going to have! #a woman and her two sons living in our guest bedroom! great! #these kids have been eating us outta house and home :( #and their mother (my aunt) is extremely... whiny. and honestly abusive to them #so i can't wait until i eventually Have Had It and snap at her for her treatment of them :P #especially cause one of them is autistic and the other has ODD and she does not treat either of them with care #yes i am scared of them. but i respect their mental illnesses and what they need because of said mental illnesses #mainly i'm worried about their pet cat too!!! kratos can't come here because all our cats hate him! :( so i don't know where he's gonna go #sorry for the tag rant gosh! :( i'm just a bit stressed and worried #and overwhelmed by the amount of food leaving our cupboards #and the amount of dishes re-piling into our sink because we can't wash them faster than they're used if there's 7 people living here

after a week and a half we are finally getting our new dishwasher (praying emoji) it started leaking and the last two times our landlord tried to replace it, both of the replacement dishwashers had gashes in them

#this is really mundane but there's nothing more painful than going from having a dishwasher to not having a dishwasher #i hate washing dishes by hand!!!!!!! plus i know it's not as effective OR energy efficient! #t

#cw negative #its not that bad i just need 2 rant for a bit #because like why does my mother say such ridiculous shit sometimes #i went to go wash my dish and she said ah youre finally doing the dishes .. LIKE i try to but what do i do when my brother insists on doing #it everytime ! and takes it from my hands and blocks the sink and he’ll make a big fuss if i don’t let him do it ! #like literally scold me and tell me to put it down or else he’ll get irritated #i lightheartedly told her that and then she was like well yeah you're still a woman then went on about how its the womans job to [ . . . ] #its really the small things like that i think. she has such outdated beliefs. i hear her saying things like its the womans job to take care #of the house and her man and etc and i'm like ok i Know i literally won't win if i try to do so much as nudge her #but then she also talks about other things that just irk the shit out of me !!! the rapture abortion etc #the one time she told me to my face if she couldve aborted me she would have. making comments on my body and just #i don't hate her. overall we have a good relationship. but its just these small things and her gross outdated beliefs and how gullible she #can be and stuff like that. she tells me i have such an easy life but i can't bear to tell her i was ever suicidal or ever self harmed #because i KNOW she'd tell me i'd go to hell if i ever tried to kill myself #i know this wholeee thing might be really intense and sad and stuff but i'm totally okay /gen i'm just! awfully irritated #thinking back on all those dumbass things she's said and done like. agh;; #its not her fault i think ive noticed a lot of filipina women (or at least the ones around me) tend to hold those beliefs so she was prolly #taught these as a child but . come on!! im so tired of the misogynistic shit she says and . ugh #cw self harm mention #cw suicide mention

Got my whole schedule for today destroyed by a broken cup

#Vent kinda #I was gifted this large mug with hand painted mushrooms on it last year for Christmas #It's such a small thing but it was one of the best gifts I had received for a few years and kinda cut the sourness of the day a little #And today my sister broke it (the 15 one not the 6 one). It was an accident (probably. #My sister really hates washing the dishes and was already in a bad mood from helping babysit) #but it still hurts. #Hurt even more when she tried to point the blame on me for leaving a teabag in it and that being the reason for its fall #It's messing me up pretty bad and I know it shouldn't. It's just a cup. But it hurts knowing that its gone #I also don't know if it's something that can be replaced or not since I don't know where it's from

autistics sound off does the smell of dawn dish soap make you want to fucking kill yourself

"Feels good to get my life in order" I say as I finally empty the clean dishwasher

#it's the small things #small accomplishments #really the biggest thing is now I can put the dirty ones in the dishwasher and get them off the counter and stop feeling disgusting #really it's depression #adulting #I hate doing anything with dishes ya know if I could just have a two basin sink I'd wash everything by hand but nooooo can't have that

[sassyredheadedmess]

I just enjoy hearing you speak so here’s to that 🌻

Hey, man… that feels like a pretty high compliment to someone who compulsively runs their mouth, and has uncontrollably for their entire stupid little life 😅🫶 I’m glad you enjoy the nonsense that spews forth.

Here’s a random little smattering of odds and ends floating around like soap bubbles in my brain.

The last box of strawberries I bought made me smile and squee every time I got them out. They were the epitome of adorable. Tiny lil things, ruby red, with perfect little green hair hats atop their heads. They’re all gone, but I’m still loving them lots.

I made home fries and scrambled eggs this morning. Did you know that you can send your egg making to the stars by simply substituting the milk with a dollop of sour cream?! Bc I’m right now many years old and didn’t know that until a friend recently clued me in. I’ve done it a couple times now, and I’m so fucking grateful for that tip, and wondering wtf I’ve been doing with my breakfast life!

Peach juice + orange juice + vodka = ✨

Heart is full and happy for my children people, this morning. They’re awesome creatures and I’m blessed beyond belief to have the pleasure of being their momma.

Is there a better way to spend a Sunday morning than dancing in the kitchen?

Send me a Sunday 🌻 and I’ll tell ya whatever I want!

#also I hate hand washing dishes #this is what you get when you encourage 😅💓 #thanks for the ask!

[swordrobe]

should i pull the trigger and just buy a countertop dishwasher? pls put your answer in the replies below.

#on one hand it's like 280 #but on the other i'm having to wash dishes by hand and i hate it so much i don't do it enough

[dragonbleps]

too lazy to search for and download a CSP brush that I’m sure must exist

apparently not too lazy to do the Extremely Tedious Task of hand-drawing the repetitive shapes myself instead

#missy rambles #it's like how i hate loading the dishwasher so i wash dishes by hand instead #does it get The Thing done? yes. What did it cost? A lot more Time and Effort #I'm convinced my brain is wired wrong bc I tend towards doing things The Hard Way a lot even when I know an Easy Way exists #like how when i'd drive friends home from work bc their home was between work and my home #but rather than go from their home to my home. i'd drive back to walmart and then drive home #to make sure i knew the way #took several months to break that habit

[ghostlypawn]

its so wild to me how people like/dislike different chores. like wdym you hate folding laundry you’re just sitting there in front of the tv putting clothes into piles?

#how do people LIKE washing dishes #i hate standing there for 10 minutes straight staring at nothing touching grim textures and burning my hands
