mcphersonlaura+FollowAre you still sorting lights and darks clothes before you wash them?This is a classic Millennial dilemma. I grew up with the strict multi-step laundry ritual my parents enforced. We had separate hampers for whites, darks, and towels, and the temperature had to be precisely correct for each load. Now, my spouse and I just throw everything into one machine, run it on cold, and call it efficiency. The arguments are hilarious. On one side, people are militant about sorting to preserve their nice knitwear and avoid the tragedy of a faded white shirt. They argue that sorting makes clothes last 20 years. On the other side, people say modern washers and detergents have made sorting totally obsolete. We are so busy that if we waited to have a full load of just "bright delicates," we would be wearing dirty clothes for a week. There is also a whole sub-group that sorts by what they need to wash hot (towels and underwear) and what they wash cold (all the regular clothes). And then there are the people who just throw everything in and are surprised when they forget a tissue and their dryer looks like a winter wonderland. So where do you stand on the laundry sorting debate? #Millennials #LaundryHacks #Adulting #Chores #DomesticLife 01Share
megan01+FollowWhy Millennials Are ‘Doom Spending’ Instead of SavingEver feel like saving for a house is a lost cause? You’re not alone. With home prices way outpacing incomes, many young Americans are ditching the dream of owning a home. Instead, they’re spending more on travel and treats, and even rolling the dice on risky investments like crypto. Turns out, hope for a house keeps people hustling and saving—but when that hope fades, so does the motivation to play it safe with money. #RealEstate #HousingCrisis #Millennials20Share
bmatthews+FollowI just turned 38 and I have shingles...I have officially crossed into the next stage of premature aging. I just got diagnosed with Shingles and I’m only 38 years old. This is supposed to be one of those conditions you hear your grandparents complain about not something you deal with before you hit 40. I thought I was stressed but apparently my dormant chickenpox virus #Millennials #GenX #Shingles #PrematureAging #BurnoutGeneration #HealthCheck 10Share
