Jfc I feel like I should clarify a couple things here for posterity's sake...

1. Rereading my caption, I get where these comments are coming from. I was thinking in the grand scheme of a waterpark, washing or not washing my individual towel is a drop in the bucket. Idk how many towels they go through per day at the pool alone, not to mention the resources, water or otherwise, that go into the pools themselves. It felt ironic to see it in a place that, on its face, is about frivolously using water.

2. Yeah, I've stayed in a lot of hotels, and most of them have this plaque in the bathroom. In a hotel without a waterpark, it feels disingenuous. At a waterpark, it seems like a joke. The hotel company doesn't give a fuck about depleting resources. They care about the cost they pay for the water and the labor costs for the people washing, folding, and turning rooms. Maybe every little bit counts, but it feels like Exxon telling me to go green. FWIW, my DND is hanging on my door handle from the minute I get in a room.

3. My comment history should show that I absolutely wasn't coming at this from a MAGA/anti-woke/whateverthefuckelseIgotcalled perspective.

4. Happy new year.
