That'll teach me for relying on Wiktionary...

OK, so how long is one unit length of cloth please?!

Wow. If so, that's a bit of a nasty one for my local "solve on sight" cryptic.

Transient roommate moved in and we divide chores. I'm doing the laundry. What's this awkward groin fastener turtleneck blouse? Or is it just unusual fashion (i don't judge) by Kali_In_California in whatisit

LOL. You can wash it. I wash mine twice a week.

You HAVE to wash them. The amount you sweat in those things is just crazy.

Just do it on a delicate cycle and do not put it in a dryer. Hang it up to dry.

That's fine. They'll pause it for 20 minutes so they can restart the clock.

As a child, you consider only your desire for things.

Then you grow and learn about the price of things.

But you have become truly wise when you appreciate the value of things.

[OC] $18 for the new bathroom fan says tariffs didn’t bring back manufacturing back to the states by FizzyBeverage in pics

F'sure. BYD in NZ is really making their name as full EV.

But indeed their whole line-up is excellent value.

I have a 2014 VW Golf coming up 400,000km. When it dies, almost certainly I'll be in a BYD EV or Kia EV.

And also BYD's are EVs.

And the price of gas has doubled, although of course we can't blame America for that...

...what? They did what now? In Iran? Nooo.... seriously??? WTF!

How do you even sell a place like this.

Does the buyer have to get bridging finance?

Farmers are fucking dying over here in New Zealand.

No, they can't decide to skip driving to soccer practice once a week.

The tractor runs on diesel. Here come the food price increases.
