Inflation is high, making electricity expensive.
Our dryer died, I’m lazy, and the repairman is expensive.
But worst of all, humanity is polluting the world in crazy ways. We collectively need to cut back on how much energy we use so we don’t make the planet uninhabitable for ourselves. Climate change is expensive.
Enter the humble clothesline. Two posts and a post-hole digger. 150 feet of cotton rope, three tensioners, and six pulleys. Fifty clothespins. About an hour of solid effort.
It’s a small thing, but it neatly solves three problems at once. Plus, the clothes smell nice afterwards!
