It really does. And it looks like it wouldn’t be very hard to breast feed while wearing it.

New clothing. I have gone almost 3 years without buying anything new, and suddenly I am like…I need all of the new things. Even before I stopped buying new clothing, it had been a while since I replaced running shorts, short sleeve/long sleeve shirts, and hoodies. All of my clothing has holes and is completely worn out. Now suddenly I can’t stop perusing Athleta and wishing I could buy all the things. I may let my mom buy me some new running shorts from there for Christmas. I want to follow my “only ethically made or used clothing” rules but ughhh I just want some soft amazing running shorts that actually fit me

I have many cashmere sweaters from the thrift store. I wash them in the regular washer, albeit in the delicate cycle. They are lovely and soft and I wear them around the house and to bed.

I second wanting all new running/exercise clothes. Particularly running shorts. New ones that aren’t haunted by the sweat and smell of a thousand previous runs. Soak em, wash em, line dry em - still haunted.

I can empathize. Between a dramatic size change and my gender identity and expression changing I’ve replaced basically my entire wardrobe this year.

I’d be all up in that Duke Nukem original side scroller action.

Haha you’re a bit older than me, but I did rock Duke Nukem 3D though.

At least I didn’t go down the text adventure route which is where I started.
I saw an elaborate oil painting featuring Snoop Dogg as a centaur and I can’t find it online. Alas.

Explain absorbent undies? Is this for everyday wear? Or period?
Would this help with sweat when doing outdoor activities?
Are they a lot thicker than normal undies? Comfortable to wear?

Have you tried the borax/washing soda laundry stripping that is trendy on tik tok?
(All though, I did on my towels and the water was totally clear when I was done. But they weren’t super stinky, so maybe there was nothing to strip.)
I washed my workout clothing and two pairs of jeans that have a perma-mildew smell in the waistband yesterday with a specialty product that is basically washing soda. I soaked the stinky stuff in the washing soda and warm water for an hour or two, then added the rest of the load and ran it with minimal detergent. I can’t smell any of the stink anymore! Which is to say I support new workout clothing, but also, if the stink is the only problem, the washing soda might help.

You can get ones for everyday wear or ones with quite a bit of absorbency for periods - the period ones are a tad bulkier than standard undies, but still much less bulky than wearing a pad. I find that they do absorb sweat nicely in summer, yes.
I find them much, much comfier than a disposable plastic pad (I shudder to remember what those were like! So glad we have so many alternatives now) and comfier than a cloth pad by a lesser margin. I personally like them better than menstrual cups but it’s all very individual.

That is very you and I think you should get it.
I’ve gotten addicted to a puzzle youtube channel (“Karen Puzzles”)- and now I really really want to do jigsaw puzzles.
I want to buy new fancy ones. But we have 7 (3 of which we’ve never done) downstairs.
My husband and I used to do puzzles all the time, but kids make it tough…
I SHOULD NOT buy more puzzles.
I just have the worst case of the gimmies ever. I want everything.

Me right now. And I’ve been buying an absurd amount of stuff, too. But I want MOREMOREMORE. This happens once every couple years.
Pro- I do things like replace socks and underwear that really needs to happen.
Cons- I feel the weird guilt/shame spiral of wanting things and spending money and having some things not be perfectly what I wanted and GUILT.

OOH. Who was mentioning Altra shoes? Their Lone Peak models are on big sale ($80-90 down from $120-140) and all their stuff is like 20% off today. Free shipping to the US. I just ordered some, fingers crossed they work!
