CW: rambling about cleaning
#microfiber is so fuckin overrated bro. i've seen so so much stuff online talking about how microfiber cloths are soooo good for #cleaning and like... they're ok for stuff like carpet where it's not a big deal to not get things Completely clean, but if you use a microfiber cloth to clean glass then you have mostly just now transferred all the hair and little bits of dust that were on the cloth onto the glass surface. stuff that washing the cloths never seems to fully get off (or it just picks up more at some point between washing and putting the cloth away lmao).
not to mention that it's yet more petrochemical-derived plastic bullshit, which i generally try to avoid if there's a reasonable alternative -

In case anyone wounders what kind of #stockings I can recommend for everyday use:These ones!
https://ebay.us/ogkmAUThey're also available in many other colours in case someone needs something even more exotic than #RoyalBlue to complete one's #outfit.

A plastic #microfiber found in the exhaled breath of a bottlenose #dolphin is nearly 14 times smaller than a strand of hair and can be seen only with a microscope.
The ocean releases #microplastics into the air through surface froth and wave action. Once the particles are released, wind can transport them to other locations.

Irrotin tänään eläkeläiseltä tarrat ja hinkkasin mikrokuituliinalla liimat pois. Toimii!
Tarrat oli pakko lopulta poistaa hygieniasyistä. Ovat olleet lähes 8 vuotta kannessa kiinni. Toki aina uusia voi laittaa, mutta nyt saa eläkeläinen olla hetken alasti.

Better yet, wear clothes made of shorn #wool, #hemp, #bamboo, #flax, or #OrganicCotton.
How do you tackle #microplastics? Start with your washing machine.
Simple filters could help remove #microfiber pollution from your #laundry. But experts say a broader portfolio of solutions is needed to address the problem.by Saqib Rahim, Apr 19, 2023
"As environmental challenges go, microfiber pollution has come from practically out of nowhere. It was only a decade or so ago that scientists first suspected our #clothing, increasingly made of #synthetic materials like #polyester and #nylon, might be major contributors to the global #plastic problem."Today a growing body of science suggests the tiny strands that slough off #clothes are everywhere and in everything. By one estimate, they account for as much as one-third of all microplastics released to the ocean. They’ve been found on #MountEverest and in the #MarianaTrench, along with tap #water, #plankton, shrimp guts, and our poo."

#Cigarettebutt filters are #toxic! They are made of a semisynthetic material and contribute to #microfiber pollution. They also contain 1000s of #chemicals. We found that leachates induced mortality and developmental deformities in midge larvae.

These #microfiber #LensWipes are officially BACK IN STOCK!
FYI: The #Amazon listing says 1-2 months, but it actually ships in more like 1-2 weeks at most. Amazon is just bad a estimating things.
This is because Amazon is currently working on disseminating the stock throughout their distribution network. Once that's done, the shipping times should go back down to just a couple of days like normal. :-)#DontPanic #BackInStock #InStock #HitchhikersGuide #Glasses #GlassesWipes #CleaningCloths #HoopyFrood #Guide #LensCloths #Microfiber #MicrofiberCloths
