Oh hey! It's that thing I use to put on decals and melt perler beads!
It's the thing I use to apply edge trim on chipboard counter tops.
Love that adjustable Rowenta steam powered edge bander!
No that's clearly the tool for waxing snowboard

Our contribution to reducing climate change
Did we?
No, the boomers with all their magic environment poisoning synthetic fabrics with antiwrinkle coatings did. The next seven generations will have microplastics in every part of their body, but I haven't touched an iron in a while.
This stuff was invented and worn by the parents and grandparents of boomers. Just because it’s old doesn’t mean a boomer was involved.
Wrinkles are so in right now
Yup, and honestly, looking at the particular takes Gen-X'ers had when they/we were in charge of the culture, this is completely unsurprising.
I iron only when I need to wear a suit and be presentable. This is less than once a year
If only we didn't do that by moving to fabrics that throw off microplastics
idk about you but my tshirts are just made of cotton
I just put everything on a hanger and gravity gets rid of the wrinkles
Two options for dealing with wrinkles:
There is a third option: wear wrinkly clothes and dgaf.
i mean, i just put it on the hanger straight out the dryer and then the wrinkles never develop
Or just iron them.
A dryer??
I live in a apartment without laundry in unit...
Does nobody here wear shirts to work?
Bro this is Lemmy
Dress shirts might need a little buffing up, or you can use a steamer. But most of my cotton shirts don't need ironing at all.
If you hang them up straight out of the dryer, you don't need to iron them. Though that might depend on what kind of shirt you have. I specifically buy the no iron ones.
I don't have a dryer, but I just hang them up to dry on the clothes hanger. Probably works even better, since the weight of the water pulls them straight.
Yes, and they're wrinkled as fuck.
And fortunately, nobody cares.
I feel like all the wrinkles disappear 5 seconds after wearing my Clothing snyways
I know the fucks I give disappear about that quickly.
Work?
Glad I did my part.
Glad I did my part.
Glad I did my part.
That's what the dryer is for
My mum would iron everything. Then I moved out a few years ago. I still do not own a clothes iron.
My mum used to iron my boxers.
I used to know someone that wore a suit to work but he never took his jacket off. Reason being is he only ironed the front part of his shirt.
I personally like to steam my stuff, I hate wrinkles too much.
I have a mister I use to spray down plants or my frogs to get rid of wrinkles
I finally got rid of my iron a couple years ago. I had used it like three times in 15 years. It always felt like I was the only one who hated ironing this much though
its needed to sell them and mabye some Really Really fancy events
