Welcome to /c/tumblr, a place for all your tumblr screenshots and news.

Our Rules:

  1. Keep it civil. We're all people here. Be respectful to one another.

  2. No sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia or any other flavor of bigotry. I should not need to explain this one.

  3. Must be tumblr related. This one is kind of a given.

  4. Try not to repost anything posted within the past month. Beyond that, go for it. Not everyone is on every site all the time.

  5. No unnecessary negativity. Just because you don't like a thing doesn't mean that you need to spend the entire comment section complaining about said thing. Just downvote and move on.

You're not my mom, you can't tell me what to do.

Well I am a mom, so I've learned it's a lot less disgusting if you do it every month, but you don't have to listen to me.

Wipe the gasket on your laundry machines

This one got us the other day. My wife was panicking that the washer was leaking. Turns out never wiping the dog hair off the gasket cloggs the weeps holes and it starts to drip onto the floor

If equipped, clean out your detergent/softener dispensors. Most pop out, but some may need a screw or two removed.

Also, some washers have a sump filter that needs cleaning. (little panel at the bottom-left of the front on Samsungs)

"Ever" would be a lot more often than most people.

More importantly, clean your dishwasher vent.

If you didn’t know it had a vent, enjoy cleaning out that mold.
