how should/could laundry work? (hexbear.net)

Under communism, how do we clean our clothes?

  • It's not really efficient for every housing unit to have its own washing machine let alone dryer
    • some people can dry clothes on lines but some can't
  • Washing clothes by hand sucks
  • Laundromats suck
  • Industrialized clothes washing? I have no direct experience with this

And it needs so much water.

To my mind laundry is one of the most intractable issues.

If we all wear the Half Life 2 blue jumpsuits can I just get a clean one in my size? I don't care about specifically getting back my jumpsuit

When I was a little kid it was explained to me that Under Communism this is how things worked. You don't even get your own clothes. Since I was a freaky little kid with a ....distinctive.... fashion sensibility it was horrifying enough.

Now that I'm adult and worn down by the world it doesn't sound like a half bad idea.
