I follow this person on Twitter, and I’m sure she means this literally, and I’m OK with it.

      I’m actually glad my parents never really cared about this stuff although I do personally only rarely wear shoes indoors. Like if I’m doing work and in/out. And outdoor clothes I can only assume means like you were doing hard, sweat-causing labor or otherwise dirty labor. Not like driving to the store and coming home to change into pajamas before you sit on the couch (lol). Like yeah if I go for a jog of course I’m going to get a shower before I sit on my furniture or bed. But otherwise…

      But as a child of Yakub I am accustomed to living in my own filth

        The metric I use for the couch/cushions is like this:

        If I took off the clothes on my body right now, would I put them into the hamper or are they still clean enough to wear again? If they’d go in the hamper, I’m not sitting on the couch with them.

        The metric I use for the bed is much more strict:

        Unless they are clothes I just took out of the drawers/closet, they don’t go in/on the bed.

        Weird to just be assuming that people are white lmao

        but anyway if im alone on that one, maybe I shouldn’t be. So be honest, when was the last time you washed your couch cushions and pillow cases? Grimy mf 💀

          You’re NOT alone and that’s not a white people thing, friend. Absolutely NO outside pants in my bed. Shirts are okay as long as they’re not grody, but pants are right out.

                imagine having a bedroom couch, mind blown (okay not exactly, but I’m pretty sure even my wealthiest friends/family don’t have a whole couch in their bedrooms, maybe a chair or bench…)

                my dumb ass would probably sleep on it every night. I don’t know what it is, I don’t sleep well on couches, but it is 10x easier to fall asleep on them

                  My partner and I aren’t super rich or anything, but having a bedroom couch is dope

                  They ARE very easy to fall asleep on… but once we got a like 3” memory foam mattress topper, BED is horrifyingly sleepable. If you don’t have one, springing for one of those is the best decision I’ve ever made for sleep. …except in the mornings, when getting out of the most comfy thing ever is a NIGHTMARE

      thinking back to the person who I know who (consensually) sprays guests’ backs with alcohol before they’re allowed to sit on any soft furnishings in their home
