I'm an avid Ann Russell fan on Tiktok (@annrussell03), she has been teaching me how to clean things that I didn't know I needed to clean for so long!

It's pretty much, empty and clean filter at the bottom, wipe the seal, clean the detergent tray (BUT CLEAN STUFF GO IN THERE WHY CLEAN?!?!) and then run a super hot wash without any washing, you can get a washing machine cleaner, or just a couple of cups of bleach. After you're done, leave the door open to air dry (you're meant to do this all the time to prevent mold buildup) and bobs ur uncle ur done!

My washing machine lets me know how often I'm meant to do it, but recommended I think is like every month (but I defo don't do it every month lol)

this reminds me of that scene from New Girl when Nick is like "I'm not gonna clean the towel, the towel cleans me!" 😂

Re washing machines, especially if they're a front loader, leave the door open to prevent mold growing. I nerdily love this IG account for all things appliance repair and maintenance: https://instagram.com/renduhofficial?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=

@laura - I HAVE to know more about why I should maybe date someone who makes me cringe??? I'd been taking it as a sign I'm on the right track that my current partner basically never makes me cringe...

Ty sooo much for doing a culture vulture episode on the Taylor Swift Ticketmaster moment. Being an obvious big fan of Taylor I wanted to know what it was but wasn’t bothered to go into a deep dive!!

Hi SYSCA fans!! Super cool to see the enneagram get a mention (big type 9) and I just wanted to say to anyone learning about it for the first time: read the description of the type you get when you take the test!! Sometimes the test gets it wrong so if the description doesn’t feel like you, it might not be

One more thing: the type descriptions aren’t exactly supposed to feel good. They’re supposed to be a little uncomfy, like they’re hitting a little too close to home (almost like when a close friend calls you out on shit you’re doing that only they would know you’re doing). That’s when you know its probably right
