Spring Cleaning With TSP

As part of the results of hair-shirt environmentalism and enshittfication of everything you likely have noticed that your clothes are not as clean as they used to be some years ago, even as you've had to buy high-efficiency washing machines and detergent.

 This is because environmentalists and progressives worked to remove phosphates from laundry detergents. Clothes haven't been properly clean since.

This has not gone unnoticed: Why Everything Is Dirtier

Strangely enough, one can find trisodium phosphate,  TSP on Amazon. 

Now I'm certainly not suggesting that one should theoretically take 1/4 cup of TSP, dissolve it in hot water (beign careful not to splash it one yourself), and then add it to your laundry washing water, add detergent and then add your dirty clothes and run the laundry.

But, if you theoretically did, and again certainly not advocating doing such a thing, you might very well notice they come out one heckuva lot cleaner than without the added TSP.  

WD-40 - Is There Anything It Can't Do?

Other than not using it to clean or lubricate firearms (it tends to gunk up the mechanisms over time), WD-40 has a ton of uses beyond separating rusted metal, lubricating locks, and making hinges stop squeaking.

Readers Digest has a ton of additional uses for WD-40 that I never knew were possible with the stuff.
