My queen size summer-weight comforter, I just toss it in the washer and use the 'delicates' cycle, that cycle uses low agitation. It seems to work fine.

I don't use a sheet betwixt me and it. It's all I ever have on the bed, and I have no heat in my bedroom, but then again, it don't get nearly as cold here in south central Kentucky as I imagine it does in bonnie Scotland.

Wash the comforter? Good grief, next thing you'll be washing the sheets too.

Sleeping without a top sheet is insane to me. What do you do when you get hot under the comforter, but not quite so hot that you want to be completely exposed to the air?

Millennials were killing the "sheets" industry

In fact, top sheets are there to get wadded up all the way at the bottom.

Pull it down some. Not exactly a brain sprainer...

But then the bottom half is still too hot and the top half too cold.

what is this mushy mealy abomination of an apple I am eating? It's peak apple season! Any apple you eat now should be an epicurean delight.

An apple that looks good after being handled, transported, and stored...
grown for shelf appeal, not epicurean delight.

Facebook and Youtube are censoring posts and unpublishing videos containing the name "Eric Ciaramella" -- but the name was published elsewhere in media and so it is already revealed information

I understand their instinct, but censorship doesn't work.

They're probably more concerned about being targeted for lawsuits (or worse) if anything happens to the whistleblower because he was outed.

CIA whistleblower should've known to use a dog whistle.

Yeah, this. It isn't too far-fetched that he'll be targeted.

In lawsuits perhaps (still costs to defend); but, not boycotts (or worse).

Dollars to donuts Twitters move was a business decision to get a leg up on the competition.
