You think my ADHD ass is ever unloading a drying rack? The dishes would just live there and I’d always be cramming new ones into it.

If only we had some technology that could dry a dish immediately and didn’t take up tons of space or grow mold… like some kind of flexible, absorbent material that sucks up the water? We should have NASA work on it

I‘d prefer some sort of drying rack machine that also automatically cleans the dishes in the first place. That’d be a crazy concept. Like, you load in dirty dishes and then you wait a little and bam, they’re clean and (mostly) dry.

Sure, but not everything goes in the dishwasher

If my dishes are unable to survive the dishwasher gauntlet, they are too weak to stay in my kitchen

Yeah I tried that but my wife loves the wooden spatulas and cutting boards too much

Water conservationist take^

I mean that’s what we can fall back on if we’re feeling bashful, getting critiqued for that perspective

That's not what your mom told me.

Dishes do. Or at least the ones I have.

But yea, I would never put my good knives into a dishwasher. But I also wouldn’t put them on a rack to dry.

Stick a fan above it. Would dry it quicker.

The waiting time is not the issue
