Welcome to the News community!
Rules:
1. Be civil
Attack the argument, not the person. No racism/sexism/bigotry. Good faith argumentation only. This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban. Do not respond to rule-breaking content; report it and move on.
2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious biased sources will be removed at the mods’ discretion. Supporting links can be added in comments or posted separately but not to the post body. Sources may be checked for reliability using Wikipedia, MBFC, AdFontes, GroundNews, etc.
3. No bots, spam or self-promotion.
Only approved bots, which follow the guidelines for bots set by the instance, are allowed.
4. Post titles should be the same as the article used as source. Clickbait titles may be removed.
Posts which titles don’t match the source may be removed. If the site changed their headline, we may ask you to update the post title. Clickbait titles use hyperbolic language and do not accurately describe the article content. When necessary, post titles may be edited, clearly marked with [brackets], but may never be used to editorialize or comment on the content.
5. Only recent news is allowed.
Posts must be news from the most recent 30 days.
6. All posts must be news articles.
No opinion pieces, Listicles, editorials, videos, blogs, press releases, or celebrity gossip will be allowed. All posts will be judged on a case-by-case basis. Mods may use discretion to pre-approve videos or press releases from highly credible sources that provide unique, newsworthy content not available or possible in another format.
7. No duplicate posts.
If an article has already been posted, it will be removed. Different articles reporting on the same subject are permitted. If the post that matches your post is very old, we refer you to rule 5.
8. Misinformation is prohibited.
Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.
9. No link shorteners or news aggregators.
All posts must link to original article sources. You may include archival links in the post description. News aggregators such as Yahoo, Google, Hacker News, etc. should be avoided in favor of the original source link. Newswire services such as AP, Reuters, or AFP, are frequently republished and may be shared from other credible sources.
10. Don't copy entire article in your post body
For copyright reasons, you are not allowed to copy an entire article into your post body. This is an instance wide rule, that is strictly enforced in this community.

No, you just have to do laundry more than once a week. Most people who don't have their own washer or dryer don't have time for that.
What are you doing where you can't wear pants for a week or a top for 3 days?
Hard labour you don't wear new clothes you wear your old tattered stuff and hand me downs/second hand etc, or toughened workwear.
It sounds like you want to find a reason to do nothing rather than do what you can. Like if you want to avoid enslaving others and animal cruelty your lifestyle will have to change because your lifestyle is based on exploitation. If you don't want to change then get comfortable with slavery, idk what else to say.
Rather than shoot down things, why don't you say how much time you're willing to put into it and how much money? and what resources you have?
Nothing. On the other hand, wearing 3 shirts for more than 3 days makes people not want to come near you due to the stench.
Ok. I'm unemployed, I have to spend my days helping my daughter with online schoolwork and I did buy new clothing this year because I've lost 60 pounds due to a still yet-to-be diagnosed illness where I haven't eaten any solid food since August and dropping down that many sizes is not fixable by just altering pants. Let alone underwear.
Any more personal info you'd like? My telephone number? My bank balance?
No need to get snarky, you opened this convo by asking what you should wear and then just started lashing out. I am not responsible for your situation or the ludicrous injustice in the world, I am just trying to help.
I'm sorry you're in a tough sitch, if you're truly willing and able to do nothing then I have no idea why you asked. All I really say is wear second hand or get comfortable being a slaver, that's the choice we get atm.
I never said you were. You asked, so I told you.
