if i have old clothes i want to get rid of, and they aren't high quality and in good condition where someone might actually want them, i just put them in the trash. i don't worry about recycling them 🤷♀️ i'm not going to take them to the thrift store where they will be thrown away by the employees, shipped overseas to go into a giant pile of unwanted clothes, or hang in the store and never be purchased. idc if i should find a way to recycle it. i just want rid of it.

this page has recycling options but i'm not going to bother. also i question statistics like this:
82lbs
the average amount of textiles that end up in landfills per person, per year
i don't believe that the average person throws away 82 pounds of textiles in the trash every year. there is no way. this has to be including, like, getting rid of old carpets and random shit like that. not the average amount of clothes people throw out yearly. so it's kind of misleading.
