I have a similar rag + rare paper towel thing going. I do two bins, one for "table cloths", one for "cleaning cloths". I don't fold, just toss them all in. Huge time saver! The table ones even have a cute basket now
We use mostly square towel washcloths and while I do fold them sometimes, they don't actually need it if there's a basket to keep them reasonably contained.
We switched from paper towels to using dish towels much more liberally, with the already-raggedy reserved for the worst jobs, and the nicer ones being accorded more dignity (something something English society). It sounds like we get through fewer than you, though, probably because we still use paper towels for certain very gruesome jobs
I keep microfiber towels in one of those knit reusable produce bags hanging on a knob so I take as needed—they don’t need to be folded in this case but my husband does laundry so they get folded anyway lol
I dunno - I figured there was an issue ("medical procedure") and filed it and forgot it. I mean, she's a pretty princess, but wheeee I don't care. The hand picture was like, "wow, that was fucked up" but also 🙅. The whole with Diana convinced me that yes, the Windsors are annoying/shitty rich people, but also they are people and the British tabloids are run by the scum of the earth so I should just ignore them all. People also watch wrestling and reality TV, so it could be worse. Or better.
Glad you found a credenza - kitchen complete!

whatever rags/hand towels/paper towels come to hand
I use both paper towels & washable microfiber (not sure if it's the same as bar mops). Like you said here, the point is to avoid the washing routine, hence why old shirts, practical they are, aren't quite sustainable rags, while paper towels do save time & energy.
I don’t think the people who got drawn into the “mystery’ of where Kate Middleton should be letting themselves off. The best they can say is that the internet makes it very easy to join a crowd and be a prurient asshole, like the #bekind version of the medieval town stocks.

Credenza is a funny word! George on Seinfeld could have been George Credenza.

Probably more energy is consumed washing (and folding) the bar mops than in the creation and use of paper towels. Don't feel guilty!

Congrats for the credenza.
