An unofficial chapter of the popular Dull Men's Club.

https://dullmensclub.com/

1. Relevant commentary on your own dull life. Posts should be about your own dull, lived experience. This is our most important rule. Direct questions, random thoughts, comment baiting, advice seeking, many uses of "discuss" rarely comply with this rule.

2. Original, Fresh, Meaningful Content.

3. Avoid repetitive topics.

4. This is not a search engine
Use a search engine, a tradesperson, Reddit, friends, a specialist Facebook group, apps, Wikipedia, an AI chat, a reverse image search etc. to answer simple questions or identify objects. Also see rule 1, “comment baiting”.

There are a number of content specific communities with subject matter experts who can help you.

Some other communities to consider before posting:

5. Keep it dull. If it puts us to sleep, it’s on the right track. Examples of likely not dull: jokes, gross stuff (including toes), politics, religion, royalty, illness or injury, killing things for fun, or promotional content. Feel free to post these elsewhere.

6. No hate speech, sexism, or bullying No sexism, hate speech, degrading or excessively foul language, or other harmful language. No othering or dehumanizing of anyone or negativity towards any gender identity.

7. Proofread before posting. Use good grammar and punctuation. Avoid useless phrases. Some examples: - starting a post with "So" - starting a post with pointless phrases, like "I hope this is allowed" or “this is my first post” Only share good quality, cropped images. Do not share screenshots of images; share the original image.

Lots of this had rotten out so replaced that with some pallets.

About 50 of the olive trees were pruned, and this is that. Blade snapped on the bandsaw else it'd be brimming.

Still enough for a couple of winters though.

Eh, I don't think there can be stacked firewood without mice nests. Sometimes I almost feel bad when I go and get a crate and I tear down what looks like elaborate living room arrangements, nutshell leftovers, floor from moss and all.

I had a hollow dead tree I took down, a small one, this winter, and getting it back to the house a mouse crawled out of it all groggy from the fall. Probably died they don't do well relocating in the winter I hear. I stopped taking any old dead wood that the woodpeckers could use though, I've the big pileated woodpeckers then smaller ones.

Interestingly something killed all my squirrels last year, 2 dozen maybe from them stealing years of my bird seed, all seemingly raptured, except for what might have been a dismembered corpse I found.
