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.

Good luck. My brother made a huge sea chanty playlist on Spotify of you need motivation.

I've been doing allot of blue grass/new grass recently. Even bought a mandolin a few months back. Sea shanties aren't too far off haha. Been learning allot of fiddle tunes and Irish stuff on the mandolin.

Do share! DM me if you don't want to share here please.

I can't find it! I can't remember his profile. But I'll ask him!

[–] SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

That's not bad.

Did you find any unwelcome critters?

[–] PancakeBrock@lemmy.zip 4 points 3 weeks ago

Haven't found any but we definitely have some mice.

[–] MrVilliam@lemm.ee 2 points 3 weeks ago

Blast some tunes while you work and it'll go by faster and more pleasantly! It's gonna feel great to have that done in the end.

[–] Onomatopoeia@lemmy.cafe 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

You got this.

Don't be afraid to pull everything out so you can set things up right, like with shelves.

And commit to never leaving anything in the aisle.

[–] casey@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

Yes! Pull it all out first. Put it back to reorganize.

This is the way.

[–] junderwood@lemmy.world 2 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Wow, a whole week! That's gonna feel great to just take your time and do it right.

[–] PancakeBrock@lemmy.zip 2 points 3 weeks ago

Took the week off just because I have a ton of PTO saved up because I never miss work haha. Decided I just didn't feel like going this week. Then decided might as well work around the house since I'm not working.

I don't think I know how to relax.

Luckily previous owner left a cheap DVD/surround system hooked up in here with an aux cord haha.

[–] GooberEar@lemmy.wtf 1 points 2 weeks ago

Staycations where I Get Shit Done™ are my favorites.

[–] casey@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago

As much as a PITA as this can be you'll feel so much better once it's done. I do this until I am totally exhausted about once every year. I never look forward to it but the purge and final results are so cathartic.

There's two bags of earth on the left hand side. What's your plan with those?

[–] PancakeBrock@lemmy.zip 3 points 3 weeks ago

If your talking about the diatomaceous earth I use that in the goat barn to help with any bugs in the winter time. Since they all spend more time inside in the winter.

🫡 thank you!

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 1 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

Your shed is easily the size of my entire flat.

[–] PancakeBrock@lemmy.zip 1 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

I also have 7 acres, 1 donkey, and too many goats.

[–] feedum_sneedson@lemmy.world 1 points 1 week ago

Hopefully you appreciate it.
