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

No, it is not. They'll get used to it, and they'll statistically have considerably better health outcomes. Moreover, being blunt, it isn't your prerogative to send out your little monster to terrorize and slaughter local wildlife as their plaything because you think they'll be bored or cranky.
Even granting based on nothing that this won't ever change, that's your responsibility to deal with as a pet owner. You created the problem; you can deal with the consequences without making it everybody else's problem. If my aggressive dog is upset he can't go chase my neighbor's dog around their yard, the answer isn't "fuck it, just let him out; I can't deal with his complaining, and frankly it's pretty cruel to keep him cooped up when he's like this."
