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.

I feel like my wood-stacking game would fall short in this comm. Gonna have to up my efforts.
Good stacking.
Really loving the stacking posts in these threads lately.
Is everyone in your family tall enough to get the top pieces? Otherwise, I see a game of Jenga happening. It looks great though.
just looking at this gave me a blister.
You're using the wood wrong.
Wait, blister where? From what?
this is a gorgeous stack, but its height makes my safety inspector sense tingle. can i offer you an orange flag in this trying time?
Nice work, Steve
You have oak in the subtropics? This looks sub tropic from the pic anyway with the plants, could be temperate rainforest I suppose.
Southern Live Oak
Bonus points for the pallet
Random tip that may be useful to some. Garden centres get a lot of pallets with a light wooden frame cage where they ship ferns, small trees and whatever . Often they actually want someone take them off their hands as they're unfit for regular cargo, and if you drop one on the side on a regular pallet you get a modularly extendable stack with great airflow and possibility for easy cover if needed.
Symmetrical log stacking. Just like the Philadelphia mass turbulence of 1947.
Ok.....now let's play Jenga!
