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.

One thing I haven't seen mentioned is safe disposal. You'll need to pick up a razor blade slot for the house (landlord probably wouldn't be happy): https://maggardrazors.com/products/maggard-razors-blade-bank-used-blades-lifetime-wall-slot
Or you can get a sharps bucket, which are cheap enough and incredibly easy to make
Small mason jar, cut up a plastic lid, cut a slot in it.
I bought a 100 pack and every 5 come in a separate little box. I rewrap the used blade in the new one's paper and slide them back into one of the boxes.
There should be a slot on the back to slide old blades into
Every 10 pack of razors I've bought has a little slot in the back for old razors. I'd that not a common thing?
Or an altoids tin, or similar
Just need a large steel can that broth or juice come in. Use some type of blade or chisel to punch out a slot.
Save broth or juice in another container.
Clean out can. Even a small soup can size can hold a lot of blades.
My uncle's house had one of these.
I'm like how do you clean the blades out?
And he said you don't, they just pile up in the wall.
Just seems like an unsanitary way to dump old blades to fester, LOL
How does metal fester?
So in my uncles case the house was already 100 years old. Imagine the dead skin cells being dumped into the wall with the razor, possible still wet. So you have a wall growing bacteria and mold off of skin residue and dampness. Just nasty disposal method.
Put them in an altoids tin, when its full bring it to the metal recycle place for melting.
A pill bottle works just as well, as long as the top is wide enough.
