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.

oh wow, that sounds unpleasant!
It is. Its caused me a great deal of stress over the last 2 years but I've found the best solution is to realize its out of my control and just be a good man for my partner and a good father for my daughter. No point losing sleep over things out of my control. Easier said than done sometimes
Some time in the distant future, you will have far less sorting and disposing of things you do not want or need. You will merely need to call a truck to haul the containers away and have it all auctioned off.
Source: I have settled 2 estates. My parents and a great aunt. It's a miserable job going through a lifetime's collection of "stuff".
Yeah
This sounds real savage but I've given up on the idea they will fix this themselves so I'm resigned to the fact it'll me us that has to do it once they are gone.
I actually thought you work in a container ship or something. This is insane. Who even needs three containers full of stuff? They are absolutrly destroying their property for just some more storage space.
Correct
I admire your priorities, although you may want to consider that your daughter is learning that this is normal and okay, which it is not. 😬
I completely agree. At this point in time my take home pay isn't enough for us to move out. Once my daughter is at school and my partner gets a job we'll move out
My friend have you met existential dread?
Yep
The house is full of shit too. I've just had to let it go to some degree. The first year living here was a real challenging adjustment
