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.

I do ours before Thanksgiving every year, little glass jars with shiny metal shaker tops. Yeah, they have to be super dry before refilling.
To my horror I looked again and it's covered in salt crystals again, so I guess it was not dry enough
When I do mine, rather than soaking them until the salt dissolves, I'll put a bunch of elbow grease in with a damp paper towel. It's less washing and more polishing. Perhaps the limited moisture from the paper towel helps? The dry part of the paper towel helps remove moisture as I clean it?
SAY MOISTURE ONE MORE TIME.
The lid has plastic parts for a spout and you can't get into where the plastic and metal join or the hinge of the spout, that's where the salt send to have set up base.
Ah … I think new shakers are in order then.
Poke toothpicks into the holes, that'll dislodge the crystals.
