-> 1 pass WTG + clean-up on the head. A nice shave, but a few bloody dots - haven’t used the MMOC in quite a while.

And it wasn’t very clean either. In fact, I had to go with a cartridge over a spot I missed at the back of my head (where GEM razors are tricky to use perfectly). Yet still, I took my time for a nice shave again that I could post. Last Thursday I only used my cartridge and brushless cream under the shower, which IMHO wasn’t worth writing about.

Rambler is a very sweet scent, but it’s the first ZM soap I ever bought so it’s kinda special to me. I still suck at lathering ZM sometimes, but the soap rewards me with nice glide and a great post shave feeling.

Currently I sit at home this week to prepare for my practical and oral exams. Haven’t done much for it yet tbh, but I plan to change that tomorrow. I wanted to get back into gaming a bit, but I often feel frustrated by the modern game market. For example, Indiana Jones and the Great Circle would be something totally up my alley - yet the disk version contains a meager 300 KB and ~157 GB of the game are downloaded over the MS store. I mean, why even bother with a physical version then? It’s just window dressing in that case.
