The topic of this discussion is: anything.
Anything exciting going on in your life? Things got you down? Did you try a new recipe that you’d like to share? etc.
My big Zenith/Stirling brush is breaking in super well. I still might prefer the Omega 10048 as a boar brush, but I’m glad to have this in my rotation.
In other brush-related news, I ordered a TurnNShave Quartermoon synthetic knot the first week of December to set in a handle I purchased from u/Priusaurus over on Reddit.
For whatever reason Milton (TnS owner) didn’t get a notification about my order for over a week and a half, so he was late shipping it out.
He generously gave me an additional knot (tuxedo) for free to make up for the inconvenience, so I had to/got to source another handle this week. Really looking forward to setting these knots, it’s something I’ve not yet done. I’m also very excited to use these handles. They’re so sparkly.

Tired as f**k lately and the early shifts I had didn’t help. Of course I myself am to blame for this, since I go to bed way too late. I should look into ways to fix this, as it is quite frustrating.
Picked up a few orders this week, from shaving hardware to cosmetics to household items (new bedsheets are said to help with sleep). However, I can’t shake the feeling that I am impulse buying stuff to fill a void inside me - unlike other ADHDers who have trouble with finances and budgeting, this fortunately doesn’t impact me as much. But it’s safe to say that I spend too much money on useless stuff just to feel better, which never lasts long. I’m glad about the shaving related stuff though, it seems like wetshaving is the only hobby I can consistently keep up with even in stressful times.
I’m thinking about a few changes to make for 2025. New Year’s resolutions were never that successful for me, but slow & steady improvements should do the trick. We’ll see…
