I hope that people from the US have finished their shopping in Europe: Postal services in many European countries have stopped commercial deliveries towards the US, because of the tariffs. Some private companies will continue to operate.

I have been sloppy with shaving recently – one shave I didn’t log two days ago, the same as today. Two days ago, the shave was a breeze; today, it was a bloodbath. I don’t know why.
Anyways, have a good evening!

I don’t see the two posts that I know that are here from Jerboa. Any idea why, and is this the same for other people?

Yesterday I was too tired to shave, after an excursion into Pitralonistan. We went to see the Rheinfälle in Schaffhausen, which was quite impressive (think Niagara falls, but in Switzerland). The place has potential, but I couldn’t help noticing how poor the branding is. In German, Rheinfälle is homophonous with failures. How difficult could it be to rename the whole thing to something more appealing - something like Rhizzfalls or the like? Or maybe just slap some Trump branding on it, in exchange to get rid of the extreme tarrifs? Anyways, that’s enough advice for Tourism Switzerland for today.
Have a good evening!!

I found the soap finicky to lather, but I still very much like their Indian Flavour scent. I don’t know whether I would buy it again, though.

You’re not afraid of the blade not being completely dry without stropping?

The Day after the Nones of August
- Brush: Yaqi Rock
- Lather: TGS Ambre Fougère

- Blade: Astra Green (old+3)
Still no clear sign of frag burn - has my skin become too old for it? Has the soap spent enough time open and lost enough scent? Who knows!
Have a good night!

The Nones of August (where nothing ever happens)
- Brush: Yaqi Rock
- Lather: TGS Ambre Fougère

- Blade: Astra Green (old)
A decent shave. I dropped the blade into the sink at the beginning, but consequences are not the same with an Astra blade or with a River Razor kamisori. I guess I could throw it away if it’s warped.
And it turns out that using a very soft brush and bowl lathering keeps the frag burn in check. Obvious in hindsight, but I wouldn’t have thunk before. I added too much water to the soap though - which killed the slickness.
Have a good night!

You are probably excited to hear me bitch about Ambre Fougère. But, to be honest, no fragburn as of yet. It will come soon enough. And the blade is old and tuggy, and deserves to be retired with fellow scrap metal. Also, formatting is shitty because I didn’t bring my computer.
But why, Porkbutts, can’t you just take another blade, and a decent soap from your den? See, you heathens, because August is when we remember original sin, and it is dedicated to pure, gratuitous suffering. ~Unless, of course, the suffering brings us a shortening of our stay in the limbes. ~
Have a good sight!

If everything goes according to plan, tomorrow’s shave will be in a yurt surrounded by mountains, horses, cows, and sheep.
Please tell us whether stropping is better ona live cow or a live horse

It may be difficult to pronounce, but it is easy to lather!
