This is the third time I've done a two pass shave with the Weck, and have avoided bleeding. I'll take that as a win.

Super happy to have the GC back. While Blades Grim as a company is questionable I still love the way this soap smells. It's like toasted marshmallows, and it makes a good lather. This was an amazing shave. 10 of 10 would highly recommend.

  • Prep: Splash of hot water
  • Brush: Moar Boar!
  • Razor: Weck Sextoblade
  • Blade: Kismet
  • Lather: ZM The Watchman (sample from J33p)
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger Splash
  • Post Shave: Proraso Sensitive Balm

In all this was a pretty good shave. I spent a bunch more soap, and time making lather than in previous shaves and ended up with a much thicker lather. I'm also getting better with the Weck, as this is the second time I've done both a North to South, and South to North shave with it, and remained nick free.

nice. My initial attempts to interact with the Lemmy instance with golang wasn't super successful.

  • Prep: Splashing hot water
  • Brush: SHD badger
  • Razor: Stirling (DE3P2S) with the OpenComb plate
  • Blade: Gillette Nacet
  • Lather: Proraso Sensitive shaving cream (tube)
  • Post Shave: Lucky Tiger

What can I say, this was a simple evening (00:10 am) shave. The Stirling has more blade feel than any other safety razor I own, but I wouldn't call it extreme. It's my travel razor, and since I'm going to be traveling next week I thought I'd take it for a spin and make sure I'm all good.

If I'm honest I completely screwed the pooch with the lather on this shave. I loaded a ton of soap into the Moar Boar, and then put too much water into it completely ruining the nice thick lather that was forming.

I powered through anyway, and managed to shave with the weck, while keeping all the blood on the inside, so I'll call it a win anyway.

I'll take a stab at writing something simple tonight in golang and report my progress back.

It looks like there are several libraries available to interact with the Lemmy API.

Do we have access to the bots used for moderation on Discord? Which Languages are they written in?

Do y'all want help porting them to Lemmy?
