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

oh, you may have just revolutionized morning shaves for me.....

- 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.

- Brush: Moar Boar!!!
- Razor: Weck Sextoblade
- Blade: Kismet
- Lather: Noble Otter - The Noir et Vanille
- Post Shave: Noble Otter - The Noir et Vanille Splash
- Post Shave: Noble Otter - The Noir et Vanille Balm
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 aim to please....
I'll take a stab at writing something simple tonight in golang and report my progress back.

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.
