I sure don’t envy you folks only having the choice between plague and cholera
After a while, cynicism gets to you and idealism becomes less important. The goal becomes how to fare well with whomever comes to power. I suspect, though, that one candidate may not know the quote “hell hath no fury like a woman scorned”. We’ll see.

A very nice second luxury shave. I’m headed out for dinner while everyone else here is watching the election results.

2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.
— I’m traveling, so only the soap will be changing for FLS and SLS during this trip. Thanks to u/VisceralWatch for the FBT. Love this little razor. It’s perfect for travel.
Great idea! As a daily shaver, I’m never going to do a traditional Atlas Shaves in Feb. I don’t have anything to add that others haven’t already. I like the idea of DQs. Certainly works for the (my) geezer generation. I’m not sure how generations that grew up receiving a prize even for losing will like it.
As DJ says, those with a well-stocked den will have an advantage, but it’s wetshaving and that’s part of the hobby.
Yeah, that brush handle is a keeper!

2 passes. Bowl lather. Excellent shave.
— Travel shave. Tis the season for Autumn Ash. It must be used. And, as we all know, Cerberus matches zero or more soap scents.
Oh, MMMMFF! I’ve got to do at least one of these this month. Shire+Valedictorian sounds interesting!
Oh yeah. I’ll be visiting Desert Vetiver this month. That’s a given :)
Heather is proud of her association with Rogue Perfumery on this one.
