2 passes + touch-up before bed tonight. Always preferable to getting up early Monday morning for my shave.
Thanks!

2nd shave with my new brush. Holy crap, this thing is great! Builds a rich, creamy lather in just seconds, and puts it on so smooth and soft. Highly recommended.
A 1930’s Remington mechanical typewriter. My dad used it regularly until he passed away, it still works perfectly and I’ve got a whole box of ribbons for it.
I agree, the universe definitely came first.
The truth is that using a backlit screen before bed will affect everyone differently. Try both and see which works better for you.
Almost $600? No thanks, I’ll keep making my penis waffles the old-fashioned way.
Couldn’t agree more, that tune is cringe-inducing. A perfect example of the rule that your kids are always cuter to you than to anyone else.
To me, “Parade” on that album is also a turkey.
Yes. I’m in my mid 40’s, in the Midwest US. I drove manuals almost exclusively from when I was a teen until last year, when I bought an EV.

Even if the power load on the grid was doable, heat dissipation is also a huge problem. Current DC fast chargers max out at 350 kW (in theory, my car supports charging at that rate but the best I’ve seen in real life is around 190kW), and the liquid-cooled cables are already heavy/bulky enough to give some women and older folks a hard time. I can’t imagine a practical way to handle 2 or 3 times the current without making the cables something like 6 inches in diameter and weighing a couple hundred pounds.
But Tuesday’s just as bad…
Lot of good ones already here. I’ll add this only because I just finished playing this disc:
I’ve been sober since February 2018, after my dad passed away. My drinking had been increasing since my marriage ended a couple years before that, and I knew it was starting to get out of hand, but it took my dad’s death to give me the motivation I needed to stop. He was a lifelong drinker, and I realized that’s just not what I want for myself. Good luck to you on your journey, OP.
No doubt, that’s a great track too
Awesome, this takes me back in a great way. My parents had an old hi-fi phono in a beautiful wood cabinet, and they had some Esquivel records just for the purpose of showing off the stereo sound. Thanks for this!

I wouldn’t say notably better than K2, but I think it feels slightly more moisturizing, with a bit better post-shave feel.
