  • I use a Merkur safety razor, but most often I use a commercial shaving cream like Gillette as I don’t have the time it takes to break out my brush etc.

    I look at it as I get the benefit of cheap, close shaves, without the longer process of using my brush to lather up. Maybe if I had a nice badger brush I’d feel differently.

    As for the blades - Astra are a good general purpose blade I like. Feathers, as someone else mentioned, are wicked sharp, and require extra care.

    Moving from cartridge expect to take some time to get the technique down. You can’t go as fast.

    Enjoy!


  • I am not apologizing for the horrific abuses the church caused and covered up.

    I was raised Catholic but no longer attend. Largely in part to these horrible abuses that were covered up. I lost faith in the institution.

    Perhaps our difference is in what we view as “the church”. I see it as more than the institution and the terrible leaders it has had and still does. The many people who attend and follow that faith also constitute what many would define as the church.

    By your comment you are clearly an atheist which is fine. But you are wrong when you say the church, i.e. all the people that follow that faith, exist to harm children. That is offensive.
