Oh this is great. I can’t wait to see how it turns out. I truly hope there are some confused idiots when it switches over, although they’ll probably believe everything and not recognize that it’s satire.

they believe he may now be in Eastern Europe.

Has anyone checked if he’s on lemmy.ml?

RE: BS products from massive corporations, I’m with you for sure.

RE: soap is soap - there are lots of different types of soap. Each type of fat has differing amounts of loric acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid, etc. Lard makes a soap that’s a good firmness (not too soft, not too hard), not very cleansing (so it won’t dry your skin out, but also won’t do much hard cleaning), very conditioning, not very bubbly, but very creamy. Other fats/oils yield much different results. Soaps with a lot of coconut oil are very cleansing, so they’ll dry your skin out. Your soap sounds like it could be used daily without any problems.

So, I disagree that soap is soap. Soap that’s made specifically for shaving typically has a lot of added stearic acid, because no natural fats have enough natural stearic acid to produce a really stable lather that won’t dissipate during the shave. Most use a lot of beef tallow, but there are also a lot of vegan options.

If it’s the best soap you’ve ever used, that would negate the claim that soap is soap. I’m happy you’ve found something you like.

There are always people in all hobbies that think it’s their way or the highway (no offense, but your comments have that tone to them).

I try to avoid that and just share what I enjoy.

One of the biggest things I hear is “cartridges cause irritation and DE razors don’t!”. That is 100% false and I disagree with it. Still, I love using DE razors and would recommend them to anyone interested in “enjoying” shaving.

Sounds like you have it all figured out for yourself.

I use artisan shave soap because they work extremely well and smell awesome. Commercial soap also works well, but there isn’t as much variety in the smell department. I have a handful of brushes and I use whichever one I feel like on a given day. They all offer something unique.

I use aftershave for the same reason you mentioned. Aloe sounds like it’d be sticky and unpleasant for my skin type.

What kind of problems did you experience? Do you remember what kind of razor you tried?

In the enthusiast community, Leaf is commonly used by head shavers, but Double Edge, Single Edge, Straight Edge, etc. are all much much more common for face shavers. There’s far more variety which makes it “fun”.

I agree. Some people even get so caught up in Wetshaving that they run a Lemmy instance dedicated to it.

“She described working for DeSantis as the “biggest mistake” of her entire career.[14]”

…I wonder how long until she updates that statement.

That isn’t an indicator of current inflation. Past inflation, maybe.

People confuse “everything is expensive” with “inflation is currently high”. It’s an understandable misunderstanding, and part of the reason why Kamala lost.

Yelp can’t be trusted, anyway. Businesses can pay to remove bad reviews.

Google Maps has plenty of user submitted photos.

The news isn’t known for getting details correct. I guess it could have been a tiki torch, or an Olympic torch, though.

I’ve known 95 year olds who are very active in whatever they hold dear to their hearts.

Can I shop at HD again, or are the people in charge still assholes?

It depends. Blow torches are odorless unless the canister is leaking. Flare guns don’t smell like anything unless they’ve been recently discharged, and even then it’s probably not a strong odor.

Lets hope so.

Is there any supporting documentation for the name change? Sort of like how people can show a marriage certificate after they get married if their last name changed?

Judging by your first sentence, I think your goal is to put people down for voting for a candidate you don’t like. Justify it however you want, I’m just tired of seeing people hyper focused on one foreign policy issue that, once resolved, will be forgotten about until that region is destabilized again.

Broaden your horizons, think freely, and don’t vote for a President who isn’t worthy of the office.

You’re*

I did find your comment describing how to view depending on which type of state you live in. None of the 3rd party candidates appeal to me, though.

Jill Stein is a Putin Puppet, and the libertarian party has said they want Trump in office because he has mentioned putting a libertarian in a cabinet position. Ignoring all of the warnings signs just so they can have 5 minutes of fame is shallow to me.

Harris is overall the best candidate to me. Her views have the most overlap with mine.

I just got banned from [email protected] for 2 months because I said I wasn’t comfortable installing an Android app with a Russian developer. The audacity!
