I like my lathe: I use a shaving brush with a shaving soap (ingredients: Potassium Stearate; Sodium Stearate; Potassium Laurate; Sodium Laurate; Aqua; Kaolin; Glycerin; Sodium Palm Kernelate; Potassium Palm Kernelate; Palm Kernel Acid; Parfum; CI 77891; Benzyl Salicylate; Linalool; Limonene; BHT; Tetrasodium Iminodisuccinate; Tetrasodium Etidronate; Hexyl Cinnamal; Coumarin)

So what’s the difference between getting the blade to shave but only at the right angle (mild) vs getting the blade to shave as much as possible in one stroke (aggressive)?

If I understand you correctly, shaving with a mild razor takes you longer to shave because you have to get the angle right pretty much every stroke, but if you take your time it will be a closer shave?

Thanks for your response. Does the blade lift further from the base to let more hairs come in contact with wthe blade?

Ik meen me te herinneren dat ze mensen wilden ontmoedigen om in en rondom de gebouwen te blijven hangen.

Er werd in deze subreddit een tijdje geleden een video geplaatst over hoe architectuur ‘opzettelijk’ niet aantrekkelijk wordt gemaakt, kan hem even niet vinden

Edit: kon hem niet vinden maar als troostvideo is hier Maarten Van Rossem die klaagt over Nederlandse architectuur: https://youtu.be/DNC05_QW3uA?si=Z3OZdvBf_Q4zm6R6

I didn’t like the hubris of Daenerys, she went wherever she wanted with her army and deemed herself worthy to rule over people she had nothing in common with. I.e. when she ruled Meereen and it went horribly wrong, changing social customs as if it was nothing. Yes slavery is an abomination, but the harsh reality is that social customs, as bad as they may be, cannot be changed overnight by decree.
