July 24, 2023 – Pass It On  

  • Brush: Dogwood Badger  
  • Razor: Ever Ready 1912  #BRASSING
  • Blade: GEM   
  • Lather: Zingari – The Gatherer  

Theme: everything is PIF’d. The bowl is my dad’s old shaving mug. The Ever Ready is from Environmental-Gap380. The brush is from Phteven_j. The Zingari is from the LatherGames Fairy.

A bit of amusement/backstory: Family legend is that I forced my dad to shave for several years because as a toddler/little kid I would absolutely melt down if he grew it too long. I do remember not liking if my goodnight kiss was scratchy. Mom worked nights so Dad did bedtime and I guess it just wasn’t worth the fight.

When I showed Dad the Ever Ready, because at this point I enjoy his absolute bewilderment over The Games, he commented that he learned to shave on one. He doesn't talk about his childhood so it was neat it get that little tidbit.

Challenge: u/ktturtlesue makes me laugh, she’s funnier than the esteemed Mr.Miasma. It’s my opinion that he wouldn’t stand a chance if she really went for the gold in these games and he’s lucky to have her support.

u/bloodcrab for being a fellow late-poster, he’s got solid write-ups.

As always, my annual thanks to the community for the general positive culture. As someone who spends nearly all their time in male dominated spaces, if we could capture the culture here and export it - the world would be a significantly better place.
