I'm trying to post the Great Spice Off to the WetShaving subLemmy (I think I worded that right). I upload an image, plenty of text in markdown, title, and then click publish but it just spins and spins and spins. Maybe try without the image upload?

OK, more a Lemmy question/complaint than a shaving one. I'm trying to make a post but all it's doing is spinning. Tried three times now and just spin. Any suggestions?

I know. I know. I bought it well before I knew their issues and don't buy from them anymore, but every so often I bust the brush out.

Been intrigued (mostly thanks to their cool branding) by Gentleman's Nod for a while. At some point I'll have to sus out a sample or just buy a puck... or maybe they'll make an Old Spice dupe...

June 16, 2023 – The Great Spice Off – Mystic Water Windjammer 2

• Brush: PAA Synthetic
• Razor: Gillette Slim Adjustable
• Blade: Personna Platinum Chrome (1)
• Preshave: Baxter Shave Tonic
• Lather: Mystic Water – Windjammer
• Post Shave: Old Spice -1980s

Windjammer lathered up something fantastic today and went on my face so soft and then… nothing. I I think I needed more water or something because the slickness wasn’t there at all. My first shave I wouldn’t say it was standout but it was there, but maybe that was the milder, smoother razor I was using. Going to do a ton of water for the thrid shave with a really aggressive razor or else I think I’ll be a bloody mess.

I hadn’t used the Slim Adjustable in a while and every time I take it out I remember that Gillette kind of nailed it all those years ago. I’d like a little more weight on it but it’s just a great, easy shaver that can go to whatever level you’re feeling.

I have never used them but the name sounds like some kind of some made up mascot for the Nationa Geographic Kids magazine that I used to get as a kid.
