Monday, 10/26:
Razor - Raw Shaving RS-10, aggressive
Blade - Astra SP
Brush - Morris & Forndran Heritage II L7 28mm blonde badger
Soap - Dr. Jon's Runaway
A/S - Brickell unscented
I'm looking to break in this M&F, so it was today's choice again. I know it probably can break in further, but it feels and looks so different from my other blonde, and feels/looks similar to my M&F finest. I personally believe it's actually finest hair based on these things, but I guess what do I know. The scrub to it isn't rough by any means, but it's certainly more than I expected, and frankly is a little disappointing. It lathers up a ton, though, and generated a pretty nice lather from the soap. The scent here has some similarities to 13, which is alright in my book since that's one of my favorite scents ever. The lather was really slick, and combined with the tight clamping of the blade, made for a crazy smooth shave despite the increased blade feel with the aggressive plate. Boy is this shave close! Feeling good.

Tut, tut; it looks like rain...
The somber gray, and the sound of rain, against the windows suited my melancholy. Several days down the oubliette of chronic mental illness had left me in pronounced disrepair. With some judicious hoarding, I found the spoons to shower and shave. I was in no mood for conversation, so I passed on my usual podcast (The History of Philosophy), and put on The Nationals Sleep Well Beast.
It was my first go with the Simpson's brush, as well as the Nacet blade, so I stuck with the rest of my normal routine. The brush was a wonderful improvement over the little Satin Tip I've been using. It loaded and lathered beautifully, and held heat well. I've found this soap a little finicky, as I've been learning, but this brush seemed to have its own finesse.
I found the Nacet a little "toothy," much the same as my experience with Personnas. I definitely owe it another couple of shaves, especially when I'm in a better state, before I reach a final decision.
Overall, it was a pleasant shave. Both the process and the end helped. It didn't make everything right, but it made it a little less wrong.
