I've been catching up on djudging #GEMsOfWisdom and #RawHoggin submissions and it's really nice to follow along. I tried to compare it to my recollections from last year, and I got the impression that the MMOC is perceived as much less of an oddity this year than last time.

With exception of two early quits, it also seems that the vast majority of RawHoggineers are enjoying their boar brushes. It's nice to see the two challenges going so well.

My shave today was uneventful and predictable. The blade is still holding up at 90 uses and the brush is pure bliss. The monotony of getting to me a bit, andI'm eyeing my sample box for Sample September wistfully.
