I use Molten Speed Wax. No, no issues with gumming up, in fact I get worried that it has come off too much but when you handle (and ride) the chain it is clear it is OK. I rewax every 300-400km depending on ride conditions, but last time I did it it was clear I’d done it too early.
As I said before it is time-consuming to set up in the first place, but for me the results are worth it, and I actually love the ‘faffing with bike parts’.
There is an Australian website where a chap has gone to town testing lubes and chains; the site is unfortunately poorly constructed and relies too much on PDFs, defo works better on desktop too, but there is some very interesting stuff on there if you have a little patience:

White Lightning?
I haven’t checked, but my first guess would be this is a ‘Dutch are tight-fisted’ English meme name, the implication being the pillow is cheaper than a wife.
No, in particular it was a pillow used by mariners in hot climates, apparently to absorb sweat.
There are a few examples of that idea hence my expectation. Of course this idea was fallacious; in the 1800s England was broke as fuck and the Dutch were highly successful international traders. But they couldn’t possibly be ‘better’ than the English (recognise that idea?) so they must be tight-fisted instead.
FTFY

SAME. Sun was out fill blast today, i don't even remember the last time that happened.
But alas, no clouds means it was freaking cold today.
Enjoying some beer now.
Just tried paying a speeding ticket online, but it says that I cannot do so for this one and to contact the justice department by phone. Dammit.
Speaking of which... we had sushi for the first time since last spring, two nights ago. Ordered from a place here in town, first we've tried since moving. It was soo good and they sent three extra miso soups and random salads.
Would have tipped more, if I knew what was in the bag...

For the first time ever I used soapy water and a strap. Worked like a charm. Truly impressed. Will definitely do that again.
Second Pfizer Covid vaccination received. They say more folks have a reaction to the second shot.
Nice!
That is a local brewery to me. Good stuff. Plus whats better than looking or asking around for some Juicy Ass?
I wanted that, but it was all sold out.
Actually kind of surprised you can get that, they are a big micro brewery, but aren't huge.
Sucks that we can't get some of you're stuff.
Well, thanks! Sipping one right now.Nice!

My other beer tonight is from a brewery a mile from my home.
Medfahhh?Well, thanks! Sipping one right now.
My fav beer is brewed by Idle Hands in Malden but the closest brewery is Lord Hobo in Woburn.
Please say Four Seam
@StiHacka if you're interested, @Adventurous and I are riding Millerica at 8am tomorrow. I know it's late notice, but this was agreed upon 27 seconds ago.
I got a 4pk of Four Seam for my BIL for Xmas and he left 1 of them at my in-laws house, which I happily drank when we were back a week or so later. Win. Also one of my fav beers, easily top 3.
Keep us posted re: ride. We'll be there... hoping the time and temps make for a quiet ride.

It is a regular in my fridge. I am lucky one of our packies have them in stock 24/7, always fresh.
We have a Craft Beer Cellar in Westford that has it in the cooler 9 times out of 10, and I was psyched about that. Awesome selection overall, too.
Boomsauce?Well, thanks! Sipping one right now.
Lord Hobo stuff found out in ColoRADo pretty easily?
Nah, that shit is gross. Glorious is tolerable.
Nah... had it fall 2019 at a small dive-ass metal bar called The Scürvy Dög in Providence. No windows, dimmed red lighting, they play weird old-school fantasy cartoons on the TVs. Awesome spot. Our bartender's name was Jolly, I think I still owe him a shotski.
Is it? I don't recall bad or good honestly. So, must not have been terrible to me at the time. I remember liking the name. I also remember that same dive bar was the first place I had Lawson's Sip o' Sunshine... and I like that stuff quite well. And you can get that out here in Colorado.
