My appearance is carefully refined to disappoint and frustrate people who expect me to care about my appearance. This optimizes for my time, and connection with people who are more interested in what I say and do. Oh, and low carbon footprint.
I have male pattern baldness, long hair (ends unceremoniously chopped once a month for easier brushing) and silly facial hair shaved once a week. Random t-shirts, thrift shop jeans, and technical outerwear, all worn until they start to disintegrate.

That being said, appearance is a disguise we choose -- wittingly or unwittingly -- and I think that's just fine.

- rfrey 2y ago> people who expect me to care about my appearance You seem to care about your appearance a lot, and also seem to be putting a lot of effort into cultivating a particular image. There used to be a lot of punk rockers in high school who "didn't care about fashion" but somehow all dressed exactly alike and had very similar haircuts.
