what are some cool facial hair styles, care tags ? i've always rocked a miniature stubble (cool and aloof) but the depp dior sauvage ads i see at the bus shelters got me growing out the goatee and i think it looks pretty slick, but now i've noticed that every other early twenties dude (particularly the tracksuit football euro boys) are also rockin it so now i'm unsure. any forward-thinking facial hair ideas ?

I don't have actual facial hair recommendations (genes stay boxing me out of that game) but I will say mustaches and salomon xt-6s and xt-wings2 are all in late metropolitan actualization, where they're things that you really do see around, and people like having, but you won't see discussed as something that's cool (or hot?). (indie rock has been in this space for about 12 years)

went ahead and added some shrunken down images of donald duck to the options I recommend from a chart of facial hair styles

also not in the chart but you don't see a lot of people rocking the scott ian even though there's a lot of potential there

again not speaking from experience but I believe this is a kisser's beard (doesn't get in the way while kissing)

They have a pretty strong read on me, I was wondering the other day exactly how concretely the algo knows I'm gonna click anything patchworky, or if my memory is self-selecting by only storing the times that I'm showed something patchworky. I clicked a banana republic ad the other day because they have made a patchwork jacket.

Are they in my head? Is patchwork just what's in?

I definitely juke the instagram ads if there's something i want to buy, just to see what they'll show me. It's 99% shit but I have bought protein!

Why is it true that your shoes being lighter than your pants makes you look taller? kinda wish it was less true
