I would say not caring what strangers think of you is an enormous improvement.

Eh, i kinda miss it. Of course its carefree living, but it also is a symptom of our individual detachment from society at large. We don't relate to the people around us, we handpick those connections digitally for the most part, where shit is just as shallow as it supposedly was in reality before that.

Sure, you dont care what you look like in the street. But if you have mainstream social media as well i would bet you have made an effort for your profiles that other people can see. Good looking pics, possibly edited too, relatable posts and personal information.

We just shifted most of our presentation online.

Or we realized wearing a 3 piece suit when it's 98°F outside with 95% humidity is fucking stupid.

There's a difference between not caring about what strangers think about you and showing a little respect for everyone you're going to encounter when you're out in the world

It's not about airs and graces, but that little bit of effort is indicative of how people behave when interacting with others generally

At a minimum, I don't want deal with people who haven't worn clean clothes or washed themselves (and I do volunteer work washing homeless people's clothes for them, so that they can at least enjoy the feel of warm, clean and dry clothes)

It's not snobbish to expect people to put some effort into the interactions they're going to have during the course of their day
