This technically makes you more true to Core Rationalist Principles than anyone else who has answered this ask! Very good1! You win a square watermelon for this take.

1Where “Good” is defined as “within the framework of Yudkowskyan principles” and not as The Good, or other Goods as defined by competing ideological frameworks. Offer not valid in Alaska or Hawaii. Void where prohibited.
is it too much to ask for someone with ideas opposing mine who isn’t horrifically self-righteous or functionally retarded
like I want to expand my horizons but the pool of “cool people with ideas that challenge my worldview” at this point amounts to Michael Tracey and god bless the guy but he’s certainly no intellectual
I’m guessing I don’t count as sufficiently opposed.

You know, I got that on [other platform], too. In fact, someone once approached my girlfriend at the time because they were too cripplingly socially anxious to approach me.
…and also my other ex described my dating profile as a bit that way, once…

But if you aren’t attractive enough, then people won’t want to approach you.
Ah, the horseshoe theory of attractiveness.

Sometimes I’ll… hmn, how to describe, use certain twists of language or hints in order to come off one way or the other.
Someone once asked, on a post, “wait, is that a period joke?” Yes, yes it was. It was also several other jokes simultaneously. But that has a certain weight to it in peoples’ gender reading intuitions.
Anyhow,
Avatars have a powerful effect on how we read people online, and lead to us making various subconscious assumptions. Don’t worry though, I didn’t choose my avatar as a ‘gotcha’ to trip people up with.
In an environment where gender presentation is much more of a choice than it is elsewhere, it also becomes part of communication and describing one’s intent to others, just as @wirehead-wannabe‘s rat avatar gives off a certain vibe about him, and @argumate‘s rotated pyramid is as frustratingly neutral as his posts.
So the avatar, too, is part of the message of this blog, an indicator of tone and so on, in addition to visual branding to make it recognizable and differentiate it from other blogs.
I will say that the grey is a deliberate choice as no real races are grey. Yet.
