Maintain The Beard?

We've had a number of beard votes now, and while we started this facial hair experiment before the time of corona, I think the beard fits with the wild hair of a stay-at-home computer loving publicly traded person. Also, it has grown in rather nicely! I'm still tentative when I groom it with my new electric shears, but I'm gaining confidence.

So this is a proposal to keep the beard, and while we can still have votes on appearance and facial hair it's a shift from a default position of clean shaven to one of bearded. I highly encourage a yes vote. I like the beard, Kathryn likes the beard, and later this year I hope to pitch a TV show about growing up in Alaska and I feel like the beard will help with that.

    I would like to again make a proposal to improve the shareholder voting method, changing it away from plurality voting (so we can vote for multiple proposals). I would gladly work up a presentation for the shareholders, but in the meantime I recommend checking out either https://www.equal.vote/ or https://www.electionscience.org for information an alternate voting methods.

    Maintenance is not very ambitious. The beard should be much larger.

    Shaving is cool, I did it this week and it felt great. Voting to shave.

    It's looking a bit wild. I'm pro.

    Making another person shave is a crime against humanity.

    Looking great, but I think could use some clean up to keep it one length.

Wow, it's August now and I still have a beard. I'm getting pretty used to it.
