On my phone the background of Lemmy (not the photo) is black. And what is clearly gold in the photos doesn't look anything like black.
I know the dress is blue and black and that's what pisses me off. I can't even see blue and black if I try.

I recall seeing pictures of the dress in other light that make it obvious, and when you compare them next to each other i can see what's going on, but yeah by default my eyes 100% see white/gold here.
I'm sitting here with my professor Mom, and her award winning teacher friend who both see gold and white while I see very clearly black and blue. I tried zooming in on specific areas to show them just the shoulder, that I see as blue. They said they still saw white. Then I went to a black area, and I'll be fucking damned if I didn't see some definite gold! The majority of it was black, but there is definitely gold in that picture if you zoom in.

Can't believe it's been 10 years. I'm getting old, and I'm not even 40.
