So people looking at this photograph actually can perceive this to be white and gold? thats utterly wild. And hard to believe.

I found this image to be a really good way to distill the issue down into the two different modes or perception:

I can never see black and blue. I assume all those who claim to see black and blue are bots. fite me

I still only see white/gold even though the actual dress was black/blue

Ok is this post some sort of trick? I opened up lemmy, saw it white and gold for the first time in my life, then I took a shower, now it is blue and black once more.

10 YEARS AGO?!

I only see white gold

Literally the entire planet remembers this. Even people who were not born yet.

When that was going around I saw it as black and blue, and my partner at the time saw it as white and gold. When it was revealed that it was actually the former, I made a comment something like “I guess the difference is I see things as they actually are”, which got me a sharp look. :)

whats next? are you gonna post who remembers yanny/laurel? bitch be fr

Just asked my kids (Not around for the first time). One says blue and black/gray and the other said purple and green/gray. I’ve never known anyone who actually saw it as white and gold. Only heard that people do.

I swear it was blue and black this morning, but now it’s white and gold!

Yes, I do remember ten years ago.

Here’s a pretty good Slate article on this dress, and how important this image became:

When I look at the image attached to this post, I can’t see anything but white and gold, as I always have. This, in spite of now knowing it’s black and blue.

everyone’s wrong, gold and baby blue
