The faire is actually in an abandoned mall where vendors have taken over the old store fronts to sell period accurate wares. People regularly get in fights over whether or not it’s accurate to have goth, scene, and emo cultures all represented in the same time period or if we should consider the beginning of the scene era to be the end of the emo era. People dressed as pirates will still be there for no reason.

25% of the people have a 4th cone and see colors as they are

Given the sudden interest for the color of dresses and vision, here some of the fascinating findings we did recently.

The color nuances we see depend on the number and distribution of cones (=color receptors) in our eye. You can check this rainbow: how many color nuances do you count?

You see less than 20 color nuances: you are a dichromats, like dogs, which means you have 2 types of cones only. You are likely to wear black, beige, and blue. 25% of the population is dichromat.

You see between 20 and 32 color nuances: you are a trichromat, you have 3 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green and red area). You enjoy different colors as you can appreciate them. 50% of the population is trichromat.

You see between 33 and 39 colors: you are a tetrachromat, like bees, and have 4 types of cones (in the purple/blue, green, red plus yellow area). You are irritated by yellow, so this color will be nowhere to be found in your wardrobe. 25% of the population is tetrachromat.

You see more than 39 color nuances: come on, you are making up things! there are only 39 different colors in the test and probably only 35 are properly translated by your computer screen anyway :)

It is highly probable that people who have an additional 4th cone do not get tricked by blue/black or white/gold dresses, no matter the background light ;)

I see 21 colors. I had no idea there are so many more.

[chocolatequeennk]

I see 35-39 colours, and I hate the colour yellow. That was actually what made me curious enough to stop scrolling and count. Who knew there was a scientific reason behind my colour preferences? So the idea here is that what I see as annoyingly, garishly bright, most people don’t see as clearly, and that’s why it’s “cheerful?” (I’ve never understood that description of yellow.)

[sassyhail]

I barely saw 18 or 19. Dang :/

Im fucking colorblind

[zackbuildit]

I see about 40 hello, btw 25% of the population being tetrachromat is a complete myth as most data suggests it’s actually less than 1% IIRC and instead how many you’re seeing depends mostly on the sensitivity of your red and blue cones.

The Second Coming of Jesus Christ, by Ron DiCianni

To prevent His disciples from asking the time of His Coming, Christ said: "About that hour no one knows, neither the angels nor the Son. It is not for you to know times or moments." He has kept those things hidden so that we may keep watch, each of us thinking that He will come in our own day. If He had revealed the time of His Coming, His Coming would have lost its savor: it would no longer be an object of yearning for the nations and the age in which it will be revealed. He promised that He would come but did not say when He would come, and so all generations and ages await Him eagerly. Though the Lord has established the signs of His Coming, the time of their fulfillment has not been plainly revealed. These signs have come and gone with a multiplicity of change; more than that, they are still present. His final coming is like His first. As holy men and prophets waited for Him, thinking that He would reveal Himself in their own day, so today each of the faithful longs to welcome Him in His own day, because Christ has not made plain the day of His Coming.

A list of ways hosts can be hosts because a lot of systems stress about it a lot, including us:

Somebody who stays at front the most, AKA the general definition. You got somebody here who you see most often despite there being many people in the body.

Somebody who stays in the body as default. Nobody wants to front? We have a person right here.

Somebody who does school/daily tasks. Everybody else is there for backup and to fool around, and while they help out as much as they can, the host will be the person to do all the daily stuff needed to function.

Somebody who takes care of the physical body. While you have soothers and caretakers, a host can be somebody who is also a physical protector. There are systems in which alters literally cannot eat, bathe, or sometimes even walk on their own, which is when the host helps out.

Somebody who is best equipped to deal with that specific period of time. Whether the host will change when that period ends or not, there are hosts who become hosts temporarily, doesn't matter for how long. The amount of time can vary from a few days to a few years.

Somebody who manages the outside world. And no, that might not be the same as doing daily tasks and school. Whatever managing the outside world means is different for every system, and is always valid.

Somebody who's been stuck at front for an incredibly long time. Whether they are still stuck or unstuck, they can still be called hosts if they want to.

Somebody who stays being the host for sentimental reasons. Whether it be they spent a long time at front beforehand or something else, there are hosts who can stay being hosts for pure sentimentality.

Somebody who is best equipped to deal with the outside world. And again, no, that does not always mean the statements stated previously. Somebody who is best equipped to deal with the outside world may be anybody, depending ont he system's needs.

Somebody who chills at front and lets others take care of everything. Whether it be because the host is resting or not.

Somebody who wakes up in the body no matter who fell asleep in the same body before them. They might be the default, they might not be, but brain makes sure to make them switch in their sleep.

Somebody who the system decided is host, and who feels like a host. It doesn't matter how often they front, because hosts being more often than others in the body is outdated information, and a label not all systems have in the first place.

Continue the chain if you so desire.

(Note: This is not about the desire to be host or who they are as people. Hosts are still hosts if they want to be or don't want to be, whatever sexuality or race or nationality or personality, yes, however, this is all about functionality.)

Based on the sci-fi fandoms I've had interactions with, here's how I think about their level of chillness.

Star Trek: Honestly? A very mixed bag. Sometimes Star Trek fans will be the most chill people on the face of the planet, and sometimes they're really annoying. Asking their opinions about Discovery is a good way of finding out which category they're in.

Star Wars: Absolutely the worst. Zero chill. Sometimes they vindicate how I felt in 2012 when I actively wanted for the franchise to die out.

Farscape: Genuinely the most chill fandom I've ever encountered. I don't think I've ever had a bad experience with a Farscape fan.

Stargate: These guys had varying levels of chill back in 2009 or so when Universe was first being aired and when Beckett being killed off on Atlantis was still a hot button issue, but they've chilled out a lot since then. The lack of new content has done them some good.

Battlestar Galactica: Pretty much the same as Stargate fans because they didn't have a lot of chill back in '09 or so because the ending was so contentious, but have chilled out a lot since then.

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Out of the sci-fi comedy fandoms, this one has the least chill. They're still okay most of the time, but they can be a bit annoying sometimes.

3rd Rock from the Sun: Chill, but this is probably somewhat related to how small the fandom is.

Resident Alien: From what I've seen, they're chill.

Red Dwarf: Also chill.

Starship Troopers: Honestly, these guys can go either way, too. Some of them lack chill because they're fans of the Robert Heinlein book and don't like that the movie parodied it, and sometimes they're a bit dense and think the movie is nudge nudge, wink wink real talk. The more chill ones kinda know what the movie's about though and actively prefer it to the book.

Ender's Game: How chill these guys are is an inverse correlation of how much they agree with Orson Scott Card.

Deus Ex: Chill. The JC Denton memes are great.

Doctor Who: Lacked chill in the SuperWhoLock days, and now it's a mixed bag on whether or not they'll be chill or not.
