ROYLGTCABV
Uhh I was thinking about the rainbow and how it shouldn’t be ROYGBIV cause Issac Newton randomly decided it should be 7 and then found that scientists now use ROYGCBV and I tried to make a new rainbow with just the primary and secondary colors RYGCBM but Magenta isn’t in the rainbow (cause it’s a mix of high and low nm wavelength light) so that leaves RYGCB but then it looked stupid without orange so I wanted tertiary colors so I added them to get ROYLGTCABV (There isn’t one past Red because it drops off a cliff toward infrared but there is a color past blue as it goes to ultraviolet: violet) Red, Orange, Yellow, Lime, Green, Teal, Cyan, Azure, Blue, Violet.
I still think it looks stupid. I think it’s because our red and green cones are right next to each other and blue is farther away so because of that we have a higher range of distinct colors in the red-green area than blue. (Useful for telling ripe fruit from foliage. We and primates got it as a mutation on the X chromosome and evolution must’ve made us keep it cause it turned out to be useful) So I think to make it even better it needs to not be halfway and quarter between red green and blue but weighted toward the red/green side. Very random thinking on this Saturday lol but that’s why it was in my clipboard.

Just using the interest rate is an unfair comparison. You have to go get median house prices and median incomes as well to make a proper comparison. Just saying the rate was higher at some point is useless if we don’t also compare the prices and incomes because what really matters is affordability. Not saying your whole comment is wrong, just trying to say that this particular part seems to be biased in favor of the Boomers.
Median home price to median household income ratio This ratio is a key indicator of housing affordability. It measures how many years of the median household’s income are needed to purchase the median-priced home. Period Median Household Income Median Home Price Price-to-Income Ratio 1980 ~$21,000 ~$65,000 ~3.1x 2024 ~$85,000 ~$415,000 ~4.9x Comparison of mortgage payments Even with the high interest rates of the 1980s, the lower home values meant a smaller overall loan and a monthly payment that took up a smaller percentage of the median household income. Here is a side-by-side comparison of a hypothetical mortgage for a median-income household in 1980 and 2024: Mortgage metric Early 1980s 2024 Median income $22,000 $85,000 Median house price $47,000 $415,000 20% down payment $11,000 (~50% of annual income) $83,000 (~98% of annual income) Loan amount $36,000 $332,000 Interest rate 13% 7.5% Monthly payment $397 $2,321 Payment as % of gross income

Everyone should check out One Pace, it’s a fan project to condense the One Piece animation down into the format and pacing of the manga. It’s really good!
- Comment on Why are they even doing this, the grass wasn't even that tall 6 months ago:
My HOA gives us increasing fines if a piece of grass so much as TOUCHES the sidewalk. So it’s not my fault :( I would rather let it grow and have a ton of biodiversity but nooooo. Also I’m not joining the HOA or running for the board or any of that crap. I would love if someone came and planted some plants that were on the extinction list and the HOA couldn’t do anything about. That would make me so happy to stick it to them.
