Most people know what Pantone colors are and how they are used by paint formulas and even sports teams sig colors. So Pantone had declared the hot color for 2026 is Cloud Dancer, white with blue undertones. And people are flipping out?





I remember there was this "artist" back in the 90s (forget his name) but his signature paintings were shades of white on white canvas. Yes, they were lame as hell but his work was still exhibited in famous art museums. he'd be tarred and feathered today.


I'd like to imagine her husband was sitting in the kitchen enjoying a nice quiet cup of coffee when he saw her burst through the door in a fit of rage on the way to the backyard with her phone and one of those big ol stupid ring lights these idiots use. He just looked down, began rubbing his eyes, and realized that in addition to his life being miserable, so would this day.

Pretty sure that IF Pantone is commenting on white supremacy with their color of the year, it was done as a criticism of it, not in support of it. These are artists and designers influencing these picks after all.
