LET CSS PICK AN ACCESSIBLE COLOR! `color-contrast()` will automatically pick a color that passes contrast ratios, just give it a list to choose from. aka: throw colors at it! ```#css body { background: var(--blue2); color: var(--onblue2); } ```

5 Things I Learned From My Amtrak Writer’s Residency | Scott Berkun

2. I was fortunate enough to win an Amtrak writer's residency a few years ago and rode from Washington D.C. to Seattle. It was amazing despite how limited service was at times. A much better way to see America than by highway in many ways.
