style_system | Selecting text

When I select text in my current layout, I can't actually see the selection. The color of the selection is similar to the color of my layout's body. I believe that color is #F6F6F6. I'm not sure what to edit in my CSS to make selected text blue as usual. Can anyone help me? (Assuming my explanation makes sense)

Here's my CSS:
