is the Dark One also split in half?? is there an antimale and antifemale?? or is it just the Light One who gets divided into Gender
> The One Power is divided into male and female halves, saidin and saidar, which work in opposition and in unison to drive the Wheel.
okay so this is like yin and yang. yin, darkness, passivity, femininity, and yang, light, activity, masculinity. surely they are present in all living things and drive the events of history.
> The Creator imprisoned its antithesis, "Shai'tan," the Dark One, at the moment of creation, sealing him away from the Wheel.
okay hold up
are the two halves good and evil or are the two halves male and female make up your mind dude
i’m reading the wikipedia page for the wheel of time and it seems very confused
@Satsuma right but nobody ever talks about the good uses, like, finding a book in a library
@Satsuma oh i was in a discord chat with someone and the conversation went
me: love metadata stuff
friend: gotta have it!
which still gives me minor cognitive dissonance after being bombarded constantly with news about how the government was keeping track of metadata and that’s bad or facebook has all your metadata and that’s bad or your metadata is being used to determine whether or not you can get on a plane and that’s bad
@Satsuma are you too young to remember the snowden leaks
@packetcat the biggest constitutional question i think was https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succession_to_the_Throne_Act,_2013 and apparently it was settled in 2020?
i think there’s still a tiny bit of controversy because Canada’s constitution has changed a fair bit since the last change in monarch, and some aspects haven’t really been tested, for example…
« Constitutional scholar Phillippe Lagassé argues that as the Succession to the Throne Act, 2013, and court rulings upholding the law, section 41(a) of the Constitution Act, 1982, which requires a constitutional amendment passed with the unanimous consent of the provinces, applies only to the "office of the Queen", but not who holds that office, and that therefore "ending the principle of symmetry with the United Kingdom can be done with the general amending procedure, or even by Parliament alone under section 44 of the Constitution Act, 1982."[101][102]
Constitutional scholar Ted McWhinney has also argued that a future government of Canada could begin a process of phasing out the monarchy after the eventual demise of Elizabeth II "quietly and without fanfare by simply failing legally to proclaim any successor to the Queen in relation to Canada". This would, he claimed, be a way of bypassing the need for a constitutional amendment that would require unanimous consent by the federal parliament and all the provincial legislatures.[103] However, Ian Holloway, Dean of Law at the University of Western Ontario, criticized McWhinney's proposal for its ignorance of provincial input and opined that its implementation "would be contrary to the plain purpose of those who framed our system of government." » per wikipedia @ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchy_of_Canada#Succession_and_regency
did canada ever figure out the whole constitutional crisis thing re: queen elizabeth dying or was that just sort of deferred
when i was a kid they told me metadata was bad and that’s why i don’t know how to check a book out of the library
« error: TS2322 [ERROR]: Type 'unique symbol | unique symbol | unique symbol | unique symbol | unique symbol' is not assignable to type 'unique symbol | unique symbol | unique symbol | unique symbol'. » thanks
considering the only part of this i could remember was the part where they go ohh-OHH-ohh and i had another song stuck in my head at the same time it took me a bit to figure out
What a Day That Was (Live)
good at people who are bad at people
@aescling have three: 
@aescling i’ll see which ones look the best
@aescling there appear to be; they’re a bit different design
sweet dreams
sweat dreams
@noelle @millihertz could also be history.pushState() javascript, which is designed to add useful navigation to single page web apps (like mastodon), but on many websites is used in such a buggy manner that it just breaks history navigation instead
