but is it a liberal or socialist democracy, that is the question

“In 50 years, Link transitioned Hyrule to a democracy and also ended racism forever” ambitious

i just think it’s a very funny rhetorical strategy to assume that somebody in the world needs to hear your argument while admitting that you don’t even know who that person might be

and i feel pretty confident that if they needed to hear something from me, i would know

because i have like 20 followers

i don’t know who needs to hear this but they’re not going to

not actually y’all it’s cloudy as fuuuck

the moon
it is full tonight
yes
YES
i can see at 5:30PM

U+2026 … HORIZONTAL ELLIPSIS is literally just “three dot leader” they just gave it a different name for some reason (western bias)

i stand corrected; it looks like U+2024 ․ ONE DOT LEADER and U+2025 ‥ TWO DOT LEADER are indeed intended for this purpose; i had assumed they were technical characters

my guess is that it’s “just use periods” but we should also acknowledge that unicode does not have particularly good ellipsis guidelines presently

are there unicode guidelines on how to encode a single‐ or double‐dot ellipsis

if anything you would think the Wheel would be on the side of the Dark One since he’s the one who was unfairly thrown in prison and all

> In response to this threat, the Wheel spun out the Dragon, a channeler of immense power, to be a champion for the Light.

why does the Wheel………care??

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

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
