Background

In her 2015 autobiography, Cole said she felt this was a crucial album to her, as her last studio album of original material was Feel This Free in 2005. She read Dolly Parton would take herself into a cabin in the Smokey Mountains where she would fast and write songs. Taking inspiration from that, Cole found small cabins, usually near the ocean, river or stream, where she would fast and write. It is the first album in which Cole had written every track.[1]

gollark: ~ is bitwise NOT and not logical NOT, so it might not be valid to use it for this, and by not valid I mean "æÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆææææææææÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆÆ undefined behaviour" (not really sure, but it might not like having a bool contain 255, and if you were to do ~true that would probably give 254, which is also bad).
gollark: Why ~ instead of ! for NOTing?
gollark: Weird. Although that isn't how you spell result, and I question your choice to make gates objects when they're just functions.
gollark: More context required probably.
gollark: It's not Lua, it's floating point numbers.
