Why waste energy by being emotional about work? For me, everything is a cold business decision, balancing the value of my time, how much money I need to live the life I want, and who I want to sell that time to.

People who have been brought up to believe sex is the only thing that defines a person obviously can't understand any non-sexual reason to look up to anyone.

Legally speaking, perpetual does not mean irrevocable, it only means it does not expire. It is possible to have things irrevocable in a contract or license, but it has to be specifically called out in the text.

That said, it's still shaky ground. Courts look unkindly towards obvious bad faith. For example, Wizards themselves on Q&As have very strongly implied it would never be revoked. While the text of a contract is what matters, lying or misleading others is obvious bad faith. Especially 20 years later after allowing derivative works to thrive.

In any case, the courts have already ruled that game mechanisms cannot be copyrighted or trademarked. Creators who want to make stuff explicitly to be compatible with D&D (or any other game) cannot be stopped unless they use actual trademarks like names of things that aren't in the dictionary or public domain. If the court hears a case AND rules against WotC, it would be an absolute disaster for them, as the OGL will become completely irrelevant, poison pills or not, and One D&D will be cloned in real time with impunity.

I hope WotC is arrogant enough to sue a small-potatoes creator who successfully crowdfunds a legal defense and makes this dream come true.

Hollywood as usual. Ego, politics, and ambition. There are lots of ways to poise things for success or make them sure to fail. Knowing this, almost everything has been hand-picked for winners and losers.

Something to consider.

First seconds: "See if you can stick the landy"

The actual brain damage.

They're never going to have a problem with people choosing their art to inject into some AI database.

Good thing they're legitimately terrible trackers, too. Literally wiimote level tech being sold in current day for crazy prices.

Thanks for the vid, I've always been suspicious of "oh, yeah, everything before Christianity was gay" but this guy did a ton a heavy lifting to actually destroy it.

Has it happened much in American football? Soccer guys have been dying a lot but it's a lot more non-stop running and physical exertion.

What I'd like to know if this winds up being the turning point for fat, burger munching sportsball quarterbacks in their dens to wake up and realize what their government has inflicted on them.

Imagine a robed pervert sitting behind a wooden desk ruling that your son is to be mutilated and then literally doing nothing about it but whine.

I agree. It's mediocrity and lack of inspiration makes it a little more difficult to distinguish from NPC writing, to be honest.

Wasn't he sucking Biden's dick over his response to Right to Repair?

At least Republicans will outright make up some bullshit like "corporate rights" and slam it in your face. Democrats are all just phony posturing with dog and pony.

AirBNB is still on the rim of the big net of crony companies, and they don't shell out enough to politicians to avoid this kind of trouble.

The proof is that no one would ever think about suing Marriott or Hilton about whores and whoremongers renting rooms from them.

They failed the intelligence test. They're already dead and they don't even know it.

It's just propaganda to the NPCs so they can feel better about being losers.

The usual formula.

  1. It's a conspiracy theory
  2. Alt-right boogeyman
  3. Okay, it exists but it's just theoretical
  4. You got us, it's more than theoretical but only a fringe minority talk about it
  5. That fringe minority does more than just talk about it
  6. No one is teaching it to your kids
  7. Okay, they were teaching it to your kids but it comes from a good place
  8. Teaching it to your kids is a HuMaN rIgHt!!!
  9. A celebration of ______ and why it's a good thing.
