on #OApod , lawyer Andrew covers an article on #WotC 's leaked #OGL changes with comedian Thomas

He says the update won't change much for the Dungeons and Dragons fanbase, but beware paragraph 12b

Update would restrict use of AD&D by neo-Nazis and other white nationalists, prevents NFT grift. And also unauthed mind flayer t-shirts

Pathfinder likely would have to pay some

Opening Arguments podcast covers how Musk blew half his $400 bln to pay for most of a $44 bln purchase ( Dorsey, Ellison, Saudi Arabia, etc also paid in ) for a corporate wasteland he is burning to the ground
