@RogersHelps FYI - you have an old link in this pinned tweet. Also how long should it take for an outage to show up, I have been out for over a half an hour and I am not alone in that but apparently there are no outages in my area.

@jordanbpeterson Almost like demanding traditional gender roles has a warping effect on boys social development. To me all this says in a lot more men should be feminist.

If you include the NC claus then you are not allowed to monetize derivative works in any way. Third parties would not be able to profit in anyway from the derivative works, ie. anyone can do anything but only WoTC can make money.

@Sean_Cooke13 @JesseBlake You weren't paying attention then https://t.co/udFXE8WM7U

Fun fact, we sided with Devils fans with the Haula kick.

We said, "we understood why Devils fans were pissed"

And I end the video by saying that I thought Huala had a good goal at the time it went in.

@kevinbradley96 @lincodega If they did a commercial CC licence it would be more restrictive that the leaked OGL. The other option is to allow a company like Disney to make a D&D show without having to pay WoTC anything.

@criticalsfl @PhoRider @JaviTweetedHere @lexsion @stevemur @michaelharriot Yes Musk speaks against shadow banning but he also has suggested that twitter limits the reach of hateful material. So limiting the reach of a tweet is not shadow banning so there is no evidence of shadow bans in the 'leaks' just twitter doing what Musk has said he will do.

@the1janitor Yes gamers were outsiders and ridiculed when I started. That is part of why I want gaming to be accepting and inclusive. If you came out of the D&D satanic panic and your response now is to try to make gamers part of the "woke panic" then you didn't learn anything.

@Hyundai My wife contacted you and were told that you couldn't help because we have a Canadian VIN. Is there something more you could do to help us out?

[James Ford @swervm]

Word of advice - Never buy a Hyundai if you plan to drive between Canada and the US. We had a warranty covered breakdown on a family vacation and apparently neither @Hyundai or @HyundaiCanada can help us out. $15000+ out of pocket and 7 weeks and still no car.

I present to you the second-ever truly valuable life hack I have found on the internet: **how to keep the seat next to you empty on a plane/bus**

[James Ford @swervm]

@ryangerritsen The stupidest take ever. The people he is not shaking hands with are clearly indicating they don't want hand shakes, not sure why respecting other boundaries around physical touch is a bad thing. And the camera's, you want the PM to keep the press out of events?

@TaliZorEl I have been playing Idle Champions of the Forgotten Realm a lot. It has some fun DnD characters in it (like Hew Maan, who is three kobold in a coat)

@cyberwaif Walking away (technically getting hauled) from having a heart attack while clinging to a tower trying light dynamite took some good fortune.

@geoffconant @CP24 If you had a bag of expired milk and you took some and tested it to see if it was going off you might not choose to throw the whole thing out. Generally not enough value in doing that for milk, but for vaccines why not?

[James Ford @swervm]

@jfdubeau To be fair the coming out and saying the police could stop people at any time to confirm that they were out of their house for a legitimate reason was a dumb over step. Fortunately the police were not interested in taking Ford up on the offer and he has backed down.

[James Ford @swervm]

@jfdubeau Sounds good.

@JustinRYoung Not nearly the worst typo I have seen this week
