IP lawyer folks, I'm curious (for non-professional reasons). On the topic of copyright protection for game rules as such have there been any legal developments since the Bang!/Legends of the Three Kingdoms litigation back in 2014?

State of law as I recalled it was generally only literal words, art, etc. were protected *but* there was movement that a suit against a comprehensive clone of another game could at least survive SJ.

Hey, #lawfedi, can you help me find an obscure citation rule?

I need to cite my own article for something I'm writing. I'm positive I've heard that self cites require a special citation. So, what's the special rule for bluebook citing a secondary source you wrote yourself?

I can't find it, and now I've misplaced my bluebook too. :(

@kairyssdal Reading the article, it appears the person involved was a known Grimes stalker with some pretty serious delusions. I hope he gets some help.

@islandsky @marcelias @democracydocket Lake was out yesterday with her "Lock 'em up," "Tyranny," "Supreme Court," BS yesterday, so this probably won't put an end to her BS

The American people have a right to know the name of every elected official who plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 election on #Jan6 or impose martial law.

The rot at the core of the far right runs deeper than #DonaldTrump.

@macroliter @freemo It's likely not a legit poll. Elon was at the World Cup today, and his investors purportedly indicated that he should find a suitable CEO and step back.

Don't watch Taskmaster whilst eating dinner or drinking something.

@Izzod@izzodlaw.com That's okay, I can't find the edit function

The Twitter Berlin Wall just went up.

Im glad to be here in West Mastodon, under the careful leadership of Prime Minister #JohnMastodon, but we still need to help our friends and family stuck behind the wall escape.

(And that includes blocking/banning/defederating the malicious actors coming along with them.)

If you're still on the birbsite and have your handle in your name or bio, this is your last week there.

So make use of it. Remind everyone you've left, and help the last few folks leave while it's still possible for them to use automated tools to do it

Every day of Twitter news that comes out I get happier and happier with this shirt. Thanks @chancerydaily

@StevenBeschloss Figures Jar-Jar was there. No one is having anywhere near a good time. Maybe the guy sneaking a tall rum & coke...
