Change is coming to Critical Role with its fourth major campaign: a new setting, more cast members, and Dimension 20‘s Brennan Lee Mulligan at the helm make things more different than they’ve been in some time for the decade-old Actual Play series. Ahead of Campaign 4’s debut in three weeks, the first real trailer gives an idea of what to expect with this new dynamic.

The FTC is suing Ticketmaster for illegally ‘coordinating’ with brokers

The latest targets in the White House’s on-again-off-again antitrust war are Ticketmaster and Live Nation, two villains that everyone appears to agree on. The Federal Trade Commission is accusing Ticketmaster (which owns Live Nation) of allowing ticket brokers to illegally exceed limits on purchases and then profiting off the inflated resale value.

The world’s countries may have pledged to cut its carbon pollution, but with global emissions reaching an all-time high last year they’ve fallen far short. Digging out of that hole is going to require removing carbon straight from the atmosphere. But it comes with a hefty price tag, mostly because of the energy required.
