# Preamble
By ancient rites, this code is bound,
No mortal hand may twist it 'round.
# Terms of Use
Permission granted: to mend and make,
To copy, share, for spirit's sake.
Yet mark: no coin, no profit gained,
Shall taint this magic, unrestrained.
# Disclaimer
Provided "as is," without a truth,
No crone will blame, if ill, forsooth.
# Enforcement
The pact by moonlight, strongly spun,
Binds souls if greed hath now been won.
# Cost
The threads are spun, the spell complete,
No greed, lest curses, you shall meet.
Good license though I might need to consult a witch instead of a lawyer for an exact interpretation.

I'm gonna use it on something harmless, like the code that opens a gate located on Mars.
You can’t just shoot a hole into the surface of Mars

Can you elaborate, please?
What's the difference between twisting the code around (which is forbidden) and mending it (which is allowed)?
That is talking about the license, it's saying you can't relicense a derivative.
Changing the original intent versus submitting patches?
Very good meme license, but please for the love of god never use it for any project of yours
I love this. Thanks.
Non-commercial usage restriction makes this license not FOSS compatible.
Additionally, 'no mortal hand' restriction is strange, it permits someone like medusa to modify the code while forbidding that to actual software engineers, and would a software engineer dictating code to a medusa be a breach of this clause? I'm not saying that long-lived organisms cannot obtain programming skills, but it is exceedingly rare.
