Methinks chess is too simple for a man of my... shall we say, not inconsiderable intellect! It's over 100 years old [laughs] it doesn't even include [tries really hard to think of something from a video game that will make people like me] Companion Cube

The good news is that Sinners is a really great movie, I laughed I cried I really loved it. The bad news is that while I was out watching it one of the elderly mice passed away so my poor kids were grieving without me for a couple of hours. Pour one out for Chuu-Chuu, sweet and curious til the end.

Everyone watching Pierre Poilievre eat absolute shit in Carleton and respecting Canada's bilingual culture.

The plucky mini Dachshund who survived for 18 months on her own in the Australian wild has been returned to domesticated status. Whether this constitutes a rescue is left to the reader’s determination. www.bbc.com/news/article...
