FADE IN: EXT. THE UNIVERSE. END OF TIME It is the final moments before the heat death of the universe. A notification pings. "I hope this email finds you well. Here is the PO number you requested. Please attach to your invoice and submit for payment."

It is crazy to me how much more easier and efficient masking is in After Effects than Photoshop and why that method hasnā€™t been transposed after god knows how many years

I suppose the best outcome we can hope for is that Trump gets rinsed in the midterms, the Senate and Congress flip Democrat and the cunt can finally be impeached once and for all.

Is it ā€œthatā€™s bear complicatedā€ or ā€œthatā€™s bare complicatedā€? Itā€™s for a work email, so it has to be proper

Yeah sex is good, but have you ever beaten a player 100 elo points above you in 23 moves without losing a single piece? #chesspunks

So ChatGPT had its job taken by AI then

One thing thatā€™s significantly improved my #chess results is switching from 10min games to 15mins. Fewer mistakes/blunders, more considered board analysis and so far, no losses from winning positions via bloody timeout! #chesspunks

I love it so much when someone blunders their queen in a wayward attack #chesspunks

Approximately 15 seconds of screen time each for those massive elaborate chess pieces used on the Traitors last night

ā€œWelcome to the Traitors Uncloaked, a visualised podcast.ā€ Thatā€™ll be a television programme then BBC. Youā€™ve been making them for years. And you used to know how to hide microphones too.

I got a fleece from Temu for Christmas and just spotted it came with this inspiring message

Things finally clicking it seems. Last 10 rapid games 8 wins, one loss one draw. Elo climbed over 300 (not much I know butā€¦) and the game that did it 1000 rated with no blunders mistakes or misses. Now on to 400. #chesspunks

Throwing games away because yet again because I cannot recognise when I can play a checkmate. Please tell me it gets better šŸ˜­ #chesspunks

What can I tell ya? Advertising works

My average daily screen time has shot up, but thatā€™s ok because Iā€™m playing #chess, right?

Watched a YouTube vid: ā€œThe only White opening you need to win under 2000 elo.ā€ Tried it and got beat 4x in a row. Commented under the vid that the opening only works if black plays the moves played in the vid. The YouTuber responded that my opponents were playing ā€œunreasonableā€ moves! #chesspunks

So how might this happen and how would they detect it, #chesspunks?

Him chomk

Tallinn is such a great city. Everywhereā€™s walkable and you can just wander and see what you find. Today we stumbled upon a Shepard Fairey exhibition at an art gallery. Perfect hangover curing mooching

Happy 2025 from Tallinn!

Getting ready to ring in 2025

Nice little board in a Tallinn wine bar #chesspunks

Came to Tallinn for new years. Beautiful city.

So very rare but so very nice to get a checkmate this early in the game!
