@ChessVonDoom oh yeah, the thing with the Top Guys!

@ChessVonDoom THE MAN ISN'T JUST A CHESS STREAMER HE'S ALSO A VIDEO GAME STREAMER AND ALSO BY THE WAY (what was that other thing you posted about recently??) AND NOW HE'S GETTING A MASTERS TOO
no wonder he needs all the souls he can get
English

I know it's bad when my friends think I'm sick when I'm not taking souls. I'm learning swiftly that Master's degrees require even more time than I was devoting to chess study. It'll be tricky creating a new space for chess in my life, but I'll figure it out ☺️#chess #chesspunks

@h0lysarthole Pretty sure they have central air on Mario party though

@ChessVonDoom Whattttt are all these extra hobbies you keep dropping on us man?? Making the rest of us look lazy!
English

@ChessVonDoom @AngryWizard2 Though now I’m thinking this through I don’t think I’ve properly incentivized you here
English


When I'm not playing chess, I'm playing RPGs. If you're interested in this content, follow my shenanigans over on @AngryWizard2

@ChessVonDoom @AngryWizard2 I’ll give you an Accord every time I beat you from now on

@seankellychess @AngryWizard2 Bro, I needed to do something to ease the pain of my classical loss to you 🤣

@ChessVonDoom @natesolon I THINK WE SHOULD RESCHEDULE OUR MATCH ON FRIDAY SINCERELY, ME
English


Too many #chesspunks complaining about not being able to increase your rating, when you have not even tried poisoning your opponents.
English

@BlunderChad Ahahaha, or you handle your ingredients and inspect them for a few hours every night and then suddenly on Friday at 9pm you throw them all in a pot on max heat for 3 minutes until everything is thoroughly charred
English

@seankellychess Imagine learning how to cook and occasionally, as you add the salt or some fennel, you hear a random disembodied voice saying, “that’s not the right idea.” Or missing a jump shot and immediately seeing -12 in big bright digits on the backboard.

Chess is such a unique hobby, tell me which other hobby you can literally spend meaningful hours on without actually DOING? #chesspunks

@ChessVonDoom @RoyieArt I’m mid thirties and I’m here for this advice.
English

I'm (cough) "slightly" older than you 🤣, but I can assure you that this is completely normal. The thing that's tough about your mid thirties is what I like to call the "Illusion of time". You think you still have time to "figure out what you want to pursue". The truth is, you don't. You'll blink and you'll be 50. I don't say that to scare you, but to empower you. Make the most of every moment, my friend. Decide who you get to be, and the mark you get to leave on this world. Then go after that thing with all your passion. Leave this world better than you found it. Don't wait. Go after all of your dreams. I'm cheering for you.
English

Now in my mid thirties, I think about mortality a lot and narrowing down on things I want to pursue.
Are people experiencing the same thing?

I’ve been reading through Morphy games quite a bit and just had the pleasure of playing a brilliant tactical Evan’s gam….. oh. #chesspunks

Happy birthday to me! 4️⃣0️⃣🎂
My amazing wife bought me this beautiful chess set… which I’ve set up into a puzzle.
White to play:
