A beautiful tribute ❤️

@Fionn_Chess well said

We all wonder how low-rated players are so unbelievably strong these days. Then, when you reflect on it, you remember that the chess world has had free training from absolutely world-class players and educators like Danya. His legacy will be stronger than we can measure.

If Danya was commentating I’d always watch the channel he was on. His passion and love for chess always shone through so brightly, from his analysis to funny anecdotes and puns. My heart hurts. RIP Daniel Naroditsky 😔❤️

@gmmds Happy belated birthday. You're an absolute gem of our community. Hope you had a wonderful day!

@PresidentNoir Let's go!! Hope you had fun

@th3caterpillar So stunning! :)

I’m just soft launching them hehe, my online shop will be up after I order in my stickers! Yaaayyy! So stay tuned ;p

Guysss my prints arrived!! They look sooo good I’m obsessed :3 #ELDENRING

This tweet is for everyone who said they were going to do some chess study this weekend but was actually just too exhausted from the week. Take that Sunday nap ♥️ it's ok! #chesspunks

Karma : when someone gifts me +15 seconds in a time scramble because they're completely winning, about to queen a pawn and are smug about it Then they stalemate me 😂

@LozHCooper Sadly it's beyond my usual 😞 Some days I definitely feel the head injury aftereffects more than others

@CleominaChess I think everyone does that.

It's possible I had a concussion a couple months back. I'm feeling a lot better generally. But some days I look at a chess board or position and just.... can't make sense of it at all. Completely miss the most obvious things. Sigh.

@MorrisHern Thank you🙏

@CleominaChess I’ve had a few concussions as well and I play chess lots. Tons of sleep and doing some very basic tactics has helped my board vision get back to about my pre-concussion days. Best of luck!

Now is the perfect time to get into chess. 1. It's a great distraction 2. It can be *extremely* meditative & still feels productive 3. You don't have to invest hours at a time, a puzzle or two can fill a few mins 4. There's a lovely #chesspunks community 🦋✨

One of the great features of Bluesky 🦋 is you can subscribe to lists that mute or block people en masse depending on their profile or content. This is huge and means your discovery feed is clean of ragebait and bullshit. Come join us and find me there ♥️

@WFrostick @over_the_board @whimsnickal There's a few of us who have made the move over!

@over_the_board @whimsnickal @CleominaChess 😂 Bastards! Is there a chess punk’s community on there already?

I'm on 🦋 and enjoying the vibe over there. If you're there too let me know I need more chess folk to follow! ✨🙏

@WFrostick Blue sky
