I would definitely pause even as much as a thought about having kids until certain world events get resolved. I'm not envying people who chose to have kids now, ignorance is not always bliss
-
This one's pretty EZ, I'm pretty sure that after rook D2 every possible square white king can land on leads him on a path towards a checkmate or taken queen and then eventual checkmate

You could say that about most things. Whether you enjoy a particuliar thing or not is the deciding factor. I mean look, you're saying you're not that interested in chess and yet this topic has probably one of the highest densities of your responses per page lol

It's not possible for every single to day to be worthy of celebration by definition, since each individual day would be the same therefore nothing would be special about it therefore not worthy of a celebration, I know 🧘♂️wookies™ are looking at this differently but I'm more about that common sense type shiet

The more days there are celebrated, the merrier as far as I'm concerned, medieval people had a clear edge over us especially in this department, them MFs had rest days for like half a year

There is such a tournament in fact, it's called free market/ attention economy -

It could’ve been over in the first if Joshua didn’t have so much respect for him. He could’ve just kept pushing forward, and there’s nothing Jake Paul could’ve thrown that would’ve hurt him, in my opinion. He was being too careful and systematic tbh, but Jake aint no Ruiz lol -
The writer of that article is just some popular, socially well off black woman - with good looks + she's a woman + spews endless social justice articles and content, so she fits right into the correct narrative. Although she most certainly wouldn't see it that way, in reality imho for her life is a smooth cruise. So who really cares what she writes or thinks, if she and women like her think that having a boyfriend is embarrassing, then they are entitled to having their own opinion and choice

That money comes with a cost though, imagine videos and clips of you getting whooped all around the internet, and people making fun of it lol not everyone would be able to handle that Either way, I think the talent pool for all sports in general will keep shrinking and reducing in quality because our priorities seem to be different, so I expect these types of attention whoring events becoming more and more of a norm, keeping all sports afloat so to speak -

"Kings" lol this is all just internet slop bro. Everything is getting shitified nowadays and martial arts are no exception, because we are all dopamine addicts and we worship personalities that make us feel some type of way, and just dumb confidence, instead of having appreciation for actual skill, this is all our fault. Otherwise how can you explain Jake Paul getting in the ring with Anthony Joshua when he never had any business being there at all lol and have you seen the technique of that Chase guy, chin high in the air, completely telegraphed punches thrown in the air higher than a skyscraper, etc. LOL just terrible. What a trash -

I feel similiarly, except, as things stand right now, I can't really even be fucked to care about voting. Just the way I think now, maybe I will end up voting but right now I wouldn't. I'm checked out. To be honest, in my opinion, I think the way this works is that the more you are aware how things most likely REALLY actually work, the more you'll have to try to find something you can care about or find a meaning in, eventually it can become a real struggle -

Yup, let's again incentivize our education system! For each correct answer, a kid will avoid a beating! That will teach those little buggars! -
I would probably do knight to g4 at first, threatening immidiate checkmate. White would have to therefore take with the pawn, exposing a path for my rook on the g3 square. After that, I don't know lmao I'd probably loose. Whatever who cares, if you can't immidiatelly win with a briliant move rook sacrifice, the game wasn't all that good anyway

UFC fighters aren't paid enough to throw away money like that in the first place, add things like physical therapy and various medical expenses, fight camp expenses, staff expenses etc. and after those are concluded even those fighters on the top of the roster end up having only decent money, nothing extraordinary. Most are barely making it by. Although I guess Jiři does have his own way of solitary training but there's no way he doesn't spar, doesn't go throught fight camp at all. And he does get hit a lot with his style, it's a miracle that he's so eloquent still and able to talk about consciousness and stuff like that
