Any Chess Players?

Welcome to what might be the least watched World Champion match ever. (Although India will all tune in) Nepo doesn’t lose a single game in the candidates and doesn’t win the tournament. He’s the Utah Jazz in the Bulls era. Fabi and Naka had chances and couldn’t do it. Fabi, with heartbreaking miss a...

TIL about “The Gang of Eight” and how it might have helped in Mike Johnson doing a 180 on Ukraine aid. Neat.

I just watched Jesse Watters trying to cast doubt on every single juror. Essentially framing them all as liberal activists that lied to the judge to bring down Trump. Just disgusting behavior and a blatant dog whistle. It really seems like the country has hit the tipping point in believing propagan...

Someone smarter than me can probably come up with something
Utah Chets or Chads

Investing, Stock Market and Retirement Planning Thread

Need BTC to crash again so I can start buying again. I was for a while just throwing $50 a paycheck at it. Gonna cash out when I’m 60. I don’t think I’ll get rich but I do have confidence that I’ll come out with more than I put in. Also, I’m probably a rube.

Legally why is Trump just getting a stern talking to or a “shame on you” after violating his gag order over and over again instead of being put in jail like any of us would.

I didn’t say the “it didn’t work in the desert” line because that wasn’t the truth. It didn’t work in large part because it was never a priority for the NHL or for Arizona.

tbh the “how many kindergarteners could you take?” convo is more interesting


though this is where being short will hurt me. I’m sure someone who’s 6’2” 250 would have a much easier time. I bet some kindergarteners would make it up to my shoulders
You could take at least 5.

What, no recently separated NHL player they can put in there? Sounds like a job for Malcolm Subban. I imagine it’d be more of a behind the scenes role that would use former and current players to come in and draw the community’s interest. Say famous King Henrik backup Martin Biron or famous bad boy...

do you really believe that?
They aren’t organized. The approach was a shock and awe attack. You give one of those little snots a big boot to the face right off the bat and the others will cower in fear. Hell pick one up and use them as a weapon. Breaking them mentally would be easy.

Even though the window is pretty much closed, I think this goes down as one of the hardest lost seasons in a while. IMO the reason being that the team brought in the reigning Norris and one of the all time great offensive defenseman the league has seen. It somehow resulted in a PP that was pretty mu...
