this is, of course, partly westminster system things but still

Olivia Chow has received the highest number of votes of any Mayoral Candidate in Toronto history. Prior to this the high was Mel Lastman with 483,277 in 2000. She has recieved 523,641 and counting. More votes than *any* elected rep at *every* level of government in Canada has *ever* gotten.

chuckling that not only did Chow win huge but, apparently, the third place guy was an insane fake candidate pretending to be related to her

i dunno

Watched a video my opponent made of our game from R4 Arco. Decent confidence boost to see that he did not seem to understand the position or the ideas. This guy, 2250, is looking at my play and thinking I must be completely in prep even though I'm just vibing and trying to play on understanding.

why is there a rule about how many people are allowed in a huddle?

having eaten at the cheesecake factory and ordered the mac and cheese burger i might push back on the "minus the war crimes" part

why are multiple fascists bragging about being able to identify giraffes

hello from tirana airport at Hell O'clock in the morning

[sung like the intro to bobby roode's entrance song glorious] FRAUDULENT

The F stands for "Fraudulent."

leaving for the airport at 1 am. yeeing and hawing out of control

training with chessable

Starting out 4/5 for the second tournament in a row. Also this one's a team tournament so I will not necessary face a killer next round.

Won with a hammer today. Up to 1.5/2 personally. Team lost 4-2 today, after losing 4.5-1.5 round 1. The losses are obviously undesirable but also not out of line with the pairings.

messed up my game but my opponent was bad at time management and I saved it. then anish giri kidnapped my opponent when we were analyzing the game. i swear revenge

it is now october 16th, the day the final phase of the Grand Journey begins. to budva, and the eccc opening ceremony.

saw a picture of a guy who moved away 15 years ago or something and my god he looked hideous

hooting

it's neat seeing discrete discourse threads all making the same mistake. neato.

hmm i think i have decided that the (second) closest movie to digger is the ballad of buster scruggs. and i'm right.

i liked the idea of anthony bowens, who broke up the acclaimed because he wanted to be a serious singles star, getting madder and madder because max caster was getting popular being a dumbshit who got his ass beat. that was a fun character idea.

'Upon learning of the prize, according to her agent, Nicole Aragi, Carson said, “Yikes.”'

did something morally questionable (accepted a draw on move 10 against a higher rated opponent when I had white). It my defence, I am tired and the line is like 75% draw in classical, and I have zero familiarity so I probably wasn't gonna generate a win if he was going to force a draw.

Found a new contender for Best Name in Western Canadian Hockey

goofed the opening but salvaged it, and had the barest chance for more later if only I was a bit of a stronger player. Still in first at 4.5/5.

Won again. Didn't play so well but my opponent was worse. To 4-0 we go.

capped a 2250 today with black. highest rated opponent defeated in classical in... I think a little over 4 years.

leaving a piece of my heart here (mosquitoes drank all my blood)

oh no digger discourse reached my timeline and it is somehow worse than i anticipated

also iñarritu and gael garcia bernal were clearly talking about things given the extensive similarities between the digger and hombre al agua
