My first coach (40+ at the time) thought I (12-14 at the time) was interested in him, so it’s alright to sexually assault and harass me. And after I finally cut contact with him, besides spreading fake gossip he stalked and harassed me online for years. 7/8

Racing Post Idk once a horse has been officially declared I don’t really think the owner not being able to attend is sufficient reason for said horse to be withdrawn in all honesty.

from aiming to be women's world champion to aiming to be world champion and the best player in the world - this is why it matters so much to give little girls the space and permission to dream big ❤️

🙏 Indeed I would, and do! 🇺🇦 In more ways than one, I could hardly wish for a better successor than Magnus. It isn't required to have great character to be a great chessplayer, so it is doubly impressive for him to achieve both.

detry the disappointing strikes again! guy couldn't win a tournament in his backyard.

Haha, I was featured in FIDE's Instagram story, asking for a signature from Svidler while he was on a break 😂 #ChessOlympiad2024

i feel sorry for all these people like magnus carlsen and vishy anand who have to sign lots of autographs as they enter and exit a playing hall.

Does this eragasi ever make an error

GM norm ✅🇯🇵 #チェスオリンピアード2024

this looks like a poster for a horror movie, who is designing these

Almost ready with my next book!

Watching the English patient. Hard to believe it's 28 years old. So much better than the cgi drivel they foist on us these days.

I'm so happy I was able to meet one of my favorite #Chessable authors, GM Gawain Jones from the English team🤗 If you are into subtle, British humor, I really recommend his courses! #ChessOlympiad2024

does this indian team ever make a mistake?! opponents must be getting frustated! one of the players make a sub-optimal move at some point?! @FIDEOLYMPIAD

please invite me on a podcast so i dont have to ramble about gender segregation in chess to no one in particular and instead i can have a discussion with someone else about it. but here u go, monologue enjoyers

I've heard that the new bbc chess show (a reboot of the master game) isn't going to follow the old format of boring grandmasters waffling on about their games. instead it's going to feature patzers battling it out, so that people watching at home can relate to them.

only wesley holding up the older generation. I think what is happening here is that Arjun and Gukesh have leapfrogged Pragg as the most promising talents in India. And a similar dynamic in the womens, as Divya now seems more promising than Pragg's sister, Vaishalli.
