djoko is such a motherfucker, at the australian open this year some unranked kid got two sets on him and he was so mad he crosscourted every shot from then on and ran dude like a loving dog until he quit from exhaustion in the 4th set. never seen anything like it, ever

Brady had a pretty mediocre game last night. The bucs didn’t win so much as the refs ignored major penalties so they could finish their drive at the end. It was really blatant and soured a really good game up to that point

djokovic isn’t a terrible person or anything he’s just not as good at pretending not to be a narcissistic rear end in a top hat as most elite sports folks are

same as it is in other contexts

a player was taking like 10 minute bathroom breaks, literally always immediately after he lost a set. there was a bunch of suspicion that he was just using it as an excuse to take a bunch of time and compose himself while the other person is stuck out on court waiting for him to come back

I extremely underestimated how many seeds would actually sprout so I had to move several plants to bigger pots. I bought a giant whiskey barrel pot for my tomatoes.

yeah its neat. also different is the king or "general" cant leave the 3x3 box that forms his palace, except if he's on an open file opposing the enemy general and then he can fly all the way across the board to checkmate the enemy general. there are 2 queens called "guards" but they can only move diagonally within the palace and cant leave it. the bishops are called "elephants" and work similarly with the biggest difference being they can't cross the "river" which is the center line in the board, and they also move exactly 2 spaces at a time. the rooks are called "chariots" and they work 100% the same as a rook. theres only 5 pawns and they dont capture diagonally, but instead once they cross the river they can move left or right in addition to moving forward. the pawns also don't promote into better pieces.

other than all of that, it's the exact same game

chess figure names in russian:
king - king
queen - vizier
bishop - elephant
knight - horse
rook - shallop
pawn - pawn
