Matt Walsh has literally called teenage girls “fertile” and has advocated against age of consent laws. His own party fights to legalize child marriage.

Yeah these specific videos were actually declassified last summer. The government is intentionally bringing them back into the spotlight.

As a chess feminist I’m sorry to say this is inaccurate. At the top level tournaments women are able to play in the open section, but men aren’t allowed to play in womens tournaments. There’s lots of misogyny in chess to be discussed but I just wanted to correct the facts.

tournament! I’m black (1840 vs 1702). I have 10 seconds left vs his 15. I panic and blunder with Rxb3 (rook). He plays Qc8+ for mate in 2 and I grab my head in disbelief. He immediately gets up and walks away without hitting his clock… (1/3)

One of the reasons the EPA lied about the safety of the air in lower Manhattan was to reopen Wall Street and the financial district as soon as possible. They only waited a week.
The arbiter awards me a win because he technically flagged on time. My opponent says “Well that’s my fault. That’s the rules. I was lost the whole game anyway.” I feel bad bc he was nice about it lol. What do y’all think? (3/3)
@kennedytcooper
I played in the US womens open and loved it. It’s great that the space exists. It’s a special environment. Of course Myself and others also play in all the major open tournaments, which are always co-Ed.
…despite technically not yet having checkmate.
He doesn’t offer a handshake. He doesn’t set up his pieces. Just gets up and leaves. People were watching my board and witnessed how there was never an official resignation, handshake or agreement that the game was over. (2/3)

I’m trans and Sema is definitely right here. Charlotte is a neoliberal hack and sells out to politicians with transphobic histories.
@LordChickenFeed
I’m confused tho bc you admit that camps still exist and at the very least are ‘re-education facilities’. The living conditions are probably similar to US internment camps of the Japanese in WW2, it wasn’t a concentration camp but we all know it was still evil...
Is it fair to say the reason americans compare everything to the Holocaust is bc it’s the only genocide we’re told to take seriously and are actually educated on in US schools?

Yeah I find it very odd and reactionary when leftists ignore indigenous peoples in self described socialist states. Like some even give full on colonizer talking points against indigenous autonomy.
A Venezuelan judge has found six American oil executives guilty of corruption and sentenced each to more than eight years in prison. The Citgo employees were lured to Venezuela for a business meeting three years ago and arrested.

Northern factory workers. So yes the kkk was formed by the democrat plantation owners. Now times have changed and our parties are more based off of social issues. So modern democrats have no ideological similarities to the KKK, that’s why the KKK members vote republican.
New College has 700 predominantly queer students and has never had a sports team before lmao. Either this is a grift or this is about to be the gayest baseball team ever.
We're pleased to welcome new Athletic Director and Head Baseball Coach, Mariano Jimenez. His history serving as a Team USA's baseball coach and pro-baseball sports agent will help us build a culture of academic and athletic excellence. Welcome to NCF!
I've noticed a pattern at our New College of Florida board meetings: a huge number of the public commenters are the mothers of current students. I would have been mortified if my mom came to my university dressed in a costume, screaming about "fascism." Bizarre development.

There’s power imbalances. Men and women are not on equal social standing. Therefore when women do this about men it is not nearly as bad as if men were doing this about women. History, this male sexualization of women leads to violence, while the same can’t be said for vice versa
This is Joshua’s first campaign so he deserves rightful criticism and he needs to get better at taking it constructively. But like there’s a lot of bad faith smearing and even doxing of his staffers.
Finished 2.5/5 in the open section this weekend!! Wins vs 2060 and 1840. Draw vs 1911. Losses vs 1940 and 2130. Not too bad for a 1700. Being on one of the top boards was cool, I was surrounded by Masters and Grandmasters.

(Pt 2/3) LGBT students perform significantly better in affirming academic environments that validate our existences. This is what NCF has to offer and it’s what we must defend.

Guys ignore the optics. Fred doesn’t like him bc Bernie stands for Palestinian rights, will tax the rich, and challenges the neoliberal establishment. They insult our diverse working class base bc they can’t debate policy and ideology.
Fell down the stairs and smashed my hand on a window, cutting it open. Got 2 dozen stitches. Playing in the Marshall FIDE tournament this weekend so I had to take a half point bye for tn. But I’ll be ready to go tomorrow. But I’ll have to write my notation w non dominant hand lol
OMG I won round 1 of the US Open Vs a 2159!!! (FIDE 2180). It went 4.5 hours and 80 moves. And finished in this pretty forced double bishop mate in 5! I was just hanging in there and he got impatient and blundered in the endgame.
@JimLaPorta
Did you know Tillman called the Iraq war “fucking illegal” and was planning on speaking out against it publicly? And then he was suspiciously killed by “friendly fire”. The military refused to be transparent w the investigation and his family is still looking for answers!
Today I spoke at the FL senate hearing on the ban of trans healthcare for minors, limiting it for adults, and giving citizens the power to kidnap trans kids from their families. They limited public comment to 30 seconds each so I made the most of it.

You’re assuming both would have the same level of crackdown on resistance. Read trumps plans to crush organizing, protests and resistance. He makes it clear it would be significantly more difficult under him than the Democrats status quo.
On this day last year, I got 2nd in the Midwest class u1100 with 4.5/5. I also won mixed doubles and took home $650 total 🤩. Lots of great chess memories made 😌.

HRC has lost all credibility by giving ‘pride’ awards to Jeff Bezos, AT&T and other capitalist entities that are destroying our civilization.
2022 US Open! I had the biggest upset of the tournament, beating a 2150 in round 1. And was 1.5/4 after only playing 1900+ opponents! But then I burned out and only finished 4/9. My lowest loss to an 1850. Still not bad for my 1500 Elo. I need to improve my mental stamina😫

Lol She has one of the highest security clearances of a person in Congress, which was given to her by her democratic lead committee. They gave it to her after they did a thorough investigation of her background and communications.
@LordChickenFeed
It’s also a common oppressive trait to label a group/region as a ‘terrorist hotbed’ and then exploit the region and its people (Like Palestine/Kurdistan/Kashmir etc.). And as someone who wants to abolish prisons I don’t see how camps detaining large amounts of people is justified
I played this guy in Washington Square park and I was completely winning in an endgame but lost on time. Turns out he’s a 2300 rated streamer and I’ll be in his next video lol. (BK chess on YouTube and twitch.)

@turnabouttess
It’s not about your photo. It’s solely about Andrea reposting a misogynistic meme (derived from your photo). That’s what people are upset about. Why aren’t you addressing that?
I yelled “Matt Gaetz!!” And he looked at me in a happy manner (he thought I was a fan) and then I said “why did you Venmo underage girls?” He said “I never did that” then I remembered I should pull out my phone and record it, so I asked again and he ignored me after that lol
@the_transit_guy
When I go to Las Vegas for chess I’m always astounded by how hostile it is to pedestrians. It takes like 30 minutes to walk a mile in some places. You have to walk over numerous stairs and overpasses just to get anywhere.
I played in a USCF rated blitz tournament today and beat an IM! I don’t have the game sadly but I played this against him lol. I went 6/8 and tied for 1st.
