    Do you have lots of tree-lined roads outside of cities as well?

  2. I was reading about the chess master who died with 29. It’s very sad, it seems like he was universally beloved, but horrendously bullied by an asshole former GM who couldn’t bear that he wasn’t winning that much anymore and started to blame everyone of cheating. I don’t know what the cause of death is, but it is still very awful. Chess seems to be quite prone to such stuff. I mean we all laughed at the vibrating butt plug (or lack thereof) scandal a few years ago, but this level of bullying and harassment is really terrible and I hope it doesn’t go unpunished.

    It is so dark outside. It’s getting harder and harder to get my ass out of the door in the morning. I don’t know why people like autumn.
