If Trump wins it will not at all be good for my mental health

"or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof". Seems clear-cut to me.

So there's an amendment, which is pretty straight-forwardly applicable to Trump after the Capitol riots, that should prohibit him from holding office.
... and betting markets don't seem to give a single fuck. I'm a bit surprised because the courts didn't treat Trump so nicely last time

And yes I've been on the phone all day because that's where I play chess because tennis elbow.
Or rather, used to play. I don't play anymore.

Who'd have thought that I'd get so many calls that they get annoying just through the annotation in do-not-disturb mode

21. ◯/W playing another game was very stupid but I did well. I think I need to phase out chess again soon
This album is really cool. Like it a lot more than I expected.

And the degree to which ◯s and Ms cluster together strongly suggests that I could do a lot by not playing after Ms

I don't know if this is true, but I feel like the correlation between ◯ and W is way weaker than it should be, and for some reason I've just been way more lucky in games where I blunder.

That was very lucky, I started playing poorly, and it just worked out anyway.
Also the universe thought it was funny letting me go to 1799 first and then giving me a draw. If that person had had just a tiny bit more rating, it would have been +1 instead of 0.

Wins are good to avoid frustration but too many wins lead to overconfidence

Actual new day!
1. ◯/L (got unlucky but some bad luck was actually overdue)
2. ◯/W (1867 opponent who also blitzes out opening moves? NO PROBLEM. Well actually that was very close and pretty lucky, but still.)

This was how it was supposed to be from the start; the M is only for mistakes that I should almost never make, like hanging a pawn with lots of time or getting a piece trapped or missing an easy tactic. I don't even count hanging a pawn later in the game when things are stressful.

Ok, best case scenario. I get the 10 ◯s and I don't have to be mad about the draw because the winning streak was ruined anyway.

1. Split brain patients have unified visual fields
2. As demonstrated by Grossberg in excruciating detail, there is tons of processing happening that integrates information between both hemispheres
3. Therefore, visual qualia is computed by non-synaptic effects.
Specifically for #2, what's been demonstrated is that information from both halves of the visual field are integrated, and the left half is said to be processed by the right hemisphere and vice-versa
