Kramnik should be held accountable for making Danya's life hell the past year. Not blaming him for what has happened but this bullying has to stop. It was clear to me and many others that he started attacking Danya because he was a "Russian boy" who did not defend him when Hikaru mocked Kramnik. I'm really upset now so maybe not making much sense.

I'm heartbroken. It's been a few years since I met him in person but loved watching him on his streams. He was such a ray of light beloved by all. Like others I noted with alarm his appearance and strange behavior the past few months. Hope his family finds peace.

Kramnik went from chess champion who really came up with new lines in the Berlin defense, beating Kasparov at his peak: to now becoming a troll :(

Two of the most humble, kind, professional players. And a great match.

Congrats to Ding but brutal for Nepo. Had a winning position in game 12, and rushed that move in game 14 when Rc3? would have been winning. Winning the candidates tournament twice is such a huge feat, not sure if he can win again to challenge.

Focus on being fulfilled. Learn to surround yourself with people who love you. Have a rich and varied life. What is excellence at work really worth in terms of utility? So you don't make VP or CTO or something. Think about what it is you really really want out of life.

Meh, we are going to keep drinking anyway

Oh my gosh, I thought he passed away.

I can sympathize. I had a seed fall into my eye while out on a walk and it wouldn't come out. Had to to to the ophthalmologist. She did local drops and took it out with forceps. It was uncomfortable and scary but she did a great job at calming me down and doing it quickly. I do think eye doctors have this kind of thing down and folks needn't worry anymore.

My kids 8 and 7 go to the Russian math after school program in Cupertino. So far, there's nothing 'Russian' about it. Its just regular math.

IM checking in. My cousin became a GM while still a teenager. There will come a point sometime in your life (for me that was the ripe old age of 14 or 15) when you realize that you are simply not smart enough to make the cut. When that point come, the best thing to do is bail, play for fun and focus on academics.

This is SO beautiful!!! Wonderfully done. All the best from my 2 girls to yours. I'll have mine read it.

This isn't seizure. They violated the warrant. This is simple theft.

The owners are greedy excuses for human beings. But let's also not forget UEFA or FIFA who are acting like they are the good guys. They are garbage as well. The whole system needs reform. Can't stop with just the cancelation of the Super League.

Really worried for my parents and other relatives. They are being as safe as possible but the virus is everywhere now and not sure if they will be able to avoid it. What a tragedy that people just didn't mask up and avoid gatherings when the vaccines were so close.
