BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 30/04/2025Chess move of the week. It’s the result of a Queen’s Gambit vs. the Albin Counter Gambit. Most players will take the free bishop, but when the pawn takes on f2 with check, the king cannot take back because the Queen will hang. If pawn takes on e2, Qh4 check is coming. There are traps everywhere. 020

BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 02/04/2025One of our Texas state representatives unironically quoting Joseph Goebbels — the man behind Hitler’s propaganda machine, and arguably a necessary factor in his rise to power — is beyond alarming. This puts Elmo’s Nazi salute to shame. www.reddit.com/r/texas/s/8Y...reddit.comFrom the texas community on Reddit: Rep. Keith Self (TX-3) quoted Joseph Goebbels, H*tlers propagandist, during a congressional hearing. This is my representative. You can't make this s#!t up.Explore this post and more from the texas community 011

BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 03/02/2025Chess move of the day. I get this all the time out of the Jobava London opening. One of my favorite queen traps. 110

BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 27/01/2025It’s tough making new friends in your 40’s, but then I remember my dog and cat are besties, so anything’s possible 🐶 🐱 💙! 030
BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 26/01/2025Brilliant chess move of the week👇 Small things can make a big difference in high level games. This move only gains me a pawn (with perfect counter play from black), but strips black’s castle rights, and allows for infiltration creating game-winning threats that eventually overwhelm black’s position 020

BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 02/12/2024A perfect visual metaphor for his entire being; a perpetual effort to hide an ugly truth so thinly veiled that it boggles the mind there are those who can’t see through it. 381

BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Any chess players out there? I pulled a nice brilliant move in my morning game. That queen is toast 🔥 170
BlueDotCountry @bluedotcountry.bsky.social · 30/11/2024I’ve always been fascinated by weather (and photographing it). These are mammatus clouds, typically associated with a weakening severe storm. Cool, descending air interacts with the warmer rising air around the center of the cell, resulting in the creation of small pockets. 1141
