Guy on lichess had a Netanyahu themed username so I checkmated them with a pawn
A chess position - the long and short of it is that black has castled and is up a lot of material, whereas white's king is exposed in the middle of the board with nothing. Black also has mate in one after black moved king to f4.


More detailed: White has a king on f4 (lmao), a queen on a4 a rook on a1, a bishop on c1, a knight on d2, and pawns on a2, b3, c4, e4, f3, and h2. Black has a king on g8, a queen on g1, rooks on a8 and f8, bishops on d7 and e7, knights on c6 and f6, pawns on a7, b7, c7, d6, f7, g7, and h7. Black plays pawn g5, mate.

Took some time off and made a match pack out of PAC's record-breaking reign as the 20th Open The Brave Gate champion (2010-2011). Only 1 match is missing (V1 against K-ness) since AFAIK there's no full footage of it available. A true legend. archive.org/details/dg-2... #DRAGONGATE 🤼
Screenshot of PAC celebrating with WORLD-1 after defeating Susumu Yokosuka and being crowned new Open The Brave Champion at the final of the Open The Brave Gate title tournament that took place in Hakata Starlanes in Fukuoka, Japan (venue doesn't exist anymore).

A two-panel meme from the movie Up. First panel: old man pinning a pin on a young Boy Scout, with dialogue “I would like to award you the highest honor I can bestow”. In this version, the old man is labelled “me”, and the boy is labelled “Mike Tomlin”. Second panel: a shot of the boy’s scout badge sash, which in the movie reveals that the old man pinned on a grape soda cap. In this version, the cap is labelled “autism diagnosis”. Description ends.

A fun thing about Madden 27 is that sometimes it gives you a glimpse of the Ref Creature, a combination of every ref model in the game at once
Screenshot from Madden showing a referee on the field, shown from the side, with multiple models mixed together, including a white male face with a brown beard, both brown and grey hair, a ponytail, a black left arm, and a hat which is white at the front and black at the back. Description ends.

#Thread 🧵: Now that there's no more risk of it causing any harm to PAC and WWE is trying to exploit his death solely for the purposes of wrestling war bullshit, everyone needs to know the extent to which WWE ratfucked PAC in 2018-2019 to try to destroy his livelihood by fucking with his work visa.

Emi Sakura's post about PAC is breaking my heart
The first time I spoke with him was in Ireland in 2018. When you're living in an English-speaking country, Japanese suddenly reaches your ears in a startling way. Our conversations always started with his "Otsukaresamade-su." Backstage, I wouldn't sense his presence at all, but then those words would arrive right by my ear like the wind. And so I'd search for him. There's no English phrase that translates it just right—its meaning encompasses hello, long time no see, glad to see you, good work, goodbye, good night, see you later, and all sorts of other things rolled into one. I think it's the kind of greeting that comes from the way he's confronted pro wrestling in Japan. It's time. As always, I grab my bag and climb into the car. I can't believe the show goes on. Today and from here on out, forever, I know I'll keep straining to listen. Thank you, PAC.

Cassidy has, by far, the highest hit rate of getting my non-wrestling-fan friends interested in wrestling, and Pac did a phenomenal job of communicating the whole concept of Cassidy on the larger stage here. And think how important Cassidy’s been to the company since!

Screenshot from Wikipedia reading:

In late 1973 or early 1974, Carlos cut his hair short and began sporting a "bandit" mustache. He visited a thrift store and purchased several comfortable suits and about 20 white cotton dress shirts. The new wardrobe was inexpensive, looked good, and was comfortable.[17]
