Daniel McLaury @danielmclaury.bsky.social · 29/08/2026Very strange #chess position. Black to move. 141

Daniel McLaury @danielmclaury.bsky.social · 20/06/2026I know it's not exactly Candyman or Malcolm X, but it's the first movie I ever bought my own ticket for. 1132
Daniel McLaury @danielmclaury.bsky.social · 06/06/2026I'm told this plant is called the "Ohio Spiderwort" 000
