Learning #chess, but still not very good

Leftist, but don't want to discuss politics here. My favorite podcast is #TheDollop. Always learning to be a better ally -- help me out!

Remember to vote today if you're in the US and voting for Kamala.

Made it past my Book 7 wall for Wheel of Time on my 3rd series read attempt.

Definitely feeling the bloat. Some big things happened in this book but there was so much filler and repetition with many characters just ignored.

Man things sure do suck in the US.

Finished FFXIV Stormblood, trying to catch up for Dawntrail. Oof, the patch MSQ content between expansions isn't compelling when you weren't playing live and it came during a lull in MSQ content.

Trump LOSES his renewed motion to recuse Justice Merchan from presiding over his New York criminal trial.

The judge quickly DENIES Trump's motion from the bench before the beginning of jury selection.

I'm interested in taking another run at FFXIV but their account and platform licensing system is so convoluted and confusing. Especially since I cannot do the free content on an account that was linked to older purchased games/expansions. Sigh.

Kramer bursts into Jerry’s apartment, wearing an Apple Vision Pro headset. “Jerry, I’ve entered the next dimension!” he proclaims, narrowly missing the coffee table.

Jerry, skeptical. "Kramer, how much did that set you back?"

"Jerry, I found the perfect solution. I'm renting out my apartment on Airbnb to cover the cost!"

Jerry, eyebrows raised, sets down his coffee. "You're renting out your place? Where are you sleeping?"

"Oh baby, with spatial computing?! I’m never sleeping again Jerry!”

No matter what I change, my Messages notifications are showing as silenced on my iPhone... why is the Focus feature so complicated and buggy?

Anyone know what to do? All the help pages on this seem to be AI-generated nonsense.
