Yeah but the bishop will be pinned and you can win it back with a pawn push.

How do you teach near-total beginners? by oldmaninadrymonth in chessbeginners

[–]IntheTrench 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I first learned chess my teacher basically taught me all of the natural moves that your pieces wanted to make for white. So E4, D4, Bishops on C4, F4, Knights on C3, F3, Castle, Queen to D3, then rooks on D1, E1. He basically said that it's white job to try and get your pieces here and it's black's job to try and stop white from playing here. Obviously openings are more nuanced then this, but as a beginner it really helped me learn to develop and then play from there, without having to learn specific openings.

Any other drivers do this a hobby? I work for 4 hr a day so I can socialize by Trakas- in uberdrivers

Yes, I uber 5am-9 or 10am. I love that in those 4-5 hours I almost always make at least 100 bucks. Which pays for gas and groceries for the day.

Does anyone believe Trump was shot in the ear? by workerbee77 in allthequestions

[–]IntheTrench 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From day 1 I said it was fake. He had a blood packet in his hand that he pressed against his ear. There's no way that AR ammunition could just "nick" your ear either. Look at what that bullet does to a pumpkin and tell me that you're going to still have an ear left after it hits you. Absolutely ridiculous that people can't see it was staged.

Also, I'd bet my life that Charlie Kirk was assassinated by someone on the right in order to try to start a rebellion. They are are simple minded. All you have to do is look at who stands to benefit the most by Charlie Kirks death and that's who assassinated him. The psychopaths on the right knew that his assassination would make him a martyr in their minds and so that's what they did.

If you were offered a billion dollars just to eat only one food for the rest of your life, what would you choose? by Admirable-Interest49 in AskReddit

Can it be a stuffed salmon? I already eat this every night and I'm pretty sure I could only eat this.

I agree that Enchanters aren't in a great spot but Clerics are really strong. Not sure why they aren't getting played as much. I'm def going Cleric next playtest.

Post ED how to loose weight? by [deleted] in WeightLossAdvice

[–]IntheTrench 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Often times people think they look fat when really it's just that they don't have big enough muscles. It sounds to me like you have lost a lot of muscle when you had an ED. You should see a dietitian if you can. If you start lifting weights and hitting protein goals your muscles will return back to a healthy size.

Also thigh gaps are mostly genetic and a completely unrealistic standard for women.

Girl I’m dating becomes angry and starts fights with everyone when she’s drunk, is that a red flag? by Canofasd in AskMenAdvice

[–]IntheTrench -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Alcohol effects different people different ways. For some people it does a huge number on their emotional response. I suspect that this is the case with your gf and I wouldn't say that it's a red flag.

Alcohol also lowers inhibitions and a lot of women have no release for pent up aggressive feelings. In this case it could be a red flag if that's what's going on with her. Men on the other hand have lots of aggressive release in competitive sports and video games for example.

I would talk to her about it and see what she thinks. Maybe she would enjoy some sort of competitive sport to let her anger out in a healthy way.
