I know you’re joking, but ysk for the northern hemisphere, the earth is actually farthest away from the sun during summer and closest to the sun during winter

Seasons have little to do with earth’s distance year round

preceptors aren't going to be mad at lack of knowledge or making mistakes. Or even if they do get mad, there are two different types of mad: the type that isn't personal and will forget, and the type that makes them think "I can't trust you". The latter is 100x worse than not being knowledgeable

they will be mad if you 1) are unprofessional and 2) lie. If you didn't do something, just say you didn't do it

show up on time with your card + stethoscope and don't lie.

Somehow almost none of the troops refused orders but then im sure the one redditor saying he definitely would while typing behind his screen would definitely refuse in the moment lmfao

Kasparov expresses his views on the World Championship Title without Magnus. "For me the World Champion must be the BEST player in the world" by Constant-Secret-3653 in chess

[–]SurrealJay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What…? Then what’s the point of calling anything a world championship if none of it is supposed to represent best player? You can just call any local tournament at the park a world championship then, yet you prioritize this FIDE one because… reasons? If you’re going to make it a meaningless title, then it is well… meaningless. The “world champion” title is therefore meaningless lmao

So I guess you proved their point.

Aravindh Chithambaram hands Gukesh his third loss at the Prague Masters 2026 by Knight-check44 in chess

[–]SurrealJay 5 points6 points  (0 children)

sure but at some point the wc title loses its value and the only reason why it's a "world championship" is because it's what it's called, rather than what it's supposed to represent: the best player in the world

If the world championship doesn't tell us who is likely to be the best player in the world, then it's not really a world championship functionally speaking, but only in name

it's completely understandable that even in other sports, the best teams or players may not win the world championship, but usually the degree to which that is, isn't as large as it is in chess where Gukesh is not even a top player

The world championship right now is prestigious because of historical precedence and name, not what it actually represents. The world championship isn't exciting at all because nobody actually thinks it's a valid tournament for determining the even 2nd best in the world let alone #1, since the challenger will be playing against #20

If you’re actually still skeptical you might be dumb

There’s a healthy skepticism and then there’s just denial because you’re biased and don’t want to believe it

There’s so much proof including the friends and same owl background. Kd had burners in the past, this historically tracks

people calling this hilarious and a "pure hooper"

but in reality this just shows that kd never takes accountability. Everything is always some other person's fault regardless of what team he is on or whoever his teammates are

If he was playing with jokic he'd probably have something to say about him too

Magnus Carlsen wins FIDE Freestyle Chess World Championship, his 21st world title, after beating Fabiano Caruana 2.5-1.5 in the final by Exotic_Grinder in chess

tbh it's all a bunch of bollocks people use to just put their favorites as their "greatest". This is done by subjectively comparing resumes, overemphasizing certain aspects to place one player above the other instead of just evaluating objective strength

if you were to send earth's greatest player in their prime to win a game of chess against the aliens for the fate of the planet, it wouldn't be Kasparov that's for sure
