We start with Tweet of the month:
It comes from chess GM Hikaru, purporting to be from his chess team, and posted by his trainer. Hikaru is American of Japanese family and has his own unique sense of humour.
"This is Hikaru’s Second. No stream today because Hikaru is not allowed to play internet games until he finishes his daily workout - he needs to do 1,000 rook lifts, 1,000 knight forks, 1,000 bishop snipes, and 1,000 en passants. It doesn’t look like he’ll finish his daily workout before Bullet Brawl - maybe Tuesday he’ll finish his workout in time for Titled Tuesday. Signed, Team Mysterio".
[Original post read 1,000 en peasants, which is also funny but I’ve amended it, to its intended chess meaning, I hope. TR.]

500 horses run at Cheltenham, 28 go on to win, my bets will be placed on some of the other 472.

Philosophers have spoken about what it is to be human. Some have said it’s our ability to love, others that it is our consciousness. Turns out they are wrong.
It’s our ability to tick all the boxes with a motorcycle in them…
