A puzzle, to me at least. I thought Stockfish was all-knowing. Here the fish tells me I should save the knight instead of castling. I assumed I should ditch the knight and castle, because if I don't I certainly lose one rook and probably the other as well. Can you help? #chess

An aside to my previous post. I'd recommend something like Linktree as your email signature etc. I was once convinced that Medium was the right fit for me so used a page on there as my 'fixed link' as it were. A landing page. Which I'm still using, but I've otherwise given up on Medium for poetry.

I set up this page as a test. I'm considering Opol, but can find nothing about it on the web - no reviews etc, from other sources. See thoughts below. But any thoughts about Opol? Any thoughts from poets or poetry readers, specifically, on Opol?

Hastings People's Party activists are working with others to see if there is an appetite to stand a community-based candidate for the only local election we're likely to see until 2027 (given 're-organisation' in our area, aka 'closing down local democracy'). Oct 16th 7pm @ The Hastings Centre

So, Sunday Times runs with latest poll showing Farage winning if there was an election now. But makes NO mention of Reform’s collusion with Russia. And this is how democracy gets beaten to death in the dark. Voters are not being told the truth. Reform is given the stage but is NEVER held to account.
