2·21 days agoThis dude looks like Matt Mercer.
Right? I’m sure he expected to immediately be a god at chess with no studying or practice, then got upset when that wasn’t the case.

2·3 months agoWell damn, I guess they’re taking some liberties with the classification of “dinosaurs” and are still off by a bit. I’m just going to remove the post.
