I would sit in a chair in my back yard, listen to the wind chimes and birds, and watch all of the wildlife just living their life. In essence, I'd spend the hour in mindfulness.

If black can't move and they're not in check, it's not checkmate; it's stalemate. But OP clarified that the white piece is a queen and not a king, and that's what makes it checkmate, since she is checking the king.

That's a queen, got it. I'm on mobile and they both looked like kings. Thanks for the explanation.

I may be dumb (I am), but isn't this stalemate?

Most oil (like, 99% of it, IIRC) is from decayed plant matter, not animal matter.

This legitimately is science, though. A scientist is characterized by their willingness to change their mind when confronted with new evidence. It's so contrary to the normal human response that we named it.

I think it's sarcasm, mate, but I could be wrong
