Belvidere 30 – Yesterdays Image from Library of Virginia, 1965 Richmond Esthetic Survey and Historic Building Survey.

I mapped a whole collection of Oregon Hill from the 1960s and could not figure out what church was in the background of this picture yesterdays.maprva.org/224/

Once I did, the pic of the fire was one of the first related images I could find. More info here: www.oregonhill.net/2012/01/21/l...

Richmond Country Club – Yesterdays Image from Virginia Commonwealth University, Rarely Seen Richmond.

We take our maps pretty seriously 🧐

This one was included in a Richmond collection... just not the right Richmond yesterdays.maprva.org/16610/

This was also included, but it's Richfield Springs, NY, not Richmond, VA yesterdays.maprva.org/32972/

And there's this one yesterdays.maprva.org/32922/

Burning Church – Yesterdays Image from The Valentine, Richmond Times-Dispatch Photograph Collection.

Have you seen the pic from this same spot/time looking the other direction? One of a raft of (presumably civil rights-related) arsons on Richmond churches in the 1960s.

My mistake. I was thinking of one of the procedural votes that Vance showed for but didn’t end up being needed.

An old podcast I used to listen to would report on the number of Wikipedia pages in each fight card…

Exactly 50% is…. Not good!

Catcher is also set up kinda tall and raises his glove to catch the ball. All things that could factor subconsciously

Oh yeah I actually defend Pedro on this a lot. But in this case I had to defend manny’s good name, so the rest of it kinda didn’t matter.

That was Pedro. Manny had his own behavior issues though.

Am I the only person who noticed the laser dot being shined on the back of the cops as they walk away? The cops turn around right after it.

This is wild, considering the fact that Florida’s board of governors decided Michigan’s president was too woke to be UF’s president

Lol that’s more or less what I meant. I’ve never visited the subreddit intentionally, but always get drawn in through recommended posts… like that one!

He’s also currently the top rated rapid and blitz player too. He’s still so good, it’s insane.

(You probably know this, already, just sharing for the OP)

Yeah, that’s the stage he’s at now for sure. He’s fighting against FIDE and also any of the young talents who are coming through and potentially taking him down.

But also, again unlike Conor, it’s all just dumb? At least it’s not criminal

FIDE World Top Chess players

He hasn’t given up on classical chess. He has given up on the classical chess world championship. He’s still the #1 rated classical player in the world!

But importantly, unlike McGregor, he had sustained success for a long time in a way few others ever have. And he remains one of, if not the, most talented chess player in the world today.

02.06.2025 16:51 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Unlike Conor, he was actually the greatest, for a decade+, successfully defending the title every time. He won the world championship at 22, defended it for a decade, and has been rated #1 for basically 15 straight years.

(As an mma fan and chess follower, I feel like this post is my calling)
