in reply to @bigstuffedcat's post:

what i would do is: think for 20 mins, do a stupid move, lose in the next 2 turns for real tho(i am extremely bad at chess and this is probably a bad expl lol): rook to f6. no reason really, except safety from any moves for 2 turns i think guaranteed if not moving, closeness to the opposing king, still opportunity to protect your own?

say if this is rly stupid :)

Don't feel bad-- Rxf6 was the first thing I calculated in this position! Even though it loses even more material, to me it looked like I could force a draw, which is much better than I would expect down a rook. Unfortunately black can respond Qc1+, and retreating our rook to block the check isn't an option because our queen will be gobbled! We're forced to trade queens, and our hopes of scrambling for a sneaky checkmate are dashed; while we have practical chances thanks to our mighty d-pawn, objectively white is lost.
