Game 654354 - Two huge blunders in a row. Number one: I decide to put my queen en prise. Number two: My opponent resigns instead of snatching the queen.

This is definitely a game to watch,it's a blood bath (trying a very aggressive counterattack as black🙄).
At move 31 I did my last one,preparing for being checkmated with 32.Qh7#,but my opponent............see for yourself! Game 593564

1. I thought my rook was lined up to protect.. d'oh Game 849952

2. I kept saying "don't move the queen, don't move the queen..." then I move the queen Game 849725

Ouch, after seeing those two games, I'm surprised you didn't just stab yourself, and I thought I was bad when it came to blundering. . . PS: You seem to have a slight problem overlooking simple queen support mates, this is often a problem with very new players, under 1200 rating, but for you, I don't know what to say. . .

I'm slightly ahead in material here and thinking my chances are looking good 🙂
My opponent threatens my rook. I decide to simply move it out of the way and... Ahh **@(% !!!

Remember when you first started playing here and thought you could beat almost anyone? My rude awakening came at the hands of "ssbljk" in game Game 710490 where I was outplayed in many little ways, even after scouting ssbljk's game against "museo" which is a must see, a real gem of 2004. Look how much black has accomplished after five moves. If Fischer has a recurring dream of what could have been vs. Karpov '75, this is it, every night in Bobby's deep irrational slumber playing white...Game 694165 hehe!
