Good reply thanks @jose1122.
Blitz games are far beyond me yet. I still blunder like crazy in Rapid and run out of time. I think I need to stick to classical to get into practice at thinking combinations out. When I get better maybe I can go back to Rapid, although Rapid (or Blitz if you are really fast() is good for testing out openings and learning what opponents throw at you in given openings.
Can you tell me how to link games like you did above? That would be handy.

You just have to copy and paste the link of the game, but instead of the raw link, you first go to the analysis sector, and then each move has an specific link, this is the link you have to paste, a simple paste with nothing else
Plus I also have another good recommendation, I'd highly recommend you to leave the sacred icons alone, Jesus Christ came to this Orb to reveal His Sacred Face, His Sacred Face is also printed in the Holy Shroud and in the Veronica's Veil, we are 100% allowed to represent the image of the Son and the Saints after God showed Himself personally.
Don't worry @jose1122,
"Ikonoclast" is simply a gaming nickname. My reference is to RTS (Real Time Strategy) gaming where one is simply smashing icons made of pixels on a computer screen. It's mainly a joke about that. I don't go around smashing real religious icons. There is a secondary reference to not adopting "shibboleths" and "idols", which is a reasonable principle from humanist and religious viewpoints. And also a reference to not promoting a false image of oneself online. But mostly, it's light-hearted. I hope I don't take myself too seriously.
I used to play Cossacks, Total Annihilation, Starcraft, Supreme Commander and Cossacks 2 which I even modded a bit (parameter modding not major reprogramming). But those games were about super-fast clicking, except my mod which attempted more strategic and tactical realism. Imagine my shock when I took up chess again, hoping to get time to think, and I found people playing blitz and bullet. That's too fast for me.
