Start with Qe6, threatening to win the c4 pawn. If b3 is played, then Qe4 is strong and threatening mate. White can move Qb2 but then a4, opening up the a file for the rook is strong. Qb3 runs into the same Qe4, even worse than if b3 is played. White has attacking chances in this position.

the only thing wrong in this world is chesskid tho

I think Qe6 is stopped by Rd4, same with Qc6, which is basically the same idea. I was analyzing Bh7, but Nh4 might stop Qg6, depends on how effective the g pawn push would be at getting rid of the knight. It looks fine though.

Oh, and if Qe6, Rd4, Qe2, white has R1d2...I think. Nd3 after that looks interesting though.

insane

well it wants a battery, I think Bh7. I was thinking about Nh4 but then g5, still, looks pretty hard to me

Bh7 or Qb6

After looking more at the position, Bh7 is better as it preserves the bishop while retaining attacking chances for white.
