I may be dumb (I am), but isn't this stalemate?
-
No, because the white queen is actively putting the black king in check.

That's a queen, got it. I'm on mobile and they both looked like kings. Thanks for the explanation.

Black can't move either way, so it's check mate.
-
If black can't move and they're not in check, it's not checkmate; it's stalemate. But OP clarified that the white piece is a queen and not a king, and that's what makes it checkmate, since she is checking the king.

Oh well, I have been playing this game all wrong then.

Thought that was a king. Thought it was a stalemate as well
