The world chess championship is being played in the UAE this year. Fivethirtyeight has interesting coverage. It's the most accurate match ever played in the championship, which means it's also the most boring match for all non-masters.

All due to the Biden/Clinton/Obama Cabal.

Imagine that. The world's tallest building isn't connect to the sewerage system.

Mswati III just bought himself a new jet, an Airbus 340. Reports say his total expenditure for the jet, refurbishment, and a new hanger is E2.7 billion, appx. $180 million. This motherfucker has a death wish and I certainly hope the citizens of Swaziland grant him that, preferably publicly, on a guillotine. I know a decent carpenter who can knock together a tumbrel cart. What a fucking asshole.

Of course the interior is tacky as shit.
Yeah well that's just, like, your opinion, man.
