i'll go first: our 17th prime minister one day vanished while swimming in the ocean and not only did none of his friends give a fuck, they started slapfighting immediately for who's gonna be his successor. no joke they didn't even let his body turn cold before the arguments began it was all so fucking funny.

Defenestration is a fun word. Sounds emasculating if you don't know what it means. There's a lot of balustrades and mezzanines where oligarchs and their political class servants like to hang out, I hope everyone is mindful to keep their balance and avoid accidents.
