Man, that'd be a damn good "three older guys shooting the shit in a man cave" podcast.

Yanis Varoufakis accidentally gets his head in the frame when snapping a photo of the lads.

Xi is clearly the cool RA who parties harder than you and only does his duty after he warned you to hide the bong before "random inspection."

Honestly? That room would be way better without putin there. He’s going to be the guy who smiles and says nothing all night and when you try talking to him, he’ll look at you like you’re crazy for even approaching him. Major buzzkill.

Xi otoh is probably the guy downing fifths while reciting the latest five year plan.

The sleep-over Trump wishes he had.

“Hit unpause while he’s in the bathroom and charge your attack meter,” suggests Putin while Xi overhears, unamused.

Multipolarity boys' night!

(So, who ships Xi/Kim, and who ships this threesome? Come on, it's in no worse taste than Lenin/Stalin or Brezhnev/Honecker or (my OTP) Nazhezda/Rosa.)

I wish the "socialist kiss" was still traditional and practiced, that Brezhnev/Honecker pic is everything and I desperately want an Xi/Kim one to also exist. (I don't even go for men. I just find old commie yaoi funny and that makes it hot in a "someone else might be turned on by that, and I'm happy for the happy couple" way.)

Playing EDH with proxies they printed on cardstock and taped to bits of cardboard.

That's {my boys that| (Putin: critical support)} were laughing just out of frame!
