Sounds like a good time for nearly everyone involved. Just what we need to lift out spirits in these trying times.
Ivan Turgenev's "Execution of Troppmann" is a short essay, published in 1870, that gives a first-hand account of the writer attending a public execution in Paris. Turgenev's details how the drunk, unruly crowd turned a somber moment into a carnival. A deeply moving essay; I encourage you to read it.

βAmerica provides unlimited weaponry and total impunity for relentless rampages of death and destruction; European leaders make sad faces and say boo-hooβ was already the automatic, every-time situation in the early 2010s, back when Europeans still bothered pretending to be shocked and outraged.

Thank them for what, being bad at their jobs? Bunch of losers.
Tillis: "In about a week and half, we're gonna get a plaque on the wall in the Capitol thank the Capitol police officers and all the agencies that responded on January 6. All those thugs have been pardoned, and yet we haven't thanked the Capitol police officers for their work."
