So both Wolverine and Sabertooth are back? I dropped off comics aftee they dies. What should I read to catch up.

House of X/Powers of X, then X-Men by Hickman, Mauraders by Duggan and eventually Hellions by Wells (it launched after the other too) you can also read the other post HoXPoX books, those are just my favorites and X-Men and Mauraders are probably the most important for story reasons.

Here's a full reading order, you do not have to read everything.

With the exception of Fallen Angels I've enjoyed all of the books to various degrees. If you're specifically interested in Wolverine then his solo title and X-Force are the two books he's in the most. and they occasionally sorta cross over with each other

Mm, well, Sabertooth is alive. Buried alive, that is ("trapped in a state of permanent stasis for the rest of his life, while completely conscious and mentally aware"), for breaking laws that didn't exist when he broke them.
Krakoa might be a utopia, but it isn't nice.

In fairness the law he broke was "don't kill humans."

Sabertooth. Don't worry he was found guilty by a jury of his peers who also kill a fuckload of humans on the reg!

The difference is when they asked Wolverine to stop he said 'OK' and sabertooth said 'lol no whatre you gonna do about it'

Sabertooth. Logan is still walking around, though the new official X-Men team (that premiered just last week) has the better Wolverine on it. Logan Wolverine is still in X-Force and his own series.

Mutants have killed a bunch of humans (in like self defense and what not, not murder) since that was made one of the 3 official rules Krakoa with no personal repercussions. I'd put money on Sabretooth coming back in the next crossover.

Yeah, the Krakoan resurrection protocols have a secret restriction for as of yet unexplained reasons: no precogs. They've been giving Mystique the runaround about Destiny for this entire status quo and she's finally had enough. If she can't have her wife back, she's taking down the whole thing.

When a white man in the 60's says something about jungles, it's probably racist.

Oh no, "The Lion Sleeps Tonight"!

"The Lion Sleeps Tonight" was loosely translated from a song in isiZulu called "Mbube" by a black South African guy named Solomon Linda. The US publishing company for the English-language version ripped him off and didn't pay him any royalties, and he died in poverty shortly thereafter. So it wasn't racist in a textual sense, but it was pretty loving racist in a business sense.

In this case it's both (depending on how you define jargon) but sometimes it's actually legit. I've seen a few derails where someone thought Jungle Music was making similar slurs but that's an actual music genre from the 90s.

that was a fun derail lol

That whole issue is pretty fantastic - it has a massive dupe brawl as Madrox fights a rogue dupe.

It also establishes that Weird Al exists on the Marvel Universe.

I'll assume you mean the issue as a whole because a guy with a kangeroo schtick and a hankerin' for Vegemite isn't exactly shattering Aussie stereotypes.

Side note: which Jack O' Lantern is that in the background? Haven't been following Spider-Man comics in a long time but my impression over the decades is that there have been a confusing number of Jack O' Lanterns (who are also sometimes Hobgoblins!).
