For bonus hilarity, this means something like "to scheme maliciously in the shadows" in Chinese.

I suppose there's literally no way they'll change the law so Aiko can take the throne while they change the laws to allow for the abdication?

...Is Naruhito dying of something and I missed the memo?

Edit: oh, I assume you mean "gently caress it, may as well change two rules at once".

On the plus this got me to google Naruhito. :3: Water nerd, road nerd, AND viola player?

Pretty much every premodern culture was fine with being gay if you were an elite man. Modern sexual morality is just that, a product of the modern period, as I understand it.

I read somewhere that in renaissance Italy the prevailing idea was that gay sex was actually strictly superior to hetero sex, because the female body was an inferior derivation of the male one

My favorite Renaissance Italy homosexual-relations story was that a cardinal in Venice (?) got real worried about the increasing popularity of male prostitutes, so he lobbied for female prostitutes to be able to advertise their wares visually in public. :haw:

I can TOTALLY see Japan launching a massive defensive campaign to keep secret fishpeople from encroaching on their shores.

sri lankan prime minister / former prime minister, depending on exactly when his resignation goes into effect

SL's been schmoozing anyone who will give them the time of day but especially Japan, so he might actually be legitimately sad about Abe getting shot, for reasons that aren't just his own personal security and his own personal wallet

I don't think any country that still uses hanging uses anything other than the long-drop method, it's not exactly a novel innovation. The English came up with it around 1872, says Wikipedia.

Iran at least sometimes gets lazy and doesn't use drop tables.
