At least thirty-five journalists and writers have lost their lives in Mexico since 2006 and more writers die every year. How far would you go to keep your freedom to write and publish?

I never understood this first line to this phrase: " Then I can write a washing bill in Balylonic cuneiform And tell you every detail of Caractacus's uniform; In short, in matters vegetable, animal, and mineral I am the very model of a modern Major-General" What the heck is a 'washing bill' ? https://www.reddit.com/r/gilbertandsullivan/comments/2o9vyu/an_actual_washingbill_in_babylonic_cuneiform / Gives us an image of one.
