Looks like the error's been fixed, but there's no mention in the article that Vikman's nationality has been corrected. ๐Ÿคจ

Eighty years ago, we victored over an autocratic regime that dismantled people's freedoms, committed the mass murder of minority peoples, and annexed territory that wasn't theirs. If this sounds too familiar to our modern politics, we must ask: what have we actually learnt from the Second World War?

Look. Devon. Cornwall. I get that you're both very passionate about which way the jam and the cream goes on a scone. But if you two can't ever agree, the only conclusion I can make is that it doesn't matter.

From in front of the camera to behind the microphone, Mede has now become an inseparable part of Eurovision royalty.

Hi.
Im autistic.

We exist.
We are here.
We are different.

We just want to exist.

my new theory is that once you have a certain amount of money and wealth you start to go crazy and detach from reality. that number is different for everyone. for me it's $20

If you want to play a bit of fantasy Eurovision, there's still a few spots left in this edition of @escsky.bsky.social! Check out the link in the quoted post to see which countries are left for the pickings.

I'm representing Ireland! ๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡ช

We need more art, history and social science about autism and less genetic studies.

I shared this on the Eurovision subreddit yesterday and we all ended up debating its accuracy and methodology, which was fun!

Although people might just bet on and subsequently vote for the frontrunner, because one might assume: hey, easy money.

In a white man's hand is a film point and shoot camera, held portrait, with a sticker of anthropomorphic black, green, and white film canister stuck just beneath the viewfinder at the right of the camera, and beneath the film window at the top of the film door.

It was an absolute pleasure to meet the folks at @ilfordphoto.com @harmanphoto.co.uk at the Photography and Video Show this weekend, and an even greater pleasure to steal a sticker from them! But I've pasted it to my Nikon AF-230, so I assure you all I'm making good use of it.

Do you reckon that the Melfest jury might consider the semi-final televote-only voting system and how well it might do with the public when casting their votes?

They've gone from having the first song to be released to possibly having the last, so it's very evident to me that France TV is thinking hard about their strategy for this.

It would split the country vote with the UK, mind.

I hope Rai changes their minds on this. It's because of Sanremo that Italy gets such great representatives for Eurovision, which brings the entire contest into much greater repute too.

Hot take: Messy by Lola Young is actually a song about patriarchy.

I'm convinced that KFC isn't what it used to be. The chicken pieces are smaller yet cost more, the batter has less flavour, and it's covered in grease โ€“ in fact, the only thing that hasn't changed is how watery the soda is. Way to sell your goodwill.

That was honestly a lot less worse than I was expecting, and the six 'hell's are probably just... me discussing Eurovision this morning?
