The switch from the .tv to .com kinda makes me sad for some strange reason… I just hope it’s not signaling a full end of an era (for me)…

While I do welcome some of these needed changes, I truly believe that using the rules to try and 'catch out' people who are "technically playing by the rules but are not in the spirit of the thing" is a futile endeavour. People who find loopholes will just find more loopholes. #eurovision
🗳️ #BREAKING - A series of proposed changes to the #Eurovision Song Contest have been announced by the EBU. Member stations will have until the General Assembly to decide if the package of reform can avoid a vote on Israel's expulsion from the Contest. #ESC2026
🗳️ Voting reforms proposed for Eurovision Song Contest from 2026

These rules will include reduced maximum votes, a wider-ranging jury and rules on how countries can or cannot promote their entry. Member stations will have until the General Assembly to decide if the package suits them and avoid a vote on Israel's expulsion from the Contest.

Yeah, so some of us don’t use dark mode because of astigmatism, whereas other people need dark mode for light sensitivity issues. It’s not always about preference. The “content warnings” jab also makes it seems like legit content warnings are frivolous….

The AI bubble may be about to bust.
Peter Thiel has sold all of his Nvidia stock.
We all need to say this very clearly:
NO BAILOUTS FOR THEFT-TECH!
Expropriate their asses instead.
They stole from all of us and fully plan to burn the planet.
They owe us - not the other way around. 1/3

The Duke of Wellington statue on Queen Street in Glasgow this morning, with a new take on the traditional road cone by The Rebel Bear. What you can't see from this shot is that the pigeon is doing what pigeons usually do on statues!
