realizing that sticking to the "do it bad" "do it scared" mentality implies theres also a "do it bored"
The Eurovision song contest is facing intense scrunity and accusations of discrimination after it rebuked Swedish-Palestinian pop star Eric Saade for wearing a Palestinian scarf in the opening act of the semi-finals. Saade, whose father is of Palestinian origin, kicked off the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo, Sweden on Tuesday evening with a keffiyeh, a traditional Palestinian and Arab male headdress, wrapped around his wrist. [...] In response, the organisers of the contest, European Broadcasting Union (EBU) released a statement saying it "regretted" that Saade wore the scarf. "The Eurovision Song Contest is a live TV show. All performers are made aware of the rules of the contest, and we regret that Eric Saade chose to compromise the non-political nature of the event," it said. [...] Eurovision later posted clips of the performances of the other two opening acts on its social media pages, but did not share Saade’s, prompting social media users to share the performance on their personal pages to show support for the artist.
Waving Palestinian flags, wearing traditional Palestinian garments, or if we're being honest, just being Palestinian, is now officially "too political" for Eurovision.
Literally, all Saade did was wear a keffiyeh around his wrist—while being Palestinian—and that was enough to get a statement from the EBU, and have his opening performance scrubbed from Youtube.
If you're not already boycotting Eurovision this year, then what the fuck is wrong with you?
Below are two statements from Saade. The first one, giving his reason for participating, was posted a few days ago, and the other was in response to the EBU accusing him of 'compromising the non-political nature' of the Genocide Song Contest:

i must not lie down on my bed with my phone. lying down with my phone is the time-killer. lying down with my phone is the little mistake that brings total academic obliteration. i will face my phone. i will permit it to show me my updated tumblr feed. and when i have scrolled past a few posts i will turn over my phone and place it down. where the procrastination has gone there will be nothing. only i will remain
Ooooh apparently it starts tonight so here's some important advice for people watching Eurovision this week!!
1.) Don't.
My favorite response to “that’s not a word” is “then why do you know what it means?”
Every time someone within 30 miles of me says “that’s a made up word” I am uncontrollably compelled to respond “ALL WORDS ARE MADE UP!”
An animation I am ready to be done with for now :)
I love BG3 tavs I love seeing people put immense lore into their tavs as characters and I love seeing people use their tavs as 1:1 self inserts and I love seeing people simply use a tav as a vehicle for gameplay who make them look so cool but know basically nothing about them I love ur tavs feed them to me
I love talking to people about tavs like they’re canon characters it’s so fun. I love talking about my tav’s romance with a character and my friend is reacting like it’s a tv show we’re obsessing over and then they tell me about their tav’s romance with the same exact character and I react like it’s a completely different tv show
I know she doesn't play favorites with her pets, but Daphne the milk cow is something very special to me.
Today in obscure Doctor Who jokes:
Somebody on Twitter pointed out that the Big Finish companion Hex is canonically from the year 2021, so when he occasionally abbreviates the word "suspicious" to "sus," it's probably an Among Us reference.
The punchline is that this character was actually introduced back in 2004. It was made-up future slang that they happened to get right.
he'll catch me
Halsin's had his eyes on that cub since the very beginning 🥺
