Disappointed it's not Glasgow

Netta strikes again. #Eurovision #Basel2025

Weird that the host city feels almost immaterial given all the other problems the contest is in, but there we go.

@richmondbridge Don't even need to go before this year, I've seen Bambie come up a lot with these images

I wanted an Achille Lauro and an Annalisa vinyl too but the ones with their Sanremo songs ('1969 Rebirth' and 'Nuda' respectively) are limited editions that are only available on eBay for €€€ so.

On the plus side, my La Rappresentante di Lista vinyl arrived and I'm chilling out to "Amare", "Ciao Ciao" and a bunch of other beautiful and/or dancy bops.

"Whew this election is really stressing me out, let me check my Eurovision account, it's definitely going to be calm good vibes over ther...oh"

@dudepoints Did you hear that Morgan was a judge but got fired last year? He didn't even need Bugo!

went for a walk and stumbled upon a citi zēni concert there’s just no way… i’ve been in latvia for 4 hours

@ElliotRHarris Yohio came very very close.

Does raise the question, how much longer before K-Pop and J-pop comes into the contest. Not just in sound and look but also language

Everyone wanting Electric Callboy at Eurovisoin Enjoy this INSANE collab with BABYMETAL!!! youtube.com/watch?v=EDnIEW…

@JeMappellePercy @ozdale Glad it's not just Scotland at least

@ozdale I would say “haha we’re feeling the opposite, getting the pimms ready for summer!” but nothing short of utterly torrential rain has just started outside and I also have a blanket on. Fucking British weather, man.

Love late night tennis watching. You really know winter has begun. Blankets and hot drinks on the couch. I mean I'd rather summer with a drink, but it's something Aussie tennis fans know well at this time of year!

Beyoncé’s current era:

I hate that Eurovision was used in part to provide a sense of international popular support for what happened in Rafah.

@Arianna483 Glasgow??? 👀

I won't be around here too much for the next two weeks cause I'll be on holiday! 😊 So I might be slower with DMs

@MrAdamR Watching this from Holyrood by the Clyde.

The whole film still gives me nightmares, but this image makes my eyes twitch.

@ascottreid I am so glad I went in figuring that would be the outcome.

My look when I was on live TV and Liverpool got Eurovision instead of Glasgow.

@kittenseses I keep thinking you're holding some kind of whip because of that branch(?) behind you

@JeMappellePercy Not at all, that's a key part of the propaganda, that the rest of the world irrationally hate them.

Btw at which point during KAN’s commentators saying over and over and OVER again “they do not like Israel”, do you think the public in Israel maybe went “wait that’s like ten people now…are we…are we the baddies?”

Still an all time national final performance for me, and the way the orchestra get really into it feels very Sanremo too. youtu.be/l2bZb8utdo0?si…

Norwegian girl in the office is fully cracking up that I both know and love "En godt stekt pizza" (NRKMGP 2015) because it was a song from her Russ. I swear National Finals are just a really good way of providing an icebreaker for meeting Europeans (or Australians!).
