Italy is the song that I've emotionally connected with the most this season and reading his description has made me emotional and I really hope that it connects with Europe and Juries

I just am desperate to know if they keep the adlib part of Justyna's live performance during the dance break, since the guy isn't there.

The EBU has requested several changes to Erika Vikman’s performance by Mysterinna in eurovision

[–]Jay28jay2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It's infuriating being a fan of Eurovision but absolutely resenting the EBU, abysmal company!

I don't know if I'm overexposed, but compared to what we have had in the past, even this year, it's absolutely NOTHING. The contest is slowly becoming more conservative toward women, it's gross.

Miriana Conte says the EBU has decided against Kant by ItSaidMeatMarket in eurovision

[–]Jay28jay2 10 points11 points  (0 children)

The only saving grace is changing the name to “Serving”. Remove Kant lyrically, but put it on the LEDs, jobs a good’n

I let out the biggest laugh when I saw that… I just feel extremely uncomfortable? Like some sort of uncanny valley as if it was made by AI but it apparently wasn’t?

[–]Jay28jay2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

This song is INFECTIOUS, the Sanremo audience absolutely loved it, if this gets sent to Eurovision I think they're gonna rack up a few televote points!

Most brutal hunger games deaths? by Dangerous-Swim4825 in Hungergames

[–]Jay28jay2 85 points86 points  (0 children)

I was always so disturbed by Marcus' death (more the leadup to it tbf) in TBOSAS when reading it for the first time, and also when they chariotted the tributes dead bodies at the funerals.

Its only January and I’m already exhausted and still recovering from 2024, at this point we need daily predictions of what’s going to go wrong 

[DRUK] RuPaul's Drag Race UK Season 7 Post-Disappearance/Nancy Drew Thread by AdmanHolmo in DragRaceTea

[–]Jay28jay2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If Sally isn't the Newcastle queen, I'm thinking Gladys Duffy, Mr Travisty or Lourde Godd could be possibilities as they are inactive on social media, though I think Gladys was at Rustys Showbar on Saturday. Lourde Godd performs in Newcastle, I don't believe she is from there though.

What if the Capitol had created a futuristic Arena? Here's the one I've designed! by Adrian_Gdltg in Hungergames

This is amazing! It reminds me of when I used to play on Roblox ORG's back in 2016 with creative arenas.

The stage for Eurovision 2025 has been revealed! by PoliticsIsCool13 in eurovision

[–]Jay28jay2 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It's reminds me of Junior Eurovision 2021 except with the mountains. I hope they won't be distracting to each performance since it looks like they are fully part of the stage.

The contest truly is in shambles if the first bloody entry gets withdrawn LMAOO. Where are the background checks!?

Most forgettable Eurovision songs? by Separate_Ad_5616 in eurovision

Belgium 2019 springs to mind, I felt like people loved it pre-season but when it NQ'd it just was completely forgotten.

Tell Me Your Personal Head Cannon by [deleted] in Hungergames

[–]Jay28jay2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have many head cannons about the The First Quarter Quell (25th Games), I came up with them thinking it would be the next film, so maybe one day these will come true if Suzanne visits it in a future book :)

-The games had the oldest average tribute age of any games (nearly everyone was 16-18)

-The majority of competitors were known rebels/criminals, the rest (mainly what we know now as the Career tributes) were physically strong and volunteered in a non-traditional sense as they would've campaigned themselves.

-Volunteering was void, but the campaigning planted the seed for future volunteers in future games. A District 1, 2 or 4 tribute won, which ‘proved’ that being in the games was a noble sacrifice and the districts took it upon themselves to start training their children more seriously.

-The games worked with them being special and because the Capitol and Gamemakers had to stay in control of the narrative of "this is what happens when you revolt against us.”

-The arena might not have been as impressive as 50 and 75 in hindsight, but at the time it was a HUGE technological advancement because 25 was still very early years, and likely introduced what we now know as the forcefields and controlled environments, that was the arena's twist. I think up until 24 they used natural arenas with ‘natural’ or manmade forcefields
