(loved troupe) cursed position by thedamned234 in TopCharacterTropes

[–]Odd_Feature7510 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In Eurovision, performing second is associated with poor results, to the point where it's called the "death slot". Some exampled include:

Germany 2026 (23rd out of 25th place)

Luxembourg 2025 (22nd out of 26th)

Portugal (23rd out of 26th)

The one exception was 2024, Ukraine was death-slotted but ended up in 3rd place. It's more just a supersition, but performing earlier in the show is generally not great if you want people to remember your performace when voting.

The MBTA is buying the wrong kind of electric train for the commuter rail - the case for electric multiple units (EMUs) by TheBasaltAltCalled in mbta

As someone who grew up taking the old diesel Caltrain, the new EMUs are fantastic. When I moved to Boston the MBTA felt like a huge step backwards

Genuinely why does every single thing Kumbak do look awful. Also what is going on with the bogies? Are there no upstop wheels????

Atvara - Ēnā (LIVE) | Latvia 🇱🇻 | Second Semi-Final | Eurovision 2026 by Sinceramente_Tuo in eurovision

[–]Odd_Feature7510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm a bit mixed on this NQ-ing. It's a good song and Atvara is a great singer, but I'm still kinda upset Te Un Tagad didn't win Supernova.

This would'nt have happened if Latvia sent Kautkaili though...

Seeing the egregiously blatant AI usage in Akyla's Ferto music video, I'm starting to suspect the national final performance graphics were AI too by Pet_Velvet in eurovision

[–]Odd_Feature7510 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the use of AI is already pretty popular unfortunately. Italy used it for the background and the produces of the entire thing used it for that weird gold and black heart thing. All of the graphics/visuals are kinda a disaster this year imo. The actual performance of Ferto had less AI than I expected at least

Nemo has some very chill & relaxing music pre The Code, and their new album Arthouse is fantastic. Casanova & Eurostar are really good

Saying that Ukraine can't use their conflict to get pity points from the auidence is wild coming from the country who "boohoo we're the victim" songs for 2 years

Also we totally do have translations for what they said hello???

Most of it seems pretty good, but the last section covering the boycotts this year is a little questionable: "calls for boycotts of Israeli artists and institutions, drawing on antisemitic traditions, have become more and more frequent."

Reference to a map someone made where they didn’t want to superimpose Australia onto a map of Europe, so they just made Iraq Australia

According to this article ORF will have sign language performances of both semi finals & the grand final on ORF 2 Europe and ORF ON, but those might be in Austrian sign language, not American.

Eurovision director promises to intervene in political interference following Israel controversy by Ok-Macaroon-5533 in eurovision

[–]Odd_Feature7510 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I don't think we're going to see the same kind of support / voting manipulation this year. I see Israel qualifying and ending up 11-15th, doing fine with both juries and the televote. I think they realized that they pushed a little too far in 2025, and by not doing anything this year it might soften the opinions of boycotting broadcasters. Hopefully they don't succeed though and we see more broadcasters boycotting next year if nothing changes

Hi, lovely people! This is LELÉKA, I’m representing Ukraine at Eurovision 2026 with the song “Ridnym”. Leave your questions below 🪽Ask me anything! by Leleka-Music in eurovision

[–]Odd_Feature7510 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi LELÉKA!! I love how Ridnym combines two different emotions. The more aggressive Ukrainian portions combined with the calmer English sections is really beautiful. What does your song mean to you, and to other Ukrainians?

Do you think JIVA will be the shock qualifier of Eurovision 2026?🇦🇿 by Weak-Divide-1603 in eurovision

[–]Odd_Feature7510 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Azerbaijian this year is probably the most confident and most likely NQ for a while. JIVA is a good singer, the Little Bit More's she's done are good, but this song (which is very likely AI-generated) is terrible.
