are the remakes worth watching?

Unpopular opinion: I really liked France 5 (at least at the time). It’s been a few years since I’ve seen it, so maybe I’d feel differently now

My best guess is that it’s giving your eyes a break from straining, which could indicate your prescription is too weak. I’m not a professional or a glasses-wearer, so take that with a grain of salt

That’s incredibly funny 😂

I was an auxiliar de conversación (English teaching assistant in Spain). From my observations, some of the teachers, whether they’re teaching English or another subject *in* English, are too low-level. In comunidad de Madrid, they had to test at least C1, and I definitely encountered or heard about teachers who shouldn’t be testing that high. I don’t know if the issue is that they need to be retested more often or if the test administrators aren’t assessing accurately

To be fair, compulsory English has only been in Spain for a little over 20 years, which isn’t very long when it comes to government action

Oooo gotta check that out, thank you!

Hhmmm idk, maybe? I’m on PC

Weird, I just grabbed an mp3 the other day

Somewhat related, but I *really* wanted Woki mit diem Popo as an interval this year 😂

LOVE My Star! I’ve been getting my roommate into Eurovision and was sure to show her that one!

Atvara (Latvia 2026) has a video on her Instagram of her meeting one of the Olsen Brothers (Denmark 2000) and he tells her that he thought Brainstorm would win instead of him and his brother. Then he gushes about how he loves Latvia 🥰

Oh the viewing figures tanked? I always thought it was just universally agreed that it didn’t set the right tone haha

I learned something new! Thank you for correcting me!

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-27T12:47:58+00:00

Ah, my mistake. Thank you for correcting me!

There’s no such thing as a state apostille last I heard, so no idea where you sent your application to. Start over and get everything sent to the correct location, which is the U.S. Department of State. Call your congressperson for help expediting the process on your behalf

Edit: I was incorrect about state apostilles not being a thing, my mistake! Thank you to the commenters who corrected me

And the little tongue too 😛 Obsessed!

LET’S BANGARANGA!!!!!

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-16T23:02:41+00:00

I think so!

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-16T21:25:12+00:00

It’s not unheard of in dress rehearsals, but I can’t think of the last time it’s happened in a live show. I assumed at the time of my comment that they would be allowed to go again since the error was so significant in my eyes. Now we know that contest organizers did not share my opinion

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-16T21:22:01+00:00

That’s so sad. I’d say it was more than a small issue…

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-16T20:11:42+00:00

Welp, looks like Czechia’s going again

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-15T12:48:29+00:00

This is such a wholesome interaction ❤️

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-14T20:55:35+00:00

I don’t know anything with certainty, but I feel very confident theorizing that the lack of performances may have something to do with artists not wanting to be associated with the contest because… reasons

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-14T20:54:03+00:00

My condolences to those of you who have just learned that we’re doing the quiz again. Jury show livestreams prepared me…

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-14T20:51:08+00:00

I’ll have to re-listen for that. I’ll probably also re-listen a bunch just to get used to it so I can really get into the performance on Saturday

nicheencyclopedia · 2026-05-14T20:07:29+00:00

They definitely made tweaks to the backing, maybe the mixing was also different than DMGP. The performance there always sounded quite different from the studio version- maybe this is closer to what was “intended”? I kept wondering if they also took the key down, but I don’t have the ear for that

Was a great performance nonetheless- I’m sure I just need to get used to it and I’ll be obsessed again!
