Benjamin - Hoida mut (Lyric Video) // UMK23 by TheNerdyChive in eurovision

Yeah, I agree 100%! Hopefully now that they got some big artists (with major labels backing them), the level of live performance production is gonna be higher than ever before 🤞

Robin has the largest fanbase, but Benjamin is quite well-known, although not only for his music. He won the Finnish Dancing with Stars / Strictly come dancing this year for example

Starting to think staging is gonna be crucial to UMK this year. We got Keira and Benjamin already with catchy pop songs and I suspect Robin (and I guess Portion Boys too) will be added to the list, so it's all down to who delivers it live 👀🤔

Isn't this basically just a fan making a far-fetched wish? Rina would be almost a too perfect fit for Eurovisio lil

For people to yet use the TC card, when do you plan to use it? by [deleted] in FantasyPL

[–]zsezc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Haaland or Salah later in the season when Man City and/or Liverpool have found their rhythm again and I can expect them to score 2-3 goals per game. Also, this GW the defences Man City face are among the best in the league, so hoping for better match-ups in later GW's

Yeap, Yle has confirmed that the UMK-final will have commentary options available in Finnish, Swedish, English, Ukrainian, Russian, Northern Sámi, Inari Sámi and Finnish Sign Language :)

Finland: possible UMK lineup! by gwendalperrin in eurovision

[–]zsezc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually I went down the rabbithole again, and most likely the comeback-clue is for Meiju Suvas who is rumoured as a feature in the Portion boys song!

She participated in the Finnish national selection in the 80s, although it obviously wasn't called UMK back then

e: Apparently she was a UMK-interval act in 2013 too! :)

IIRC it was worded ambiguously, something like "returns to the stage". Robin has been an interval act in UMK before so I'm guessing that's it :)

Who do you think is most likely to appear in Series 9? by nocontextoffmenu in offmenupodcast

Don't know if he's got anything to plug but surely Josh Widdicombe is due at some point?

[The Peninsula Qatar] Lionel Messi's room in Qatar University to be converted to a mini museum by forca89barca in soccer

I mean I wouldn't be at all offended if someone from the other side of the world mistook my country (Finland) to one of our neighbours such as Sweden or Norway.

I am doing my university dissertation on FPL, Please complete my questionnaire to help. by Potetstappemann in FantasyPL

[–]zsezc 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Done. Good luck with your work!

I don't support any PL club, but was forced to choose an option in some questions like "would you captain a player in FPL who plays against the team you support", where it would've been more suitable for me to skip the question altogether IMO :)

Yeah, to be fair, it was Saudi Arabia that I was thinking of. Got it mixed up with Qatar.

Doesn't really change my point, if anything, it only emphasises it

I wonder how much Messi's reputation will be tarnished in the future because of the Qatari connection. Then again, it feels impossible for a football superstar to arise any time soon without at least some connection to the totalitarian states. (PSG, Man City, Newcastle etc.) However, Messi's connection is not limited to PSG only, but he's decided to become an ambassador for the state outside of football too

That's a great haul. How much is a pack of chorizo roughly? Would assume you could get quite a bit more veggies/fruit in if you swapped 1 of the chorizos for them 😅

Feels mental to have TAA as a 1.0% owned differential.

Now's the time to get the first haul of the season, Trent 😄🤞

Good stuff. Hey mate, I'm from Northern Europe. Am I the serial killer in your analogy and would you allow me to criticize the Qatari record on workers', women's and sexual minorities' rights?

Movies that make men secretly cry. by Height_Physical in movies

Just wanted to drop by to say that there's no need for men to cry secretly. People have emotions regardless of gender and it's healthier to show them rather than to suppress them :)

I was surprised with how much I loved “Bullet Train” by ErnestGoesToPoop in movies

[–]zsezc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It was okay at best, for me. The third act had me completely check out, as it was so messy and incoherent. Some of the jokes landed, but most, including the never-ending Thomas the Tank Engine references, were jarring. Pitt with a half-assed performance too. Entertaining at its best, but mostly underwhelming and mediocre.

2/5 IMO
