Yep. I find this "female clothes => they're trans" pretty questionable. Because… clothes have no gender. Men can wear dresses and heels as well.
And that goes for cis and trans men, I also know some trans guys that just like wearing a skirt.

Das ist genuinely so dumm, weil man häufig nur pausiert, um ein Standbild genau anzuschauen und eventuell Frame-by-Frame zu navigieren.

Naja, so wie Cannabis gemacht wurde. Abstandsbeschränkungen zu bestimmten Orten. Finde generell, dass das gleichgesetzt werden sollte.

How is it called?

Of course most overplayed. I mean at least here in Germany, that's a huge meme that as soon as Christmas time begins, Last Christmas is unavoidable and no matter where you go, you'll hear it everywhere (also on every radio station).
So Wham is often mentioned in a negative light due to this (e.g. "A radio station without Wham - that would be a [great] present" in a comedian's song).

Why would someone make Reagan look sympathetic?

Remlinger setzt nun auf ein bundesweites, übergeordnetes, dauerhaftes Denkmal, das sexualisierte Gewalt im Allgemeinen in Kriegen thematisiert, ohne einen konkreten Fall in den Vordergrund zu stellen.

Oh man… wenigstens ist die Kritik direkt dahinter. Aber das ist genau die Sache: Das wird verwässert. Erinnerungen an so konkrete Dinge sind wichtig, weil sie zeigen, wie real das ist.

That's just ridiculous, you can also just play poker without any money for fun

I like seeing memes like this, because it shows that, while I'm Gen Z and not Gen Alpha, I'm still young :>

I know this (or a meme like that) without the top text and it's funny and self-explanatory. The tell-dont-show top text just makes it worse.

I was not given any notice about it. I checked, and there was not an email sent when my account was actioned. No warnings, not a thing.

I would try to find a phone number and call them. Often, it heavily depends on the person you just randomly get assigned to. Some are humane and try to help one if they're not treated fairly.

Also even with a note, expecting you to do that within one month is just ridiculous.
As others have said, take them to court.

So why did we do stop the steal? Why did anyone go to January 6th? Why is anyone sitting in jail? Why did anything bad happen to anybody? Why did everyone get censored? Why is everything bad that has happened to the people that are involved? Why did that need to happen? If you’re just going to walk it all back and say, “oh, I lost.”
Well, that would have been good to know that before 1600 people got charged! It would have been good to know that before I had all my money frozen, put out a no fly list, banned from everything, lost all banking and payment processing!
Would have been good to know that. Before I, you know, in 2017, dedicated my life to this as an 18 year old in college. Just feels like a big rip off!

Europapa got 182 out of 216 possible points and scored the second place in the second semi-final. Only a bit less than Israel, this would have probably meant a top 5 placement in the finale.

Just like with the semi-finals, this is the live thread for the Grand Final of the Eurovision Song Contest 2024.
As there is (to my knowledge), no Lemmy equivalent to https://reddit-stream.com/, the best alternative is refreshing the website about once after each song. This should still be okay for now as this community is relatively small.

As there are so many posts about this topic and it's getting a bit out of hand, I'll create one central place where we can talk about this stuff and share updates.
If there are very big updates, I might create a new post as the new megathread but for now, please don't create new posts for updates but post them here as comments.

Latest news: AVROTROS (the Dutch broadcaster) released a statement. The full statement is in the comments but roughly, they state that against made agreements, Joost Klein was filmed directly after getting off the stage and getting to the greenroom. He indicated he didn't want to be filmed, but this was not respected, leading to a threatening movement from Joost towards the camera, but he did not touch the camera women. This was the whole incident leading to the investigation by EBU and police, according to them.

According to several news outlets, Joost Klein will not perform in the Jury show of the ESC for the Netherlands.
It’s still open whether he will perform in the Grand Final or not.

A Dutch article additionally states that

Joost Klein is not allowed to participate in the jury show of the Eurovision Song Contest. The investigation into the incident that came out earlier on Friday has not yet been completed, AVROTROS reports. Klein does not miss out on any points: the professional jury assesses his performance in the second semi-final.

I think it makes sense to have a general discussion thread to build this community and for you to be able to interact more with each other and talk about stuff.

You can write about all kinds of Eurovision related things here: What are your current favorite songs? Which one grew on or off you recently? What are your staging suggestions? What are your rankings? What are your predictions?
Have fun talking about the songs :D
