So much Eurovision drama. Joost has been disqualified for… something. Meanwhile myf and Joel’s commentary of Israel was just… I mean Joel opened in with a loud audible sigh. That sort of tells you everything. Norways jury voice has pulled out, Ireland are pissed at Israel, meanwhile Israel somehow got through with one of the weaker songs of the night? Crazy stuff.

Sadly I won’t be checking any socials between now and tomorrow night when I’ve watched the grand final, but maaaaaaaan spewing I’m gonna miss the updates in between cause it sounds like the Dutch and Irish are about to go to war with the EBU.

I keep forgetting about Eurovision every year but this year my funny reminder of it was randomly looking through SmartTraveller advice out of curiosity and seeing Sweden on the "exercise a high degree of caution" list because......... Eurovision results are out soon and there may be unrest.

Lmfao.

Israel is currently second behind Croatia in the odds. They didn’t just get through, they may take out the whole thing. The drama of that win… but I think Croatia’s got it.

evidentially Croatia didnt have the "Code" all all the jury announcers were so stoked to point out.

I came for the songs, I stay for the juicy juicy drama
