Viewership of Eurovision was down almost a quarter in the UK compared to last year's broadcast which is surprising when you see all the posts by reactionaries who "have never watched before but MY GOD I'm watching tonight!" and proudly announce they voted 500 times for Israel.

If they think that's gross they should see what's happening in Gaza, Rafah and the West Bank.

Right-wingers forcing themselves to watch and commentating about how gross and sexual and GAY and awful Eurovision is and then: spending loads of money voting as many times as they possibly can for a song they didn't even like to own the libs who weren't even watching.

Usually when people say an old episode of a TV show has been "banned" they mean it has been removed from a couple of streaming services. They're just being extremely dramatic and hysterical.

These are some examples I thought of off the top of my head of the good old days when people had a sense of humour and weren't OFFENDED by everything.

George Carlin was arrested for swearing, companies pulled their ads when Ellen DeGeneres's character came out as gay on their sitcom, Laura Dern had trouble getting work after playing a lesbian on Ellen, Life of Brian screenings were suppressed throughout the UK and banned in Ireland....

Remember the good old days of comedy where people didn't get OFFENDED by everything and Lenny Bruce got arrested for swearing, Mary Whitehouse had a platform for years on end, the Christian right bullied a cancer charity in to refusing a donation from Jerry Springer the Opera...

We just finished week three of rehearsals for the upcoming world premiere of Bruce Robinson and Sean Foley's stage adaptation of Withnail & I at the Birmingham Rep and it's AMAZING. WHAT a show to be a part of, I'm so lucky.

The Cass Review rejected nearly 50 studies (the majority on the subject), used AI art instead of actual trans people, classified 24 years old's as children, and said there's a biological determination to which toys kids play with.

It's phrenology tier

Hoorayyyy can FINALLY announce, 18 months after wrapping, that I'm in episode 5 of a new US sitcom based on Friday Night Dinner. I play Tamara. If you're in the US you can watch from April 18th on Amazon/CBS. If you're outside the US...sorry. Guys, I got my hair and makeup done next to Carol Kane!

Twitter is vastly preferable to Threads. People on Threads are just people from Twitter with added smugness that they left Twitter.

There's a Netflix heist movie that came out this year that has a group of art thieves "stealing an nft" and rarely have I seen a movie that was two years out of date on release before.

If all that NFT art turns around and becomes incredibly valuable and makes a load of owners SO wealthy I still won't regret not getting on board. I'd rather make shit money than get super-rich from terrible cartoons of apes.

I can now safely say that Kiss Kiss wasn't a good song, it was the sort of song that Kylie would say "nah you're alright cheers" to so they gave it to a shit version of Kylie and it never should have got to number one. For more takes on Holly Valance just tune in to GB Sooz.
