Distracted myself from flat hunting by finishing this off. I enjoyed it, but had elevated hopes for something much more #booksky

Netherlands, Spain and Ireland boycott Eurovision after Israel allowed to compete They were among a number of countries who had called for Israel to be excluded over the humanitarian toll of the war in Gaza.

I watched with a bitter taste in my mouth for the last two years, but I don't think I'll be able to stomach watching Eurovision 2026 while countries are actively boycotting it. What an absolute mess, ruining a fun tradition to appease Israel. www.bbc.co.uk/news/live/ce...

Not KT Tunstall hanging out with one of the most notorious Zionists there is, Eve Barlow. I thought KT following her on Instagram was just a hangover from Eve's music journalist days, but evidently not. So disappointing.

Yeah, the timeline seemed off with Sugababes lumped in with Little Mix. I guess there aren't many other 2010s girlbands to feature.

Yeah, nothing here is very exciting for those of us with digital music libraries, same with Veronica Electronica. At least the upcoming Bedtime Stories release has some new stuff.

#GirlbandsForever was an insightful look at that era of pop, especially from Mel from All Saints, Natasha from Atomic Kitten, and Su-Elise from Mis-Teeq. Don't go into it expecting a comprehensive look at every notable girlband, especially with the Girls Aloud omission, but a great watch.

Just finished reading this and felt physically ill during her account of election night. It seems so long ago after the mess Tr*mp has caused since. Would recommend reading to hear about the intricacies of a truncated presidential campaign. Biden and his team have a lot to answer for. #kamalaharris

🧑 Some of the lyrics are heinous and the sex references are really naff
πŸ’š The Sabrina collab is completely forgettable
🧑 This probably ranks as one of her worst albums

#TheLifeOfAShowgirl thoughts:
πŸ’š Highlights are The Fate of Ophelia, Cancelled, Elizabeth Taylor, and Ruin the Friendship
🧑 Having Max Martin at the helm set expectations that I don't think this meets
πŸ’š The songs don't match the title or theme - where are the songs a showgirl can dance to?

But then it's the same with marginalised people voting for Trump. This man outwardly says and does things to make your life harder, and yet you support him. I'll never understand it.

I was disappointed but not surprised when you posted this yesterday. I've unfollowed various people on socials because of their CK views, but gay people supporting him? Brainless. Please point out on the big list of all the awful things he said, which you agree with.

grotesquely comic to have high ranking politicians coming out swinging in defence of *Graham Linehan*. guarantee if you showed most normal people a selection of Graham's tweets from the last decade (and told them it's all he's been doing all that time) they'd agree he should be punted into the sun
