Given this year's Eurovision Song Contest is UK-based I'll make an effort this year to watch at least some of the semi-finals as well as the final unlike nearly every other year, and I went years (basically 2005-2011) without watching anything of the contest at all. I'll exclusively use the hashtag #Eurovision and the first semi-final is on BBC One at 8pm this evening plus I haven't heard anything of the songs before now. You have been warned 😀
Advance warning that the #Eurovision Song Contest starts in 8 hours (and that's just the first Semi Final, the contest continues over 5 days). If that's not a thing you're interested in, you might want to mute that hashtag now in advance - and perhaps #Eurovision2023#ESC#esc2023 too.
Or if it is your thing, those are some hashtags you might want to follow!
It's #eurovision Time Baby!
Ich habe einen Blog-Post über die queere und vor allem schwule Historie des #esc geschrieben und beantworte die Fragen Warum ist alles so gay, nur nicht in Deutschland?,
War der ESC schon immer gay? und wer hat sich das Ganze ausgedacht?
#FairWarning: As every year (except for 2020) this account will soon be filled with #Eurovision#ESC comments and anecdotes. culminating in a toot livestream of the finals on the 13th. If you don't want that in your timeline, feel free to mute me until then. I will not be offended by that. Eurovision means a lot to me, so please share the joy and refrain from too many sarcastic comments or personal attacks. Peace. Long live the #ESC :)
