The only good thing about long COVID is that it made the medical community admit myalgic encephalomyelitis is likely caused my viral exposure. We were like “Hey, I had a virus and just never got better.” and doctors were like “That’s silly. And stupid. Chronic fatigue syndrome is just a random vague constellation of symptoms. Or just depression. It’s all in your head.” and now doctors are experiencing it.

"Part of [creating the Obi-Wan Kenobi series] was interfacing with George. Early on, there was a conversation had with George over his thoughts were, and whether or not honestly he would balk at the whole concept of 'we're taking Obi-Wan and Vader again and we're doing this [storyline]'. And he was a hundred percent supportive. And I've heard tell that it's been one of his favorite things that's come out of Star Wars, because he recognizes so much of what he did in the prequels basically brought forward and celebrated." --Pablo Hidalgo, Full of Sith podcast #VINDICAAAAAATIOOOOONNNN #THE OBI-WAN KENOBI SERIES NAILED BEING AN EXTENSION OF THE PREQUELS #FROM THE AESTHETIC DETAILS OF FIGHT CHOREOGRAPHY TO THE THEMES OF THESE CHARACTERS #THAT SHOW UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT #AND I'M GOING TO STAPLE THIS TO EVERYONE'S DOOR OUT OF SHEER GLEE THAT GEORGE LUCAS AGREES

The Eurovision song contest is facing intense scrunity and accusations of discrimination after it rebuked Swedish-Palestinian pop star Eric Saade for wearing a Palestinian scarf in the opening act of the semi-finals. Saade, whose father is of Palestinian origin, kicked off the first semi-final of the Eurovision Song Contest in Malmo, Sweden on Tuesday evening with a keffiyeh, a traditional Palestinian and Arab male headdress, wrapped around his wrist. [...] In response, the organisers of the contest, European Broadcasting Union (EBU) released a statement saying it "regretted" that Saade wore the scarf. "The Eurovision Song Contest is a live TV show. All performers are made aware of the rules of the contest, and we regret that Eric Saade chose to compromise the non-political nature of the event," it said. [...] Eurovision later posted clips of the performances of the other two opening acts on its social media pages, but did not share Saade’s, prompting social media users to share the performance on their personal pages to show support for the artist.

Waving Palestinian flags, wearing traditional Palestinian garments, or if we're being honest, just being Palestinian, is now officially "too political" for Eurovision.

Literally, all Saade did was wear a keffiyeh around his wrist—while being Palestinian—and that was enough to get a statement from the EBU, and have his opening performance scrubbed from Youtube.

If you're not already boycotting Eurovision this year, then what the fuck is wrong with you?

Below are two statements from Saade. The first one, giving his reason for participating, was posted a few days ago, and the other was in response to the EBU accusing him of 'compromising the non-political nature' of the Genocide Song Contest:

Reminder again to BOYCOTT EUROVISION 🇵🇸

People exist who actually want the Master to be written out of the show? Even temporarily? They’re like…the only other reoccurring character. The only other active character that can be recasted. Almost as central and iconic to the show as Cybermen or Daleks. Infamous for coming back from the dead. The Doctor’s person.

there is no 'base accent' so like all of this is entirely subjective tbc, just based on what people around you say and how you think you sound

pick whichever language you want to answer in if you're multi-lingual

#eh i have an accent thats sort of half adelaide half regular australian #according to my mum (unreliable narrator) i speak with a very clear voice and multiple uber drivers have asked me if I'm Irish so???
