🇪🇪 Song submissions for Eesti Laul 2026 will open on Friday, ERR’s Head of Entertainment Karmel Killandi has announced. Speaking to Delfi about ERR’s stance on #Eurovision participation, she said they are in “close contact with the EBU” and “Eesti Laul will not be cancelled”.

In Eurovision adjacent news... this Durek/Norway princess story is... #RebelRoyals

Meanwhile I’m over here coordinating an event in our nation’s capitol with an actor from one of the best shows of all time, elected officials, and a real housewife. “Get a real job”

I mean… Am I surprised? My opinion is the same: tiktok.com/t/ZTMjgHmPC/

The Republicans who control the House, Senate and The White House are playing with the health and livelihoods of millions of Americans. Over 22 million Americans are about to see their health care premiums skyrocket by an average of 75% because GOP Republicans will not extend

32BJ represents approximately 2,400 hard-working federally contracted security officers, office cleaners, and food service workers – workers who would bear the brunt of a Republican-created government shutdown. Not only do 32BJ SEIU /// #BuildingJustice 🧹✊🏽 members earn less than direct federal

If Republicans choose to shut down the government, they will once again show they support billionaires over everyday Americans. 3/3

Let me just say this… IF (big hypothetical here) the States participated in the Eurovision Song Contest, I would be calling for our expulsion given the foolishness of Dump, Congress, and the “court”… We don’t need to be dancing across a stage during this foolishness.

Good morning, #EurovisionFam! We are back, baby!

We can and should be critical about things we love.

No one should be demonized and dismissed for offering critiques.

When you truly love something you want the best for it… To achieve the best honesty is necessary. Feedback is a gift.

I guess it is open season again...

Last year I was unbelievably overwhelmed with #Eurovision national selections. This year I'm going to try and be focused and STICK to it... 1. Estonia's Eesti Laul 2026 2. Latvia's Supernova 3. Portugal's Festival da Canção 2026 4. Pesma za Evroviziju HM: Ethnikós Telikós 2026

🚨 Austrian broadcaster ORF says the EBU "today canceled the vote of all members scheduled for November on whether or not to participate" in #Eurovision next year. "The decision will now be made by the General Assembly in December, as originally planned" orf.at/stories/340834…

This report is quite ambiguous about whether there will still be a vote in December or not - at the least, it seems it will be discussed by member broadcasters at the meeting. We're still waiting on an official confirmation from the EBU as of writing.

In the United States, the MLB literally created a fan council. It's interesting because we're in an age where brands and orgs are cracking the door open to fans who were once dismissed as merely customers. The EBU is moving in the opposite direction in recent years.
