A sunny March day, banana cake in the oven and a jug of mimosas in the fridge, free National Theatre on YouTube, and an ever-growing sense of dread about the wider global situation. 💁🏻‍♀️🦋 is this lockdown?

helena by my chemical romance

Kate Butch saying “two world wars and one world cup”, followed by that lip sync song took me back to a very specific time in my life (the pub in the mid-noughties with the football on and a J2O) #dragraceuk

Also I might be wrong but I think Medina making the podium every time they get to the final?? It’s not Melfest without them at this point.

A win for those of us who love fishnet tops and pew pew laser music 🙏🏻 #melfest

Sanna will be fine, she’s always got ESC250 #melfest

god I love KAJ so much #melfest

Is that a Voyager? #melfest

Maybe it’s because I’m less invested than usual this year, but all in all, an excellent Melfest final

Robin Bengtsson will always be “recipient of a makeover on Drag Race Sweden” over anything else for me #melfest

There was a weird “ABBA vs Queen” show on channel 5 over Christmas, and I feel like Greczula watched that and said “…yes” #melfest

ME 👏🏻 DI 👏🏻 NA 👏🏻

A gin martini does not feel like the correct drink to pair with Melfest. And yet here we are.

Eins, Zwei, Drei is exactly my kind of nonsense, and the more I discover of Look Mum No Computer the more I love, but I can also see the pipeline from Scooch

Kate Butch’s knitted bikini legitimately better than any of those abominations we saw on Game of Wool

can’t even sing in English these days cause of woke (I’m so intrigued by this)

oh no, I can hear Double Trouble in 🇦🇺

All my favourites come back from ESC and go straight to therapy (yksi kaksi kolme trauma is genius)

Questa non è Ibiza

and they did me proud ✨🇫🇮🇮🇹✨

OH MY GOD #sanremo

Upon further analysis: (indulging Carlo a little bit as it’s his last year) Ama is your real dad who lets you get away with whatever you want; Carlo is your boring stepdad who wants you to go to bed at a sensible time and tries to show you everything he’s interested in, even if you don’t care

andrea bocelli on a horse? why not i guess #sanremo

Stepping away from Sanremo putting Andrea Bocelli on a horse(??) to say fuck yeah UMK top 3 exactly how I’d place them, I’ve never felt more connected to the Finnish people 🇫🇮

Need a night out that’s just the UMK pre-show playlist

Final scaletta giving a finishing time of 1:10am UK time and I’m sitting here wondering whether it’s better or worse to know that in advance #sanremo

My two favourite countries/music industries having their big shows on the same night is too much for me, especially dosed up on Sudafed. Very inconsiderate, will be trying to catch every minute of both

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

I love covers night so much #sanremo

A Nik Kershaw cover?! Sure why not #sanremo

Still true

Why is Laura doing an impression of me? #sanremo

Gianni Morandi is so happy I could cry #sanremo

Feeling nostalgic for when I had a bleached underlayer for no reason at all #sanremo

I’ve only had Bambole di Pezza for three nights but if anything happened to them etc etc #sanremo

The Ariston is at its best when it resembles a family wedding #sanremo

Need someone to go back in time twenty years and tell me that I’ll end up spending one Friday evening watching a member of the Lamborghini family sing The Ketchup Song on Italian TV #sanremo

Ended up with a horrendous cold; I need Sanremo covers night and the espresso martini I’ve just made to save me (pls Carlo)

THE KOLORS MEDLEY 💃🏻 🪩 #sanremo

Carlo Conti so excited by Alicia Keys he’s requesting extra songs, even though we’re behind time, will wonders never cease?

I’m going to end this week singing the Acqua & Sapone song at every opportunity aren’t I? #sanremo

god the things we sit through for some moments of brilliance #sanremo

It’s gone big in the hall! (and rightly so) #sanremo

Sorry to everything that has happened during the first hour of Sanremo tonight, but I’ve spent the time becoming steadily more obsessed with Bambole di pezza instead

looooool classifica all over the place (thank god for ermal meta) #sanremo

Everything about this performance seems designed to annoy me, down to the big eye at the back #sanremo

Bam Bam Twist klaxon 🚨 #sanremo

I need a neon Italian hand sign light IMMEDIATELY #sanremo
