Let's talk about the Eurovision 2025 results.

No, not those results.

THESE results.

For the first time in history, a novelty song has cracked the top five not once, but twice. That's a moment that deserves recognition. Let's talk about why.

Comedy is an art, and beyond that, it's an art that's uniquely got its finger on the pulse of society. You may have heard the theory that you can tell a lot about a culture’s collective anxieties at any given point in history by looking at the kind of horror media they create. I contend that you can tell a lot about society’s overall mindset and opinions on positions of power by looking at the kind of comedy they create. Because while drama is the genre of the powerful and the elite, comedy is the genre of the people. You can tell a lot about what the common people deem important in the role of society by the kind of comedy they create and support. 

That's why it's so important to recognize that in this moment in history, people chose to support these two entries and give them a top five finish.

Sweden, a country historically known for bland formulaic pop sung in English, sent a comedy trio singing in a Swedish dialect. And it got the whole world dancing together during a time when global tensions are at their peak.

Estonia brought us a goofy song about coffee, but more than that, a veiled satire of hustle culture and celebrity influencers--and according to some, celebrity politicians. As an American, my view on this is probably a bit different from the European audience's, but I think we can all agree that collectively, humanity is tired of tech bros, hustlers, and celebrity businessmen, and that's why we voted to watch them get made fun of. And that to me says that we're ready for revolution.

These two entries placing this highly in a competition that tolerates novelty but doesn't often rank it highly proves, once and for all, that comedy is a valid art form and that comedy belongs at Eurovision and always has, no matter what anyone says.

And let's not forget the other incredible novelty entries (I'm counting Laika Party because it's very unconventional and follows a lot of comedy conventions) that we saw this year, that may not have made it to the top but also proved that this art form matters and people want to see it succeed.

In such a god-awful results year, we can still be happy that for once, a genre that isn't often taken seriously and given the appreciation it deserves actually was. This has set a precedent and I, for one, am thrilled.

Since I have Tumblr now might as well share this here as well, starting with the image that started it all.

I was upset that Patriarch didn’t get much story in the game, specifically since it was building up to the fact that something was happening to him in between notes.

So I decided that if Nintendo wasn’t gonna give this guy a story that I would!

I’ll share more of this concept soon cuz I have various drawings and comics

Something that stuck in my brain about these two

[firegloom]

Oh never mind. Rejoice, they've been banned!

WARNING

I was just scrolling through the Luigi tag when I came across this blog:

It looked like they're reposting other people's art, claiming they made it, and included a very sketchy looking link. I don't know what the link is, but honestly I'm to afraid to find out.

Here's three examples I found. Two I recognized from @shyblacksheep and one from @akiiame-blog. I just searched the Mario tags, but there are much more art and posts being stolen.

Please don't engage with this blog, and especially don't click on the link or the Read More. Block and report if you can.
