Deliblato Sands is a large sand area covering around 300 km² of ground in Vojvodina province, Serbia. It is located in southern Banat, situated between the river Danube and the southwestern slopes of the Carpathian Mountains.
The Deliblato Sands is the largest sandy terrain in Europe, once part of a vast prehistoric desert, having originated from the withdrawal of the Pannonian Sea. They are home to many endemic species of plants and animals which are rare or endangered in Europe and globally. Due to its forest and surroundings, it was declared a special nature reserve. On a national level, it represents a natural asset of special importance falling under protection category I.
And my favourite place to walk. 💚

i grew up in america and yea actually in a lot of areas, the major chains priced out the local businesses until they all shut down. there might be a local small business alternative to walmart for some things, for example a hardware supply store, but it’ll cost more and some people can’t afford to spend more even if they want to.
there are places called food deserts where there aren’t even grocery stores in a reasonable radius, but there is maybe a dollar general and it might have a very limited selection of unhealthy foods, and very rarely maybe even actual produce.
thats genuinely sad but i meant like .. starbucks/subway/fast food alternatives like.. yall dont have those?? again the question is rhetorical ik that your economy is built on franchise monocultures 😭

And as for the other final happening tonight, here’s what I make of the Söngvakeppnin finalists:
Bashar Murad – Wild West
ANITA – Downfall
Sigga Ózk – Into the Atmosphere
Hera Björk – Scared of Heights
VÆB – Movie Scene
Iceland does not like me this year. Four out of five of my personal qualifiers got left in the semis, including my two favourites. I don't think either Blankiflúr or CeaseTone's performances were perfect, but I still think both were decent - I especially liked Blankiflúr's staging and I'm honestly sad she didn't qualify.
With both those two out, Bashar Murad jumps to the top of my ranking, though honestly he just might have made it there anyway! I thought he gave a really good performance, his vocals were good and the choreography was very slick. The overall darker tone of the staging fit the tone of the music really well. I also honestly appreciate him incorporating all the nods to his home country, such as the green/black/red colour scheme, I always enjoy when artists incorporate their heritage. However, given the current context I support it even more so.
Wild West is both my favourite song and had my favourite performance in the semis, so I definitely want it to win tonight. Credit to the other artists, I did enjoy both Anita and Sigga’s performances, both really sold their songs and brought the energy they needed, but in both cases the music isn’t quite doing it for me. I’m glad Iceland held Söngvakeppnin as a contest, and whatever decision they make regarding Eurovision I will support.
