Loreen can thank the 5 people in each country’s jury for her victory. The public picked the real winner 💚💚💚
THIS should have been the focus last night, not those bloody jury votes
also the juries are made up of like 5 people. FIVE. and their points count as much as those of MILLIONS of voters?? actually insane.

i used to love loreen (still do) but now every time i see her i’m just 😠😠😠😠😤
I think I’ve maybe seen two posts on social media praising Sweden’s victory. Two. The rest is all Finland. Says it all really.
SEEING FINLAND AT THE TOP OF THE BOARD AND HEARING THE OVER 200 POINTS GO TO SWEDEN
also the way they hand out the votes is so fucking stupid? the televotes should get the most attention. nobody cares about the jury votes. käärijä deserved to actually receive all those 12s from the public 🥺
babe wake up, it was all a dream. these are the real results.
abolish this jury already, why should it have as much power as the people at home PAYING to vote? get fucked, old farts.
i am absolutely l o s i n g it at Tommy "Desert Storm Vet and Texan in 2003 When the World Ended" Miller realizing he's now a communist, like look at this:
this man's whole worldview got Rocked
apparently i’m a millennial woman
I mean, yeah, valid! but but but I also want to add on the fact that lotr AGGRESSIVELY rejects the “grimdark” and “gritty” settings that is so prevalent in fantasy (and also in general) right now, because I physically can not shut up about it
It is hope and love and compassion that saves each character individually, and because of that, the world. Frodo fails in the end, but his acts of compassion from earlier in the story save the day. And even as the world is saved, it is acknowledged that Frodo failed—without judgement, without blame. He fails, and he is still loved.
And like what can happen in the real world, he is still irrevocably changed by his trauma. But there is still hope—he has to leave, but he leaves with the promise of healing, and the promise that his ever-faithful Sam will follow.
Aragorn, Boromir, Frodo, Sam; each and every one of the characters are driven by their love of the people around them and their hope for the future. They cling to that love and hope throughout their trials, and that bears them through.
Of course people are watching it for comfort!!!! Lotr is eternally consistent in its promise, which Sam articulates so clearly in The Two Towers: “Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines, it’ll shine out the clearer.”
Things are dark and awful and terrible, but it will not be that way forever. That is the promise of LOTR. A promise of hope, and the reminder that it is love and compassion—for our friends, for our families, for the strangers we’ve never even met—that will save us in the end.
For all the stealth archers out there...
For … research…. Purposes
