Oh boy, this year the UK is—surreally—entering Sam Battle, aka Look Mum No Computer, as their contestant in the Eurovision Song Contest. Yes, it's *that* Sam, who built the Furby Organ.
@cstross friends group uniformly disappointed in him. Perhaps he’ll urge a boycott and lead it himself? Wish I could straightforwardly root for him.
@dubiousblur @cstross what are they disappointed by?
@cstross @liaizon anyone entering Eurovision rather than boycotting for the Current Events Reasons
@dubiousblur @cstross ah thats fair, yeah I guess that would be the other option. Tho they are still trying to be a celebrity or something so I could see the the opportunity being hard to turn down
@liaizon @cstross changing their mind _now_ will _definitely_ get them attention
