As Israel have been allowed to compete in Eurovision 2026, the UK must follow in the footsteps of Ireland, Spain, Slovenia and the Netherlands and boycott the competition.

The world's largest live music event cannot be used to whitewash Israel's ongoing genocide in Gaza.

Het is allemaal nog veel en veel erger als ik dacht.

We laten ons als samenleving en economie gijzelen daar een bbp-technisch kleine bedrijfstak die ongelooflijk veel ruimte inneemt. En vervuilt.

En alle rest kan oprotten

En het ergste. Er is geen enkele hardwerkende kleine boer mee gebaat.

I really feel for the Italian organisers. Trying super hard to get a race going, paying a premium fee and then half of the cross peloton saying: no sorry I am training in Spain this week.

Powerful read from Veronica Ewers who has to pause her pro cycling career to recover from RED-S. Eating disorders are no joke.

2026 is the year of schadenfreude
Potent dose of schadenfreude
"The emerging post-Trump GOP is an amalgam of neo-fascist extremists and regressive 'establishment' Republicans. These factions are at odds with each other, as well as most of the nation, raising the question what kind of party will emerge as Trump’s dominion fades." — @davidrlurie.com

Unibet gets a 4mln fine from Dutch government for not doing enough to protect its users against gambling addiction. Unibet-Rose is sponsored by the French company though. In NL sports sponsorship by betting companies is not allowed anymore. Belgium, same. nos.nl/artikel/2592...
