My main channel will still consist of VN readings (not much different than before), but I am considering uploading more to my second channel "Dirk's Dorky Things". That one is more of a variety channel, which has my D&D sessions, Twitch VOD's, and an occasional Eurovision video on there. If I feel up for it, I'd probably post Eurovision content there since that's always been something I could make long rants about.

For Sileo, I swear I upload the missing episode with cutout bits. I'll need to check to see if I kept it unlisted. Everything either is the same or reuploaded with edits, so nothing should be missing now. That was a bitch to fix, but I feel much better about my channel because of it.

Sure am! Sorry for taking so long to answer this one! I've been trying to gather my thoughts for a while. So far, I've listened to the Czechia and Malta national selections. Czechia really shot themselves in the foot with their choice "Pedestal" (absolute mess, might get nil points). I forgot the runner-up, but "Red Flag Parade" (third place) would have been fun to see on a bigger stage. As for Malta, kind of a weak year for them. I think "Loop" is good, but not a stand-out; my choice would've been "Sirena".

As for the other countries, I have only heard their winning songs (or internally represented ones).
* France sounded pretty good the first time, but I worry they released their song too early and its impact will fade by the time the contest arrives.
* Albania is pretty underrated from what I've seen so far. I think it might be another scenario of "bookmakers bet it to NQ", then it qualifies.
* Slovenia is solid, but it's hard for me to remember since I last heard it a few weeks back.
* Luxembourg, I'm glad they have majority French in their song. Another hard to remember song that still gave me good vibes.
* Ireland, on the other hand, is quite memorable. Very mixed feelings on it, but I'm so glad they are being bold for once. First time they have.
* Ukraine is the forerunner at the moment, and I can see why! I can see this being a winner, and I think it's better than "Stefania".
* Spain is my guilty pleasure. I don't know how well "Zorra" is gonna do, but it's one that gives me "slay" energy (a little bit like "Because of You" from last year). I'm gonna be rooting for this one hard!
* Norway, last but not least. Very fun to see them use 100% Norwegian for this song! Unfortunately, I don't see it being a winner, but I can see it being remembered for its mix of modern and tradition (like "Shum" from 2021).

Those are my abridged thoughts for released songs. Curious for what's next! (And of course, as I'm writing this today, UK releases the title of their song "Dizzy". Not liking the title, but maybe it will catch me off-guard like "I Wrote a Song".)

I watched a good share of furry youtubers (Biogodz, Majira Strawberry, Doryuu) when I began discovering the fandom in high school. I would watch furry comedy skits, dance vids, and art tutorials, but never thought YouTube was a thing I would do. It wasn't until I discovered a few furry visual novel YouTubers (Vivian Jade, UkieKooki, Blaidd Llywd) that I considered doing YouTube. They got me into reading VN's. Whenever I read a VN on my own, I would check their channels to see how they read it and reacted. The more I compared and contrast their deliveries to my own, the more I thought "hey! Why don't I try this?". It took me a few years (2018) before I decided to take the jump and try, and the rest is history!
