Sad news. It’s not her. The two things aren’t connected, simply statements of fact.

Mae Muller’s sarcastic track about taking revenge on an ex-boyfriend bombs in Eurovision.
A piece on the BBC website.
Mae Muller (25) was the UK’s entrant for last night’s Eurovision Song Contest, an event I can never understand being watched by music lovers. She ended the night in 25th place out of 26. Her song was titled I Wrote a Song, an extract from the related Wiki page:

Despite the title, Muller in fact co-wrote “I Wrote a Song” in January 2023 with songwriters Karen Poole and Lewis Thompson, [J4MB: on the BBC today, it’s normal for the woman to get first billing] who all co-produced the track, with production from Alfred Parx (L Devine) and Lewis Thompson. It lyrically addresses channeling your anger and taking revenge on a cheating ex. The song runs for a total of 2 minutes and 45 seconds and explores themes of self-worth, heartbreak, and empowerment.Why did the song bomb? It’s a mystery, all right!!! Let’s do the old gender switcheroo, shall we? Let’s say the singer was a 25-year-old man, and the BBC piece included this about the song:
It lyrically addresses channeling your anger and taking revenge on a cheating ex. The song runs for a total of 2 minutes and 45 seconds and explores themes of self-worth, heartbreak, and empowerment.Hmm, I can see that going down a storm at the Eurovision. But of course the man and the song would never get to Eurovision. We note the lie implicit in the title, I Wrote a Song. It would more accurately be titled We Wrote a Song, given the credited co-writers Lewis Thompson (a person of the male persuasion) and Karen Poole. How much did Mae Muller contribute? My guess is not much, and as usual we’re seeing the conditioned pandering to female narcissism, something about which I’ll have more to say in due course, maybe at ICMI24 in Budapest.

Anya Hindmarsh (handbag designer) is a blithering idiot
Our thanks to Gerry for pointing us to a piece in the Mail with the snappy title Women should be paid more than men to compensate for the ‘burden’ of having to stay stylish by forking out for expensive wardrobes, and perfect hairdos, make-up and nails, designer Anya Hindmarch says. Gerry writes:

Style is not a burden. It is a privilege. An outward evidence of a power that creates impressions of superior class and virtue, thus cementing that privilege in place. So this brazen attempt to plunder the gullible is an exposé of the morally drunken state of feminism.

Interesting (video, 1:13:04). JBP on top form, as always. Some repetition of content, which is frustrating, but worth sticking with.
