The accessibility for the blind advent calendar: day 13 - Sweden - expand the content warning to open the window for today
Today's one might be familiar to some of you as this has received a bit of media attention bacccccccccccccccccback in 2016 when Sweden hosted the Eurovision Song Contest.
To celebrate another win, for the time of the contest's duration, the audible traffic lights at some of Stockholm's locations have been revamped to play Loreen with "Euphoria" (winner of the 2012 ESC) when the lights are red, then when they turn green, they ticked to the beat of Mans Zelmerlow's "Heroes", the song that brought the contest back to Sweden in 2015. What a fun twist on an accessibility feature!

fyi you really don't need to tell us how to open the content warning 'show more' button ;-) the content warning itself is sufficient.

@mikebabcock Thanks for the heads up. I know most users are aware of this - I meant it more as a gimmick that makes it look more like an actual calendar.
