Poor individual showings are rewarded. Good individual showings are ignored. Man management is, from the outside looking in, awful. So while there might not be 'better' options out there, I'm not sure how Slot sticks around.

That's the biggest red flag, imo. You can't just ride this out and assume we'll figure it out because I genuinely don't think Slot has actually figured out what he wants. The strikers are feeding off of scraps and now we're seeing diminishing returns from Salah.

We've seen absolutely nothing to suggest Arne Slot knows how to get the best out of the £400m worth of talent we signed and we're almost into December. That's a bigger concern than the results. There's nothing to point to poor performance being tied to transition.

Arne's face. Bloody heartbreaking, this. He knows it's the end. He brought us number 20, I'll be forever grateful 💔 #LFC

PSV weren't even playing the type of long-ball stuff that teams have used to get at Liverpool this season, and still won.

Not sure Konate's strategy of being incredibly shit and expecting Real Madrid to still want him at the end of the season is the wisest
November 26, 2025 at 9:57 PM
Yeah it’s terminal. No solutions to problems which have existed since March, which means he’s not the right man anymore
Haven’t seen the highlights yet but yeah, nah, sorry Arne, I don’t think you’re gonna be the one to fix this

Some early holiday reading:

I spoke with Aleister Black about his return to WWE, being able to tell long form stories, what he loved about his time in NXT, finally get to work with his wife, and so much more. sports.yahoo.com/wrestling/ar...
Inside the mind of Aleister Black: WWE's dark artist knows how fragile second chances can be
There's nothing guaranteed about a second act in WWE. Aleister Black is doing all he can to make the most of his.

Arne Slot is a league-winning Liverpool manager, one of only two in the last 35 years, and deserves every respect. However, I'm not sure he can or should survive this. Nine defeats in 12 and seven goals conceded in the last two at Anfield. This squad is so much better than that.

Why am I so against generative AI in games?

Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.

It is incredibly funny that they split, proved within two weeks that they didn’t have a scooby what they were doing and Zack Polanski then outshone them with a week’s work of social media outreach
I ENTIRELY understand why a party way to the left of Labour needs to exist.

I have NO IDEA why it needs to be Your Party, other than ego.

The Greens are RIGHT THERE. Corbyn will be 78 at the next election. And it's a shambles. Give up, lads.

Most of the ideas mentioned in this article—higher minimum wage, free tuition at public colleges, higher taxes on the rich—are not only popular now but were realities in the past, including in NYC, during the booming postwar years, when America was “great.”/1

I’m begging all you Trump ‘resisters’ to stop using fake AI slop, AI memes & AI vids. You’re helping generate bribes for him & benefitting his AI Tech Bros, & most importantly you’re destroying the livelihoods of creatives, such as graphic designers, etc.

In fact, you’re no better than he is.

There’s a reason young people from other countries are posting about Mamdani winning like they’re New Yorkers, and it’s because it proved a left-wing socialist campaign based on a nice person hitting relevant issues is a capable counter to fascism, even in the city built on American capitalism
