🧬 Human 🚀 Technologist 🔴 Liverpool FC
This sums up the world in an absolute nutshell. Anger fuels clicks that further invoke anger, algorithms serving increasingly polarising volumes of content. People are no longer on two sides of a single mounting, the summit being a common ground. People are climbing two very different mountains.
A long read from Tomkins but a good piece. Strangely applicable to many more contexts outside LFC.

🚨 Novel idea 🚨 Irrespective of your feelings towards Slot, it appears the board are giving him at least until the end of the season. No Liverpool fan on the planet will not be disappointed with the season we are having. But as a human, you have choices.

Me looking at the list of ‘latest podcasts’ to fall asleep to:
- Liverpool bore draw
- Gross negligence has Liverpools transfer planning failed
- AI and the new-face of antisemitism
- the man BBC censored for calling Trump corrupt .
Depressing times folks. Stay positive.

20mins in and they’re yet to talk about the fact things actually are improving on pitch, that relationships are forming, Kirkez is getting better, even if results aren’t.
‘Fucking sort it out Liverpool’
Can’t say I’ll be listening to many more TAW podcasts if they carry on like this.

Listening to TAW Post Match show. We get it, you don’t want Slot to be the manager. You can’t prefix it with ‘I don’t want to be Slot out or disrespectful’ having slagged him off for 15 minutes. #LFC

It's a bit maddening because Liverpool just keep doing things mostly right. There are way more signs showing we're going in the right direction than the opposite. Keep the faith at all cost.

In almost every way, this is what a very good performance looks like. If you remove the scoreline from it, it's good stuff.
Chances, shape, danger zones, involvements are all good.
The worrying things:
-The substitutions are vibey and momentum-killing.
-Szoboszlai being just ok is not enough.

When you really want your team to find a winner, because they’re the team you support, but more so because your brain can’t handle the social media meltdown of another draw against a crap side. #LFC

I wonder what would happen if a Liverpool player attacked the near post once in a while? #LFC
