Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent challenged by Senator Elizabeth Warren over Trumps stock trades.
Ghost
Bessent is a despicable piece of shit. The arrogance oozing from him as he bare face lies is an appalling sight.
Gemma
I am not a violent person, but I would like to slap something into his smug, stupid face. It's not as though his answers were as smart as he obviously thought they were.

Fictionalised account of the rise and fall of Vladislav Surkov, the man responsible not just for Putin, but for the dark arts of media manipulation. Paul Dano is a bit of a void in the lead role (perhaps deliberately), but Jude Law is terrific as Putin.
Based on the book of the same title by Giuliano da Empoli , which is an excellent read

Title: Spider-Noir
Genre: Crime, Drama, Mystery
Creator: Oren Uziel
First aired: 25 May 2026
Last air date: 25 May 2026
Overview: Ben Reilly, an aging and down on his luck private investigator in 1930s New York, is forced to grapple with his past life as the city's one and only superhero.
Franco Pinion
I watched the first 3 episodes and thought it was fantastic. I watched it in black and white as I assumed that was the intended way to watch it. I've never heard of Spider Noir before. I don't read comics, and I don't remember him being mentioned in any live-action stuff. I'm looking forward to finishing it off.
Dylan
It really builds and gets better with each episode. Cage is magnificent. Gleeson is excellent as always. Watched in B&W, will probably rewatch an episode in colour for comparison but B&W is the way to go.
Arne Slot has been sacked as Liverpool head coach.
The decision has been taken by owner Fenway Sports Group after a dismal season saw Liverpool finish fifth in the Premier League with just 60 points, their lowest total for a decade.
It brings to an end the Dutchman's two-year reign since he was appointed as Jurgen Klopp's successor in the summer of 2024.
Initially, the transition was seamless as the former Feyenoord boss surpassed all expectations in leading Liverpool to Premier League title glory in his first season at the helm.
However, their fortunes nosedived in 2025-26 with 19 defeats in all competitions, with 12 league losses in comparison to only four the term before.
"That this was a difficult decision for us to make as a club goes without saying," a joint statement from Liverpool's owner's read on Saturday.
"The contribution Arne has made to Liverpool FC in the time that he has been with us has been significant, meaningful and – most importantly of all to supporters and ourselves – successful.
"At the same time, we have collectively come to the conclusion that change is necessary in order for the club to keep moving forward.
"We would like to take this opportunity to place on record our appreciation for Arne, who will always hold a special place in the history of this football club as the coach who delivered Liverpool's 20th league title.
"That accomplishment – made all the more remarkable as it arrived in his very first season in charge – was built on outstanding coaching and leadership every single day.
"He also helped guide the club through one of the most difficult periods imaginable following the loss of Diogo. The compassion and humanity he showed throughout that time said a great deal about him as a person.
"As such, we can only wish Arne well in the next stage of his coaching career, with our expectation being that he will continue to be successful. We do so in the knowledge that his Liverpool legacy is intact and will become yet more meaningful in the years and decades to come.
"Nevertheless, the conclusion we have come to is built on a belief that the team's trajectory is best addressed through a change of direction. That does not diminish the work Arne has done here, or the respect we have for him. Nor is it a reflection of his talents. Rather, it is indicative of the need for a different approach."

Liverpool has officially appointed Andoni Iraola as their new head coach. Iraola, known for his tactical acumen and ability to inspire players, steps into a role that carries high expectations. His appointment signals Liverpool's intent to revitalise their performance and push for success in the upcoming season.
Dylan
I hope he succeeds, but Klopp started to find out it's unsustainable playing that style of football playing 60 games a season now with the whole league stepping up in terms of quality.
It will be interesting to see how Iraola can adapt his tactics around the extra 20 games a season, especially with Liverpool's injury prone squad.
Just hope they give him more time than what the board and fans gave Slot

Couple of things annoying me today.
Firstly, I ordered a new wireless keyboard and mouse online. It was dispatched last Friday and I still haven't received it. My tracking app said it had been collected by the courier on Saturday and was on route. On Tuesday, the app updated to say they couldn't deliver it and I needed to contact the sender immediately. Did this, the sender said they would create a case file and find out what was going on and get back in touch with me within 36 hours. I'm still waiting.
Secondly, somewhat trivial but I've been reading through comments and suggestions on xenForo.com (our forum software) about an upcoming major software update and, to be honest, I just want to tell them all to shut the fuck up. Never seen so much pettiness. If some of these people are forum admins I dread to think what their forums are like. I honestly think most of them want the software tailored to their needs and their needs only.

Overview: In a seemingly perfect retirement community, a crew of unlikely heroes must stop an otherworldly threat from stealing the one thing they don't have: time.
Did anyone else immediately work out that the 'hotel guest' (in the shirt and tie) wasn't actually there? It felt like a not-so-subtle nod to The Shining.
