The amusing part is that Bellingham remained completely anonymous for 90 minutes until his tap-in. Yet, we’ll be inundated with images of his arms-aloft celebration, dominating our feeds until the next football news cycle takes over.

The best description I’ve heard of this city team is still my sister-in-law’s analogy “It’s like in Space Jam when they lose their powers.” Bernardo, KDB, Kovacic, and Gundogan all need to be put out to pasture.

"We'll win 6-1 and still go out over two legs," I joked. Then, yet again, we crumbled spectacularly at the end. A tragicomedy on repeat. Turning out to be quite the season.

VAR has ruined football, get me back watching League 1.

Ebele’s piece on aesthetic exile rang true. Curating a world of taste as a shield from chaos. But is it resistance or detachment? Thoreau’s Walden wasn’t about escape but intention. Gardening, cooking, running - my own forms of retreat, offer not rejection, but clarity protein.xyz/aesthetic-exile

Aesthetic Exile

The excitement and dangers of 'good taste’ – and the urge to retreat from it.

Cut down on your news consumption. While some may scorn blissful ignorance, the reality is that your power to effect change is limited. However, by choosing not to know, you might find yourself feeling far less anxious, and this lack of awareness doesn't diminish your ability to make a difference.

Having made the switch to Apple Music, I do miss my playlists and be damned if I spend the years, months and hours rebuilding them however it’s got me back into appreciating albums again. Listening to tracks collated as the artist intended.

I’ve just tuned into "Kin." Initially, I was a bit sceptical, but it’s turning out to be a decent watch. It serves as the perfect diversion from the dismal football tonight.

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 02/02/2025

The amount of stick I’m getting from Arsenal fans. Most amusing, I very much doubt they’ll win anything this season. We’re crap at the minute, the fact they didn’t even have to work for that is embarrassing.

22 miles clocked for the week, nice 10 miles this morning. Getting race ready 🏃‍♂️

We survived January but it has dragged on like an endless saga. Yet, amidst scratched-out to-do lists, there’s some optimism. Perhaps 2025 will finally offer some respite from the usual chaos. I can dream, can’t I?

290 days sober today. I can’t see myself going back. 💪

Well I think that’s it. Can’t see Eagles giving this one up. I like Jayden Daniels. Feel for him, his team letting him down

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Tom Brady is great on co-comms too. The NFL coverage on Sky Sports in the studio is so good as well.

Wow what a championship game this is. Let’s go Eagles!!

Guardiola name checked Neil Warnock this week, he would have been very pleased with those goals today. Text book English football. Love to see it.

The wardrobe choices from the Sky Sports Studio this evening is hilarious. Kelly Cates off to a night at the proms, Gary Cahill dragged backwards through Burtons and Redknapp in the M&S specials 😂

I’m going for it. Pulling the plug on Spotify. Apple one is better value.

000

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

The user experience of Spotify just gets progressively worst. I’m too invested to leave but could be persuaded to. Apple Music, what are you saying?

You know what would be really funny, if Man City signed Kobiee Mainoo.

In our media-saturated age, award shows seem like relics of a bygone TV era. Who are they for now? They were big tune-in events, capturing our collective gaze. Do the Brits or Oscars still captivate, or are they echoes of another time?

Every January me and the wife have the same conversation; “why do we live here again?”

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 23/01/2025

I’ve been sober for nine months now, and I’m fed up with drinking “soft drinks” during these dark winter days. So, I discovered herbal tea. I’m not ashamed of it; I’m becoming a tea connoisseur, living out a strange Nigel Slater winter fantasy.

Given the impending weather this weekend, it feels like the perfect time to finally watch Severance.

The Man City collapse. It’s criminal really, how can we keep on doing this to ourselves.

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

If we don’t sign some midfielders, Pep needs to pull the trigger on these old horses and play the kids. Bernado, Kova, Gundo need to make way.

000

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Bernado has done nothing second half, you wouldn’t even know he’s on the pitch. Sadly, his legs have gone. This game is being played at a ferocious pace.

000

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Kovacic too slow, can’t handle the pace of this game

000

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Yes Jackie Boy!! Blue moon!!!

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

A rare half time substitution from Pep and a double no less.

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

VAR rubbish if you’re in the stadium but quite the relief when you are at home. 😅

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

Just as I posted that, they score.

Nick Lewis @nickoluigi.bsky.social · 22/01/2025

With all this fawning over PSG, you’d forget there’s two teams in this game and Man City look very comfortable. KDB playing well and City have had good chances. It’s very even.
