I'm increasingly frustrated by basically everything, everywhere. Pep Guardiola's extraordinary press conference felt worth speaking about. youtube.com/live/9rJ3hR_...

Been feeling particularly irritated over the past week or so, and I've just realised it's the Epstein stuff. Remember when the idea that a bunch of child abusing elites were secretly running the world was conspiracy theory fodder for the nutter at the pub? Oh it was all actually true.

All these tiny kids sat numbly staring into phones or tablets for hours on end while out in public, totally disconnected from society. Child abuse IMO.

"To accept the world that these AI companion apps dangle in front of us is to accept that the bastardized images of ourselves reflected back to us are more worthwhile than the true friendship of other humans. This idea is one that we must consistently reject.."

"didn't do me any harm" they say... but I can absolutely guarantee one of the following - divorced/history of poor relationships/anger management issues/struggles around employment/drinks too much/barely ever speak to their kids. Delete as applicable. Absolutely mental that anyone can justify it.

My little lad has started preschool (he's been at home with my for just under three years)...the realisation that from this moment onwards I'll spend less time with him every week on average has absolutely destroyed me. Why does parenting have to be so brutal man 😭

I really enjoyed Fantastic Four! Such a wonderfully breezy & fun film. Was it perfect? Of course not, but it felt so refreshing given where the MCU has headed...and that soundtrack. Oh man. Bombast at its best with such an all timer of a hook. Gets my blood flowing. Just screams wonder & adventure.

Earphones in ignoring their kids when on a pram walk, tablet out when they're in a car or out eating, glued to screens when at home, phones immediately in their hands when they know how to use them. Is it any wonder kids are growing nervous of social interactions? So frustrating to witness.

Surprised myself by not really pushing my son towards football yet. He's 3 in a few months and I've not sat & watched a game with him yet. He knows what football is if he sees me watching it but his interest in kicking a ball lasts a few seconds. I guess it comes naturally? Dunno.

Obviously it's a long way away for us, given our oldest isn't even three yet, but how have you guys found dealing with the smart phone issue with your kids? Genuinely hoping there are decent societal reforms by the time they're grown up. Don't want our sons anywhere near phones until near adulthood.

DK Bananza has got me gagging for a new Banjo-Kazooie. Obviously the mechanics are v different, but there's just sumat about the mood and level design that feels so so similar. Nowt has reminded me of it more than this. It's what Banjo-Tooie should have been when it tried for the bigger level thing.

Can anyone see any way out of the mess this country is in politically any time soon? The country is very obviously reaching a boiling point and there are incredibly vocal and angry voices on both sides of the political spectrum. It's going to explode and it's going to be very ugly.

Steven McInerney @stevenmcinerney.bsky.social · 22/07/2025

Starting to feel for me that BlueSky is the app I prefer to have discussions around things that actually matter away from football. Impossible to have mature, reasoned discussions over on the other place. Just too much hate/negativity. Here you can without having to block half of the repliers.

My two year old had the start of a severe allergic reaction last night. We rang 999 and I had to administer the EpiPen. He thankfully settled very quickly and was taken for observations and was fine etc. NGL, I definitely feel traumatised by it though. We're not even 100% sure what caused it.

Steven McInerney @stevenmcinerney.bsky.social · 18/07/2025

DK Bananza is a proper video game. Feels like I'm back playing something on the N64 again. It's incredible. Banjo-Kazooie with the scope of Mario Odyssey, the fun of the Galaxy games and the physics and creativity of the modern Zelda games...and Minecraft? Utterly engrossed by it already.

Something has been off about the entire Florian Wirtz saga, for me, it's Bayern using the German media as a tool. Manchester City have reportedly made their move for Wirtz, I'm not prepared to make a call that we'll get him or not just yet. esteemedkompany.com/2025/05/13/s...

Something smells about the Florian Wirtz transfer saga that is unfolding.

Oscar Bobb and the season that never was, which leaves more questions than answers. 24/25 was poised to Bobb's breakout season until it wasn't.

I liked the way Guardiola used McAtee yesterday. He was the one who took up the 9 positions most often as De Bruyne played the False 9 role. As Pep would say ‘he has the smell of goals’. You can look at the next clips as a catalogue of misses or intelligent play to get those chances 1/

Here's a grim Friday morning thought for you all - we have 1000% peaked as a civilised species. We'll do smarter things, sure, but we'll never be nicer to each other collectively than we were a decade or so ago ever again IMO. Truly believe it's only downhill from here.

Only realising this since becoming a dad, but society really isn't set up to help families/parents flourish is it? It's a cruel, heartless system that expects people to hand kids off to strangers at the earliest possible opportunity. Absence has been normalised, even encouraged. Breaks my heart.

Not really a firm believer in karma, but if it exists I reckon you could make a strong case that it's hit Walker big time. He should have had a glorious Etihad send off given his ability, but in the end he was snuck out the back door. It's entirely down to his own character & decision making. Shame

Anyone else dome the 'stay at home' dad/mum thing? Done it for over a year now as nursery didn't work for us & I can work evenings, but honestly it's by far the most exhausting thing I've ever done. Ha. Ruben isn't difficult either. He's wonderful just parenting - I love it, but it's relentless.

Pep vague on Grealish not being involved today saying he doesn't know...not reassuring at all.
