The Bloody Ploughman apples came up small this year, but they’re finally ripening. Bright cold morning.
TODAY:
- Bluesky Hits 40 Million Users, Introduces ‘Dislikes’ Beta
- Can a dopamine detox reset your brain? Taken literally, the idea makes no sense. But it might still be good for you

OPERATIONS: Catching up, as previously noted. Also I need to swap out the earbuds on the mp3 player, because they’re just fucking annoying, and load up another SD card with music – one for recent purchases, one for Davachi/Vantzou/Malone/Radigue, I think. I need to go back into a couple of old notebooks later to find some project notes.
STATUS: Finally fixed sleep – 8hrs 14mins – inbox 94 and about to get shredded. Newsletter is in the pipe for tomorrow. Printer has finally decided it hates the off-brand matte photo paper I’m using and so I’ve had to order different stuff, because printers are all sent from hell
