Today I have to get the printer up and running again. Remember the days when, if you run out of coloured ink, you could still print with just the black ink? Those days are gone. If one of the four cartridges goes dry, the printer refuses to print anything – “print in black only” has been disabled.

Also, Chrome has changed the way it handles downloads, and not for the better. Old man yells at computer cloud

Computer also insists the temperature outside is at “near record lows,” but the humidity is rising regardless – 59% climbing to a probably 90. But, it looks like the rain has finished for at least a week.

ON DECK: I have three things on deck today. I would like to finish two of them, but I suspect I will only get one out, because I have a feeling it’s going to be That Kind Of Day.
INBOX: 108. It’s hopeless. I am going to have to dedicate half a day to clearing it at some point.
LISTENING: BLINDING VOID, Exit Rituals
READING: TLS
LAST WATCHED: I started AN ELEPHANT SITTING STILL, which I may not have been paying full attention to – bar one electrifying staging choice (followed by a very unclear one), it wasn’t grabbing me. Will try again.
OUTSIDE: today I have seen the term “yacht-desking” and I want to end the world

SHIPPING FORECAST: Same as last week. Bits and pieces.
