From my bedroom window I can see that they've put down a thicker layer of asphalt this time, on a thicker layer of roadmetal.

Just noting, for the benefit of people who are pointing out that Hungary's PM-elect isn't some sort of progressive saint:

1. Yeah, his party is centre-right, but it's also the furthest left of the parties with seats in the new parliament.

2. Winning a two-thirds majority in a system designed to disadvantage opposition parties is a seismic shift.

3. Look back over the last century-and-a-bit of Hungarian history and you'll see the red-rag Left doing many horrible things which have not been forgotten. You'll also see the interwar fascism of the Horthy "regency" and maybe you'll agree that Hungary can have a bit of near-centrism, as a treat.

So, this is where us outsiders sit back and shut up and watch as an antidemocratic system is brought back to something resembling normality.

SA Water has sent me a text to say that they've fixed the leak. I had noticed the lack of flooding. Time will tell if they really have fixed it. I have also seen drivers speeding up to go through the four metre long roadworks zone, and I can't blame them to be honest.

I've been imagining the manglings of spacetime that would result from a vehicle exceeding 4m in length trying to deal with the front and end of the vehicle travelling at 50kph while the middle bit travels at 25kph. The mental pictures are amazing. Maybe I need to lie down in a quiet room for a while.

No more fountain, which was the point of the exercise and is good, but the dirty great hole has been filled in a manner traditionally described as 'rough as guts' so they'll be back for more. They've set up a roadworks zone with a legally-enforceable 25kph speed limit and a corresponding "END ROADWORK" sign four (4) metres further down the street.

It's a sensitive and balanced picking-over of a hellish mess, decades after the event, with the input of many eyewitnesses. It reminded me a bit of "Montaillou" in its use of archival material, but there were no survivors to interview for that one.

I can't help thinking that current events will be addressed like this one day, but I won't be around to read it.

A Malaysian Chinese friend has been seen using chopsticks to eat chips. She also finds them useful while gardening, and not only as stakes. Early training produces amazing dexterity. Me, I'll just make another mess.

I'd like some chips. There are chips in the pantry, just waiting to be consumed. I have fresh cuts on my dominant hand and have only just changed the dressings. My non-dominant hand is generally clumsy. Life is reliably cruel. Maybe I'll use chopsticks, if I can control them despite all of the Elastoplast.

I have broken my favourite glass (from despair.com, the Pessimist's Mug, with "This glass is now half-empty" etched on it) and scratched the unscratchable floor, and bled on a doorframe while trying to stem the initial bleeding. The clean-up has been the worst day of rest I've ever had, and it seems I can't even drink tap water without supervision and PPE. It's hard being me.

How nice of him to give them a treat.

The bins are out, hurrah. Now I can rest until they want to come back in. That's all I'll be dealing with today apart from mindless scrolling and such. There will be naps.

Looking over their left shoulder while turning right - crash! - oh, sorry, didn't see you. (No kidding.) That sort of thing, in various directions at various speeds.

No commentary on today's supermarket experience, it was all too depressing. Not the products, the customers. I hope they don't drive.

Righto then, I'll delay paying the thing.

It looks like I'm going to have a bad time with my [redacted] today.This is annoying. Still, it could be worse, it could be one of the other things that I routinely redact to prevent the offering of advice. The thing I'm redacting today is the least of them. And there are pills. Also crumpets, but technically they're not medication.
