Strange… when I posted, the last post was from October. I’m usually pretty good at referencing previous posts… or avoiding reposting current events. Apologies.

(Things have strange the last few days. I had to log back into my account on different devices. Maybe I have to manually-refresh old pages or else clear my cookies.)
