non temperature management related stuff that helped me endure the 12 day heatwave: knitting at the beginning but i ran out of yarn reading witch hat atelier reading wild dark shore watching almost the entirety of smallant's blue prince playthrough exercises on the mandolin lots of backgammon (almost reached 1600 rating! but back to 1400s) and quite a big one: a not very efficient, but a very meditative way of journaling. one letter per square, then color in the spaces between words. that way i still express something, but it really doesn't have to be a lot to fill up the whole page. carefully color things in, arrive at a pattern. it's also cool to see the patterns on either side of a page interact through their ghosting. just a way to slow down and not escape from the discomfort. and with so much ink to use up i don't feel very wasteful, seeing so much color on a page. back to diary back home
