As per usual: the zilch that was appearing in the longterm project pages prior to working on a deadlined something else for a couple of days was amplified to be, instead of a hodgepodge of rhythmic drivel in my brain, a zilch in said brain, a – if not the – signal that the time has come to accept that I've invested enough time in longterm project for now and that it's time to move on to something else; I've no interest in another seven-year paragraph – it all feels so long ago (nine years, to be exact, since its start) – so, ok, next steps: shift files around, move some things to backburner/purgatory, and move on into whatever the next thing will be via a reconceptualization of previous concepts.
