I can't access anything in my Google Drive because I can't get a secure connection with Google. And all of the drafts I am currently working on are only on my Drive so I'm screwed for now. Oh goody!

Usually when I see people posting aurora pics on social media and go out to look for myself, I can't tell if I actually saw anything. Not tonight!

(No pics, sorry)

Having one of those puzzle days where I'm wrestling with an intransigent data set. How can it be this hard to find a T in this wordlist?

My testsolver's partner Cheshire said of an upcoming puzzle: "Nathan is kind of person to put bananas in a cryptic that are actual bananas and I appreciate it"
