okay approximately 4.5 hours of current-season TV to watch, 22 tags, at a rate of one or two tags per commercial break I should have both finished at the same time

<,< and I have spsent the first hour desperately trying to A, get my phone back on again or B, to drain the battery, because one of the pre-'take it apart' suggestions for this problem is to let the battery drain to the point where the phone powers down, leave it down for about an hour and then charge it all the way back to full

I mean, I don't know how that will work if it's a broken connection from fall damage or actual failing/totally burnt out lcd, but I'm trying anything that isn't taking it apart

nope, didn't work, and while I didn't really think it would, I was still hopeful

I only got ten tags left!

my non-Cal tags are all from the 7th and later, which is good!

and I want to do them, but brain is going: "NO! WE DID HALF! THAT'S ENOUGH!"

so I'ma get a beverage and watch a teevee and see what happens after
