I tend to listen to an audiobook when my brain is not at its most Capitalism, for lack of a better way to put it. A show in the background sounds pretty good, but I found that I just couldn't follow it as well. I felt like I needed to be looking at it, which didn't really help me as much. Audiobooks are better for me.
Printing and filing sounds like a great choice. I also like to focus on things with pretty simple, reliable steps, rather than things I need to really figure out or strategize around. Folding laundry or making something I've already made before are usually pretty good options.
Following recipes or pre-selected tutorials can be okay, but only if they're pretty straightforward. Following a process with good illustrations can feel somewhat grounding for me.
You might also want to go on a short walk outside, maybe with a little quest to pull your attention on something other than yourself. A quest like 'find a leaf that is both red and yellow' or something can be nice.
As is, I try not to sink more energy into feeling bad about being a little ephemeral that day. I'm probably ephemeral because I'm tired, so resting up is an important part.
I'm sorry today is That Kind of a brain day for ya. 🖤
