Get better blinds.

You can get thermal protection ones to reduce heat uptake.

There are other options like window films.

Any cables at the back will give enough gap.

I rarely open the blinds in my office room.

The blinds are blackout but not thermal protection. Never heard of them. Will have a look but don't suspect they'll be cheap.

Window film was considered. We have it out back for the annoying kids from the house who join on to our back wall but opted against it on the front of the house. For 1) it makes things dimmer. We need to use the lights in the kitchen now at times where we previously didn't need to and 2) At night when it's dark out, you can no longer see anything out but everyone can see everything in - if the interior lights are on.

get some "sky hooks". Ask at any building suppliers.

Are they next to the tartan paint and the long stands?  

Many years ago our local paper printed a well-written article as an April Fools joke about a shop selling tartan paint. I cut the article out so the date wasn't on it, and showed it to a few (non-local) friends and relatives. You wouldn't believe how many were taken in; some for a very short time of course, but not all!

It's a tiny computer room does not even need a window.

Mine is south facing with wooden venetian it's fine.

Just keep your blinds closed all the time.
