    I'm kind of sad about this. I always liked looking at comments. People would point out small details that I missed, or help to explain/theorize when an episode was confusing. I rarely, if ever saw someone say anything bad. This might be biased in that I tended to watch more niche Slice of Life/Drama shows, rather than the big popular action shows.

    They were all broken for a while, but some of them work now. I use the vaft Ublock Origin script from the TwitchAdSolutions Github, which reduces the video quality while ads are playing significantly, but the audio is still there. Kind of scuffed, but I'll take what I can get.

    I really like my Kindle Paperwhite. I upgraded recently from an earlier version because I wanted the warm light setting. I don't really buy many books, but I instead get a bunch from borrowing from my local library online. I may get a Kobo in the future to support someone other than Amazon. Prior to my e-reader, I felt like it was pretty cumbersome to hold the thick fantasy books that I tend to read, so an e-reader was a welcome change.
