Currently in the hospital after dealing with a neutropenic fever (fun fact: somewhere around 106.3f your brain can no longer form coherent speech) stemming from way-too-stronk chemo. I concur, fuck cancer.

do not let "perfect" be the enemy of "good enough"

edit: quick addendum, I really cannot stress this enough, everyone who says nuclear is an imperfect solution and just kicks the can down the road -- yes, it does, it kicks it a couple thousand years away as opposed to within the next hundred years. We can use all that time to perfect solar and wind, but unless we get really lucky and get everyone on board with solar and wind right now, the next best thing we can hope for is more time.

I use ReVanced and love it. Works great, though you do need to do some fiddling to set it up. Once it's installed, though, it's just regular YouTube with all the bullshit stripped out. You can even remove features you don't like, like the Shorts page or the Cast button. And it's got patches for SponsorBlock and Return YouTube Dislike.

Mullvad VPN also includes the ability to block all ads at the DNS level, so if you don't already have a VPN (or if you're not happy with your current one), I highly recommend it. Great VPN, great speed, great company.
