Hello. Young kids back in school are so sick right now. Everyone with a preschooler has an entire household of sleepless viral cough snot fevers for the past two months without a fucking break. So if you know a parent going through this, be kind and gently hit them with your car.

My unpopular opinion: people who use ad blockers, how do you figure producers should cover their costs and keep making things for you to read / view for free? How is this not the Tragedy of the Commons?
