Some sites break when you disable javascript, but guardian.com instead starts working.

Thanks for the tip! I thought I had every extension for finer control, but I guess I hadn't thought of one that just disables javascript, and you're right, it does just work on that site.

I'm using ublock origin to disable JS globally and re-enable it per-site from the popup. I didn't realize it could do that until I read the manual.

Ahh, yeah, that's much more convenient, saves having another icon in the already crowded extension bar.

simping for the establishment by... pointing out how the ultra wealthy produce much more emissions than most people and thus cause disproportionate climate harms that they themselves will be able to avoid many of with their massive wealth?
