Took me until about halfway through college before I realized âstudyâ means âplay with the material in a variety of ways until you understand itâ and not just âread the assigned chapters and do the homeworkâ and I think that probably should have been discussed at some point prior to that.

Chrome extensions I actually use as a mentally ill university student
Making websites easier to digest:
Dark Reader - Changes any webpage to dark mode.
Mercury Reader - Simplifies the layout of any webpage to eliminate distractions and irritating formatting.
Podcastle AI - Turns any article into a podcast. This is a lifesaver for being able to process what Iâm reading, to be honest.
Spelling/grammar:
LanguageTool - Spelling and grammar check for those of us who regularly type in more than one language.
Grammarly - Spelling and grammar check for those of us who only type in English. Can be used with LanguageTool installed, which is what I do.
Google Dictionary - Define any word on the webpage with a double-click.
Google Translate - Translate an entire webpage or even just a short segment.
Misc:
AdGuard Adblocker - After trying quite a few adblocker options, this is the one I find the best.
The Great Suspender - Automatically suspend inactive tabs to help with performance. <- as an edit, I donât believe this is available anymore
Honey - Try coupon codes automatically to save money on online purchases.
Built-in Chrome tab grouping - Group your tabs to keep organized and minimize distracting clutter.

Do me a favour today, please. Do me a favour and educate yourself on what happened in Srebrenica 25 years ago. Do me a favour and care, despite my country not being a major one like the US or UK or whatever. Do me a favour and read about what happened, how our people were killed, how there are still so many people who have not been identified and families who have never and will never receive closure. Do me that favour, please.
And do me another favour and never forget.
