Stereogum Vocalizer

Too busy to read 500+ comments? Get your computer to read them to you. Good for multitasking, so people can keep up with the comments while making breakfast, fixing a car, trading GME stonks, or whatever other activities are keeping people busy these days.

This extension is intended to be used for article pages with comments on the stereogum.com web site. Its main inspiration is specifically from the "The Number Ones" columns, which usually inspire its readers to leave more than 300 comments on a typical day. But it can be used for the other parts of stereogum.com. If you need this because you're too busy to read 12 comments, a suggestion it might be time to reevaluate your priorities.

Each "Play" button plays all the comments headed by the button's comment.

The "Play" button next to the number of comments at the top of the comments plays them all.

The "Pause" button pauses play. Play resumes when either the "Pause" or "Play" buttons are pressed.

The "Stop" button stops playing the current comment, and all other comments in the thread.

The "Rewind" button goes to the start of the previous comment in the current thread. If pressed on the first comment, it restarts it.

The "Fast Forward" button goes to the next comment. If there isn't one, it stops playback.
