const old = document.getElementById(ID);
if (old) { old.remove(); }
else {
  const s = document.createElement('style');
  s.id = ID;
  s.textContent =
    '.spacer{height:0!important}' +
    '.athing{padding:0!important}' +
    '.titleline a{font-size:10pt!important;line-height:1.2!important}' +
    '.subtext{font-size:7.5pt!important}' +
    '.rank{font-size:8pt!important}';
  document.head.appendChild(s);
}

Does this example work?

Snippets are useless without somewhere to paste them.

JustZix takes 2 minutes to install and runs your code on every matching page. No account, no payment.
