Rules: Normal Sudoku / Normal Variant rules apply.
Normal: Place the digits 1 to 9 once each in every row, column, and 3x3 box.
Region Sum Lines – Box borders divide blue lines into sections with equal sums. Blue lines and their section sums may be the same as or different from other blue lines and their section sums.
Slow Thermometer – Digits may not decrease as they move along the thermo from the bulb end.
Commentary Corner: Just exploring combining 2 constraints. Easy Peasy.

What a fun combination, I enjoyed how different it felt from traditional region sum lines!
