Twitch is down for streaming and viewing

We may have to postpone the #PUBGFamilyDinner tonight because the Twitch livestreaming service is down for a lot of people. This outage is preventing broadcasters from publishing new streams, and it is also keeping viewers from tuning into their favorite channels.

The issue is not affecting everyone, but many (including me) cannot get the Twitch front page or any individual channel to load. I also attempted to start a stream, and it seemed like it was working — but the dashboard I use to manager our livestreams would not load. Even the Twitch app is behaving oddly.
