I was very indecisive about what I wanted to make today for GAPP, so here's a puzzle which reflects that conundrum! 🕜 It's a variant of an old crowd favorite, put your thinking caps on for Nurikabe (Either/Or)!

Rules: Shade some cells so that all shaded cells form one orthogonally connected area. Clues cannot be shaded, and every orthogonally connected area of unshaded cells contains exactly two clues, at least one of which must represent the size of the area. No 2x2 region may be entirely shaded.
