One pattern in your game is "slow connections": moves 65 133 157 165
You instinctively/automatically connect while there is no cut or there's a much more efficient way to defend against any possible cut in the future.
My recommendation for your next game is: when you are about to make a connecting move (like the ones above) pause to read the cut. If the cut doesn't work, don't connect. If it works, connect. If you can't read it out, decide if you want to take the risk.

I made a couple of comments on the early play

Yes I now have new insight into how to think about blocking and which extra moves to play. Thank you.
