Is anyone else mildly unsettled by the implication that this is going to be the last Thursday the 20th

I try to stick to that perspective. /End ID]

Periodically I'll google Irish email etiquette because I can never remember the sign-offs and it will be perpetually entertaining to me when they translate Beir bua as Best wishes.
I'm sorry, I'm a medievalist, and this phrase is literally in Oidheadh Con Culainn:
ALT"Best wishes". What a funny way to tell somebody to take victory!
Anyway, this is how I read emails with Irish salutations:
O Ruairi, my ally,
I hope this email finds you willing to aid me in battle. If you're still open to sending me those unpublished editions you're working on, I would be incredibly grateful, as they'd help a lot with my research.
Take victory,
Finn

So I thought this was commonly known internet navigation (but apparently it might just be those of us who have been using the internet since the 90’s who still know it). Or so it seems based on… a grumpy comment I got.
When you see an arrow like this:
It means you click it to expand out a hidden section.
It’s an accordion section/menu! It’s useful in web design to hide information that may be overwhelming under specific headers so people can only see what they need.
Here I’m using it for people who need the content warnings to be able to check, but for those who don’t need them and don’t want to be spoiled to just move right past without accidentally reading anything.
It’s still the user’s responsibility to click the arrow and read things as they need! But it is all warned. (And, yes, the all encompassing issues are already a tag on the fic, I’m just providing additonal warnings per chapter.)
Ah, sorry yes! For those who want the html, it’s the details and summary tags!
Holy shit?? I didn’t know AO3 could do this. This is so useful!
Support for <details> was added about a year ago, and more people should definitely know about it!
YOOOOOO I JUST GOT MY FIRST LIBRARY CARD SINCE LIKE 2007 IT WAS SO EASY???
Like they literally just needed any photo ID with an address, I thought they needed like unopened mail and paperwork and crap, it took 5 goddamn minutes, I did it on my way home from work
And was NOBODY gonna tell me libraries have websites now with ebooks and audiobooks and documentaries and British TV and shit???
Why the FUCK have I been paying Netflix
