LAST UPDATED: APRIL 2, 2020 — NOTE: It's like ten pm and honestly that's not even that late but I've been editing this thing for like... uh... fifteen mins, and that's not that much, but my eyes are going crazy so... yeah. I was gonna post this on April 1st, but then I was like... my readers might think that this is a prank (although I'm not sure how it would be) so I just saved myself the pain of having to explain it wasn't a prank.

LAST UPDATED: AUGUST 17, 2022 — NOTE: This this has literally doubled in length, which just goes to show how many things I forgot the last time. Also, WOW. Look at that time difference. 2020 to 2022. Anyway, if I messed something up or forgot to add something, feel free to let me know!
