+  THIS IS A MESS BECAUSE EFFING MASTODON AND ITS EFFING HTML BIOS
+  INSTEAD OF JUST STORING EVERYTHING IN PLAIN EFFING TEXT ! ! ! !
+  BLANK LINES ALSO WON'T WORK BECAUSE RIGHT NOW MASTODON CONVERTS
+  THOSE INTO `<P>` ELEMENTS INSTEAD OF LEAVING IT AS `<BR><BR>` !
+  TL:DR; THIS IS LARGELY A HACK. WITH BETTER BACKEND STUFF WE CAN
+  IMPROVE THIS BY BETTER PREDICTING HOW THE METADATA WILL BE SENT
+  WHILE MAINTAINING BASIC PLAIN-TEXT PROCESSING. THE OTHER OPTION
+  IS TO TURN ALL BIOS INTO PLAIN-TEXT VIA A TREE-WALKER, AND THEN
+  PROCESS THE YAML AND LINKS AND EVERYTHING OURSELVES. THIS WOULD
+  BE INCREDIBLY COMPLICATED, AND IT WOULD BE A MILLION TIMES LESS
+  DIFFICULT IF MASTODON JUST GAVE US PLAIN-TEXT BIOS (WHICH QUITE
+  FRANKLY MAKES THE MOST SENSE SINCE THAT'S WHAT USERS PROVIDE IN
+  SETTINGS) TO BEGIN WITH AND LEFT ALL PROCESSING TO THE FRONTEND
+  TO HANDLE ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
+  ANYWAY I KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE REGARDING BACKEND STUFF BUT
+  I'M NOT SMART ENOUGH TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO ACTUALLY IMPLEMENT IT
+  SO FEEL FREE TO @ ME IF YOU NEED MY IDEAS REGARDING THAT. UNTIL
+  THEN WE'LL JUST HAVE TO MAKE DO WITH THIS MESSY AND UNFORTUNATE
+  HACKING ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! !
