      Ah, I forgot about index and didn’t know about codices.

      I’ll continue to use the plural “tissues”, though! Lol

      It’s funny to me to see someone simultaneously prescriptively linguistic enough to use a Latin pluralization but not pedantic enough to use the proper non-genericized term for tissues, haha
