Birthday tomorrow! And what now?

So yeah my birthday is tomorrow. Yayz! I'll be at work, unfortunately.
Next, what is wrong with the FA interface now? I logged on today and suddenly some buttons aren't in the interface anymore. I can't "select", "deselect", or "invert selection" for notices or submissions in my inbox, but I can check them one at a time and remove them. The nuke works. So what changed in the past day that made these buttons suddenly not work...in Firefox only? Because they're still there in Chrome.
Considering that the site still functions perfectly normally on Chrome, and Firefox is notifying me that there's suddenly a new script being blocked on Furaffinity, I can guess what the change was. I've had scriptblocker on Firefox since I got this computer, and the only time before now that I've had to block anything on FA was when they tried to clandestinely put in whatever that program was that donates a few pennies to the site anytime you make a purchase through a link originating here on FA. That change triggered Scriptblocker and I didn't know why at the time, until Dragoneer announced the change a few days later on his journal.
So, other than that, I've never had anything else to block on this site and the "check all" buttons always worked. Now they're part of a script that's being blocked. Now I'm not all that computer savvy, so the two obvious things that could have changed are 1: An update to scriptblocker now includes whatever script was part of the FA code to select all submissions...or 2: FA changed the way the site handles the "select all" buttons and it was something apparently non-script that has now been updated to a script blocked by scriptblocker.
Which is it?

FA+
