Why can't we say "N'importe que se passe" to say "Whatever happens"
I’ve been looking for an explanation for the placement of the pink bar after the conjugation of the first person plural shown for both Prendre and Rirer. Is it just my screen or is it serving a purpose that I haven’t understood?
Est-ce qu'il y a une différence entre "futur" et "avenir"?

- Tu n’as plus de lait. [You don't have any milk. / You have no milk left.]- Tu n’as aucun lait. [You don't have any milk./ You have no milk at all.]
Do they mean the same?
In one quiz, a sentence reads J'étais comme votre fils, jusqu'à ce qu'un jour, j'aille dans la bibliothèque de mon quartier,et que je me mette à dévorer les romans “Donjons & Dragons”. I filled the blanks correctly because the tips said to use the subjunctive, but I don't understand why the subjunctive is used here. "I was like your son until one day I went to the library ...", something that definitely happened in the past, so I would have written "je suis allé dans la bibliothèque ... et je me suis mis à dévorer ..." I'm also surprised by the second "que" before "je me mette". Can you give me some insight?
