- Quarterly: Show posts 3 months apart (from April, July, October, and January 4th in past years).

- Weekly: Show posts from Friday in past weeks.

Periodic reminders
These start somewhat frequent (3 times in the first week) but quickly become rare (once per quarter year). The idea is to maximize your chances of successfully maintaining a journal while still backing off on the generated email traffic if you don't come back.
The time of day that this email is sent is not currently configurable.
Loss of streak
This email is similar to the previous one, but it is only for the day on which you'd lose your streak if you were to not post.
Choose a time of day that by which you expect you will have journaled, and if you have a streak going and haven't yet made an entry, this email will go out.
If you don't make an entry that day and lose your streak, this email won't trigger again until you have posted.
