A recent TVT interface change, regarding the font of text component of buttons aligned at the top of the screen horizontally under the TVT logo. The buttons are usable as (questionable) means of navigation. The change is that font has started to appear bold (as opposed to regular or italics). Somewhere it's still fully regular — like home page.

Somewhere it's bold — like in the forums or even this "post a new conversation" page.

Somewhere it's a mixture of the two, namely the YKTTW page. There, "random item", the final button, is in regular. Others are bold. What's more, the "recently new" on that same ykttw list page exceeds the allowed width and becomes a two-lines one.

Scouring all possible pages to verify further was not of any interest.

This contributes to overall very sloppy look. Reported just in case someone responsible didn't know. Tested on Opera(chrome-based), Chrome and IE11.

I think this is on your end. I'm not seeing it anywhere. Check for adware on your machine trying to highlight links.

Edit: Okay, now I'm seeing it too. Weird.

As I mentioned in Ask The Tropers, I've been seeing this for a while now. It affects Firefox too, incidentally.

I do not have this on latest Android communicator's Chrome. On the other hand, screenshots generated by browsershots.org and browserstack.com for https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/yk_activity.php page all exhibit this discrepancy.

^ Indeed, it's a query starting with "The text of the blue-colored tabs are in bold".

I thought it was just a recent site change. Seeing it as well.
