2018-08-31: New Blog, Now with static engine goodness

Dreamwidth isn't really what I'm looking for in a blog engine. I had switched to it hoping to do "social blogging", but the social part isn't happening so I may as well control my own content again.

I scratched together some python scripts to rig up a blog engine. This one does markdown and lets me embed random files into posts like this:

It's still rough around the edges but I like it. I've copied over posts from my Dreamwidth blog, backdated. The neat thing is my engine is Dreamwidth drop-in compatible (though I lose cuts obviously-- maybe I'll code cut functionality in). I'm also gonna throw this on github once it's a little more reasonable and not full of hardcoded conventions.
