There's a few deficiencies — no comments, permalinks and archiving work weird — but there's a few interesting features that might make it worthwhile — different kinds of posts for different content, clean and easy design, the ability to "remix" other people's posts (which I think might step in for a commenting function).

I'll probably give up on it like usual, but for a few days at least, be there or be somewhere else entirely.

Gas was one thing, but this...this is bad.

No! Good lord, no!

A hops shortage may soon raise the price of your favorite microbrew. Better start hoarding like a Fat Squirrel now.
