lumberjack wharfie is on neocities

The blog posts from December 14 and 15, 2024, contained "embed" tags that are now broken.
I've solved the workflow issues I was discussing here, but I want to leave these old blog posts to show how I was thinking about the problem as I figured it out.

a note on embedded text

14 December 2024

In thinking about ways to structure my neocities site, I've been thinking about how I want to handle blog posts. For now, I'm just doing this reverse chronological stack of "cards" on the homepage (which is for now the only page, lol), but that means I have to write the posts directly in the HTML. That's kinda fine for the very barebones situation of neocities, but it had me thinking about ways to store the posts on external files and embed them. This brought me to the <embed> tag, so I figured I'd test it out, which gives us:

but as you can see, that shit is not formatted the same way as the rest of this text. And I haven't figured out how to fix that. (Gave a quick try in the style.css, but it didn't work.)
I'll explore that idea more later. For now, it's at least useful as-is for code blocks. Like here's the snippet for the above embedded text:

I'm thinking embedding HTML could work better. I'll try that when I come back to this.

ayy i'll see y'all later ~wharf
