 * Blog — Field Notes
 *
 * 2026-05-27 rebuild. The previous treatment leaned on a translucent paper
 * card over the photo backdrop; the user feedback was that it "still looks
 * crap". This rewrite is committed to a magazine register — typewriter
 * kickers, italic display titles, dropcaps, ruled section heads, and a
 * numbered-stack gallery for the "more dispatches" list.
 *
 * Variants (Editorial / Manuscript / Folio) layer on top via blog-variants.css.
