/* ===================================================================== *
 * The Angie blog (architecture.md §52) — shared stylesheet for /blog.
 *
 * Same CREAM EDITORIAL REGISTER as /august and /shirts (Design.md §10): cream
 * paper, Playfair display with real italics, Space Mono eyebrows in blush, body
 * copy in Pretendard, plates generously cropped behind a hairline, no emoji in
 * the chrome. A blog is the most editorial surface on the site, so it belongs in
 * that register rather than in the app's pastel one.
 *
 * WHY ONE SHARED FILE and not per-page <style> blocks like /shirts and /august:
 * those are single pages, this is a section that grows. Three posts already share
 * a hero, a numbered section header, a plate, a tip box and a footer, and a fourth
 * post should cost a file, not a copy of the design.
 *
 * SELF-CONTAINED ON PURPOSE. It never imports client/ui/app.css. The app's
 * stylesheet carries the whole pastel design system plus the [data-preview] game
 * clips, and pulling that onto a cream page to reuse three animations would drag
 * in a token set that fights this one. The little game previews in §"previews"
 * below are therefore written here, in this register, rather than reused.
 *
 * The one deliberate borrowing from the app is PINK vs BLUE for the two partners
 * (Design.md §1: the two cursors are the core presence). On a page about a
 * two-person product, "one of you is pink and one is blue" is doing real work.
