/* Second Syllabus — site.css
   A career-change & online-learning blog. Originally a Substack newsletter,
   migrated to a self-hosted WordPress install in 2025 — a few Substack-era
   widgets (the inline "subscribe" nudge, captioned-image wrapper) were kept
   as-is rather than rebuilt. Warm paper, deep teal, serif body. */
