one of my favorite things in programming is that i'm not necessarily an outsider but i am definitely not invested in the minutiae of a lot of languages, like. if it gets the job done, the job gets done. but i'm looking at my options for rewriting the bdth site and i'm looking at the doctrine for rails and it's kind of like staring into the abyss. like. "this exists to make Me happy" cool manifesto dude, this tells me nothing. how much hair pulling out will i be doing when i try and build a comics website on it.
