Yes, I’m using wordpress. Yes it’s kind of crappy. But if you know enough to know why it isn’t ideal then  you also know how much work goes into doing something without it with this level of customizability.

I also make music, which can be found at http://www.omaroutfit.com/

I also co-invented a fake programming language as satire, it’s called Jave
