Tidying up, feeling decent about the look of this now. I also have autoplay going, though I think I am going to alter that so it only goes when they hit the middle of the viewport.
Chambers Sans proved just a little too rectilinear for long passages. So I spent some time figuring out a complementary body font for the blog. I settled on Seravek which has enough angular elements (I really like the lowercase b) to complement Chambers but also has enough curves to be friendlier to long text.

FFL blog design after a mobile-first rebuild. After a lot of fiddling with the link blocks I added a gray border to them – I was really trying to avoid borders and lines, but they make the hierarchy a lot clearer here. I also did a bunch of fiddling with the post-type text, including trying out small caps. Eventually I settled on kind of faking the small caps since the black weight didn't have a small cap variant and the bold one had kind of rough kerning anyway.
Started back at the basics, and going mobile first for real on the FFL blog. Also added a fluid type set-up.
Feeling kind of stuck, so I commented out the stylesheet. This usually happens at least three times a project.
