I was all set to set up a custom Tumblr scraper so I could reblog art and stuff on here, but it turns out Tumblr already uses the h-entry microformat out of the box! I don't have to do anything special at all! Except maybe to handle reblog chains, but that's something I should really do anyway.

oops I lied
Actually it's just the theme Taylor Titmouse was using that has the right metadata. There's no way to get it for any arbitrary tumblr post. I'll have to write that custom scraper after all 😩
At least this post motivated me to come up with some sort of a story for reposts!
