       FLUID TYPE SCALE
       ----------------------------------------------------------------
       Every font-size in this file references one of these tokens
       instead of a flat px value. Each is a clamp(min, preferred, max):
         - min/max are in rem, so they still respect a user's browser
           font-size setting (accessibility zoom) — a flat px value
           never grows or shrinks with that setting, rem always does.
         - the middle value mixes a rem base with a small vw amount,
           so size eases smoothly between the min and max as the
           viewport resizes, instead of jumping at breakpoints.
       Rule of thumb used here: small utility/meta text (labels, tags,
       footer) gets a narrow range since it should stay legible and
       stable; headline-ish text gets a wider range since it's meant
       to visually scale with the page. Tune the rem endpoints to
       taste — the vw math just fills the gap between them.

       FLUID SPACING SCALE
       ----------------------------------------------------------------
       Same idea as the type scale above, for margins/gaps/padding that
       were flat px values. Each eases between the min and max as the
       viewport resizes instead of jumping at a breakpoint. Small,
       stable spacing (a few px around a badge, a tight list gap) is
       left as plain px on purpose — it doesn't need to scale and a
       fluid value there just adds noise for no visible benefit.

  RESPONSIVE

  Three tiers, matching the breakpoints used everywhere else on the
  site (900px, 640px):
  
  Desktop  (>900px):  date | image | text, three columns side by side —
                          the layout as designed.
  Tablet   (641–900px): the fixed 140px + 360px-max columns don't leave
                          enough room for the text column once you're
                          under ~900px wide (140+240+two gaps already eats
                          most of a tablet's width), so it drops to a
                          single stacked column: date, then image, then
                          heading + body. The image keeps a wider aspect
                          ratio here since it now spans the full row width
                          instead of a fixed 360px.
  Mobile   (≤640px):  same stacked layout, just tighter side padding
                          and a shorter image so it doesn't dominate a
                          small screen.
