This scrapes Dreamwidth comments on a specific posts and sends them to a Discord webhook, generating the comment text and a link to the comment in HTML format ```<a href="url">text</a>``` wrapped in backticks. When put on systemd it runs every five hours (don't change that, to be respectful to DW) and if no new comments have been posted since the last one then it returns no comments.
