It is not an experiment in how bad front end design can be pushed to be... Although that would be a fun blog post
The things that look like buttons (and are spans in the html code, not even anchors!) trigger non-local transitions (the left panel thing) when hovered... and they close the opened panel when clicked, so if I move my mouse to click on it the end result is a panel that flashes.
I need to keep ignoring the usual button affordance of being clicked and force myself to think they are tiggered on hover.
If this isn't bad UX I don't kown what it is.
In general we consume blogs more like traditional web pages, so it feels ... "wrong," but in some ways it keeps all of the content at hand and lets you navigate linearly or back and forth pretty reasonably, the way you might traverse a PPT.
