  Ah, fair enough. It's definitely harder to construct a coherent thread of conversation with webmentions

  I'm confused by the webmention part of this statement. Do you not have control over how webmentions are displayed under your blog posts?

  I think the phrase is referring to the desire to have something both ways, to have something without paying for it

  I think the expression is meant to be understood as "you want to eat your cake and have it too", i.e. you still want the cake after you've eaten it, i.e. you want things both ways. Or, at least, that's the only way it makes sense to me.

  There is this saying people say when they think you are asking too much: You want your cake and to eat it too? My mind is like, well hell yeah who wants to just look at cake? Of course I want to eat it! How is this a question?
