 * tl;dr Google doc appears broken when viewed in recent posts.
 * I have been creating documents in google drive. These documents consist of a 
   brief introduction followed by tables, usually 7×5.
 * I then download the file as a .html
 * Open the file in a browser and copy the source code
 * I then paste the source code in the ‘text’ tab in a new post.
 * When I view the post it looks perfect, but then when I go to my homepage which
   is currently set to show recent posts, the post looks completely broken. The 
   CSS isn’t the problem as I can see the colours have come through, but the structure
   of the table is all messed up and words are all over the place.
 * Any idea why it looks ok as a post, but won’t display properly on the recent 
   posts page?

 * Pasting HTML from another source into your Posts rarely works. You have to know
   exactly which bits to paste and which bits to omit.
