I don’t feel the need to append `_ref` to all my variable names
in Perl when I create objects, even though they don’t hold the
object, they hold a reference to it.

LEFT JOIN ON entry.author_id = user.id
Is this right? Is this wrong? No idea. I’ll have to look at the
schema to see whether `entry.author_id` does in fact reference
`user.id`. If it were `entry.author_user`, I’d know immediately.
