Moving my personal blog and a new RSS feed URL (goodbye and thanks Micro.blog)
Hey :)
This is just a quick update on this post- RSS feed changes
I’m moving from Micro.blog to a new platform.
- I am going to be moving to a new blogging platform this weekend (for my personal blog). Maybe tonight. It just depends how things go.
- The aeryn.me domain will be moved to the new platform too.
- The new feed URL will be at https://aeryn.me/feed/.
- If you wish to continue to follow this blog in your feed reader, you will need to add it again because I am unable to add feed redirects on the new platform.
- My Micro.blog-hosted site will remain live for some more months whilst I continue migrating posts. But will eventually disappear, I expect.
- I do not intend to delete my account (I want to preserve timeline posts) but will let it lapse back to a free account.
- I will most likely not be posting to Micro.blog anymore. 🤷♀️
- I am now microblogging on Mastodon and still adding Micro.blog folks there gradually. I love that I can continue to follow, although there does feel like some distance now, which is a shame.
- I cross-post from Mastodon to Bluesky too.
Lastly, although I will potentially write about Micro.blog again in the future, I just want to say thank you to Manton, support people, and the community. Thanks for making me feel welcome and being generally a friendly, supportive, and wholesome place.
Bye and see you around
Aeryn x
Edit to add: I think I may have figured out a RSS redirect at the new place. Not sure.
RSS feed changes
Hey,
I am migrating this blog (aeryn.me) to a new platform soon. And all existing RSS feeds will break.
I have set up a feed redirect on the current platform. If you would like to continue to follow my blog, please subscribe this new URL.
The new feed URL will be: https://aeryn.me/feed/
This URL will be the Atom feed address on the new platform, and should be a valid redirect until I complete the move. But I’m not sure all RSS feed clients will happily ‘subscribe’ to a redirect, or not.
So, if you subscribe and you don’t hear anything within a couple of weeks, please check my blog again. I’ll be posting RSS/Atom feed options on the new platform once I’ve moved over.
Happy Christmas to anyone reading this. Or best wishes for the 25th, if you prefer.
I have the Christmas blues already so I’m gonna slow down, chill the f out, and look after myself.
I think the UK should stay on BST (GMT+1) – or compromise at GMT + 30 minutes – all year round. I can never get my head around the clocks changing and the different daylight hours. I can logically work it out and adjust my expectations, but I am discomclockulated for a week or two every time.
I love wrapping presents. I feel a particular kind of glee. The kind that comes when playing a practical joke
HOW CAN I MAKE THIS IMPENETRABLE???!!!
Bwahhhahahaahhahahah

I’m really excited for chapter 2 OG Fortnite. It’s my favourite map. A lot of good memories were made on that island 🎮.
Some days I just want to be rescued. And looked after. I’ve been living quite a solitary life for a long time now and my kids are growing up and it’s weird not having them need me so much. And I find myself needing to be needed. And then I find myself feeling lost and empty. I would like to have a someone in my life. Like a best friend or something. Probably I don’t want a partner at all. But who knows. All I know is today I feel in limbo. It started when things didn’t work out the way I expected this morning, and I came home feeling lost. And it’s just kinda grown through the day into this. This weirdness. Maybe I’m actually lonely?
This has been a brain fart. Goodnight x
The older I get, the more and more I enjoy ambient music. This is so chill and relaxing. Music for creating, reading, or napping. 🎵🎧
A love letter to: Autumn, you are welcome
When you come, places begin to become islands again after the summer, with the rising tide of colder weather.

Noooo! Sea of Stars left PS Plus. I just sat down for some cozy gaming and was denied 🎮. I think I was getting near the end.
Blog post (my first on Pika): Good enough for me — I want to get a bit more focused and less distracted by the shiny toys and freedom to completely mess up a thing I don’t understand ✏️
I dreamed last night that that I had an extra finger beginning to grow between the existing ones. I was asking friends if it was new because I wasn’t sure if it had always been there or not.
In the same dream I had a patch of blue skin on my back.
