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.

I think I’m getting too old for an 11pm Fortnite adrenaline rush 🎮

I’ve been playing the beginning levels of Split Fiction with my kid. 🎮 It’s pretty good. There have been some hilarious moments.

We really loved A Way Out and It Takes Two.

A Way Out has a fantastic story tho and is my favourite so far although it looks a little dated now.

Sniped 🎮 youtu.be/NBebj-WT1…

Fortnite OG is quiet and I like that 🎮 youtu.be/5Lf_iFbth…

I started Coffee Talk yesterday. Really cozy 🎮 👍

I am bad at Fortnite https://youtu.be/KoaoyHjVaLw 🎮

I’ve hardly played Fortnite this season and it shows. Today I’ve played about 8 games and I didn’t last more than 4 or 5 miniutes in any of them. Except the last one….. 🎮

First game back in a few weeks 🎮 #Fortnite

I haven’t played Fortnite in about 10 days. No games at all actually. I’ve totally gone off gaming. How strange. Germs took my mojo away. 🎮

Wipeout was the game! I played it relentlessly and it was such a rush! The music was a massive part of that: tracks from this album, and the licensed music too. 🎵🎮

My soundtrack to the original PlayStation. 1995.

Fortnite Skin concept: The Stanley Parable.

Makes the player completely invisible.

But they, and nearby opponents can hear the Narrator sarcastically explaining, or instructing every move.

And can randomly despawn back to lobby at any moment.

Definitely well balanced. 🎮

Fortnite, or Stanley Parable? 🤔🎮

Multiplayer hours seems way off. 🤷‍♀️

Currently WTFing my way through The Stanley Parable 🎮

I have a dodgy tooth and it’s been playing up the last couple of days. It’s probably going to need to be extracted at some point fairly soon.

Last night the pain was pretty horrendous, blooming across my face, and I got very little sleep. Just dozing in and out of wakefulnesss over and over again. So many times.

One thing face pain does for me is it really sends me into a deep meditative presence at times. What else is there to do? Pain is pain. If the painkillers aren’t killing it, then I can only experience it. It’s kinda fascinating watching it shift and change, fade in and out. Not that it helps it go away or anything.

Anyway. This morning my watch announced a cheerful congratulations that I’d hit my sleep goal.

🤷‍♀️

I find the sleep tracking to be pretty bad on this thing. One time it tracked me as asleep when I was actually playing Fortnite. I guess I really am a chill gamer. 🎮

I need to find a dentist.

Victory Royales feel so good 🎮

Me and my eldest revived one of our Christmas traditions last night: Opening our Winterfest presents together in Fortnite.

Fortnite’s been a really important way for me to connect with my kids over the years. Although it’s just a video game, it is a part of our connectedness. 🎮

A selfie of me wearing glasses, a gaming headset and a pink jumper with large dark red juice stains on it. I’m laughing at the camera.

I’m such a doofus sometimes. Today I became a real life casualty of playing Fortnite with my kid. (It’s juice). 🎮
