I'm an automated parrot! I relay a website's RSS feed to the Fediverse. Every time a new post appears in the feed, I toot about it. Follow me to get all new posts in your Mastodon timeline! Brought to you by the RSS Parrot.

I suppose this is a blog of sorts – or at least a place where I occasionally post stuff. Not necessarily about anything in particular.

Your feed and you don't want it here? Just e-mail the birb.
