BlurbBot

Blurb Bot is a Discord bot written in Python to keep track of my rants, quotes, and other miscellaneous life stuff!

This is the newer version of Blurbot and includes slash commands from Discord.py 2.0.

I wrote this because I don't want to burden my friends with rambling my mouth off, and it's a cool first Discord bot :)

The bot is currently being hosted on railway.app and I'm using Airtable to store all my data.

At the moment, I am only sending invite links to close friends (on request)! This bot is meant as a personal journaling bot for myself as well as a way to teach my friends how to create their own Discord bots. Feel free to fork and host this bot on your own as an example :)
