Terry Tao's blog timing out on feed

I’ve been having trouble with http://terrytao.wordpress.com (and a few other sites) since day one of signing up for newsblur. I’ve tried all three buttons for fixing, and I’ve tried adding it as a new feed, nothing works. Option 3 / Fetch Feed From Website is giving me a 200 OK green result:
2013-08-24 16:35:14
OK (200)
2013-08-13 08:10:50
OK (200)
2013-08-12 17:12:50
OK (200)
2013-08-12 17:11:53
OK (200)
2013-08-12 17:11:25
OK (200)

but every time it says “There was a problem fetching the feed from this URL.”. Option 2 / Parse this RSS/XML feed gives a big stack of 505 timeouts:
2013-08-24 16:37:07
Timeout (505)
2013-08-24 16:35:12
Timeout (505)
2013-08-24 16:34:05
Timeout (505)
2013-08-24 15:43:08
Timeout (505)

I’ve tried dl’ing the feed with wget, just to make sure, and it works perfectly fine.
