New #introduction

I'm Vince! I was a Genius at Apple for way too long. I currently do Mac IT in Portland, OR but will be moving to the Twin Cities in a few weeks for another Mac IT gig.

I started writing about Mac IT on @smc & https://sad-macs.club

I like evolutionary biology, dinosaurs and whales, diy tech, games, & trashy girl pop music

I went to school for animation and I'm v proud of my short film, Dear Dad, Love Maria (https://vimeo.com/5935188)

Ran D&D last weekend and I made a silly pro wrestling encounter for my players to fill the level 2-3 gap during Dragon Heist. They played against The Flying Goblino Bros. And a Kobold Inventor who summons a Clay Gladiator to fight for him named Mantaro "The Wizard" DuBois.

This live footage of Minneapolis PD reminds me of living in PDX whenever the cops' fash buddies came to town.

Finally got the oatmilk recipe I've been looking for with my Almond Cow!

One thing that I will say, is that while this thing is convenient, the design needs serious improvement and I'm glad I won it, because it's not worth the $200 it costs currently.

I'm so stoked that I can consistently land 360s on my rollerblades now! 🙌

Apparently 45's personal valet tested positive, dare I hope that they figured this out too late?

I also learned that after years of thinking I naturally spun clockwise for my 180s, I actually spin counter clockwise and can spin 180s at way higher speeds.

Apparently everyone is getting into rollerblading again so obviously I'm going to jump on that and break out my aggressive skates and try to break my body doing stupid shit at 33.

My wife and I were just singing along to Smashmouth and my daughter gave us a look that we will see many more times as we demonstrate how cool we were as middle schoolers in the late 90s.

My college senior thesis film, "Dear Dad, Love Maria" is going to be in a book about Trans Cinema in 2021! I just got an email from the author requesting a film still.

Does it make me a bad person that I hope that Pence going around without a mask at Mayo Clinic gets the whole White House sick?

I mean I'm not the one trying to force people to go back to work and die for the rich.

For those folks out there who enjoy #ttrpg actual play podcasts and want to witness the game Blades in the Dark in action check out The Magpies Podcast. It's queer AF and is entirely made up of ladies! Audio starts out rough, but clean editing sets the pace really well.

Highly recommend!

My grandfather, from whom I get my first name, passed away early this morning. He was an immensely intelligent person who created beautiful stained glass works for us. He dressed as Santa every Christmas long after all of us were adults and even got to have several great grandkids. When I was a teen he loved getting hugs and wanted me to squeeze him until it hurt so he could feel how strong I was getting. I'm glad his pain is done, but I will miss him dearly.
