Knowember 2026
Throwing my hat into Robert Birming's Knowember blog prompt. Let's do this.
A photo
Taken at the park where I read for lunch
I saw this magpie last week, which I then logged into the Merlin Bird ID. As a former kid who loved Pokemon, this has become my real life Pokedex: a Birddex! I'm slowly dipping my toes into bird watching and am loving how I am realizing how often we are always surrounded by these fantastic animals.
Name or nickname
My name is Vincent, but I go by Vince. My current username on things is vinceflux. I wanted a short handle that included my name, but without numbers or underscores, which is a hard find these days as all the good names are taken. I finally thought of "flux", which includes the definition of something that constantly changes. I'm someone who has always adapted well to change, many times craving to shake things up after certain seasons, and have gotten better at accepting change in the last few years. So flux? I like it.
Where in the world I blog from
Taipei, Taiwan. I moved here from California earlier this year. It had always been my favorite country that I visited, and after several years of hard work, I was able to move here. I'm currently enjoying getting to know Taipei, more about Taiwanese life, making new friends, eating new foods, and seeing more of this beautiful country.
What my blog is mostly about
My life and the things that interest me. This is includes snapshots of life in my microblog section, day to day feelings in my journal section, topics of interests in the blog section, logging my travels in the travel section, and sharing small thoughts in the notes section. This space is my "home" on the web.
My interests: Cycling, pro-wrestling, films, birds, retro tech, working out, blogs, zines, geopolitics, traveling, fantasy and science fiction, podcasts, and country music.
