he/they • reblogs and the occasional thought • I mainly post on my mastodon these days

[derfisch]

hi! I'm Fisch (derFisch is the brand, Fisch is the guy), a gay furry web vagrant. I'm usually either a funny colored goodra, a funny-colored flygon, or a funny colored tanuki. you should use he/him or they/them for me

I'm an artist, but tumblr made me scared to post art here, so I don't anymore. you can find all art I previously posted here on @derfisch-draws, and follow my newest art from any of the appropriate websites listed on my website. I still use tumblr socially, but I'm pretty active on my mastodon account as well.

most of my posts are random silly reblogs with no real common theme. I have several interests outside of the furry community, but they don't have a very strong presence here, so you won't hear about them much. if you're curious though, I'm a big fan of rhythm games, a mahjong player, a shogi novice, and am not too bad at pokken tournament, if you'd like some games with me. outside of gaming, I'm into linguistics and urbanism. I'm also straightedge and an atheist, in case those sorts of things bother you, but I usually shut up about it unless I'm really annoyed about something or there's a funny joke to be made

do interact!

Sure, you know how to self-flagellate, but do you know how to apologize? Saying "I'm a stupid idiot" is not the same thing as saying "I did something wrong."

[draconym]

People who want an apology pretty much never want to hear "I'm a stupid idiot." If someone is actually trying to get you to say you're a stupid idiot, it's not because it will make up for a mistake you made or harm you caused. It's because they want you to feel like a stupid idiot. People who care about you do not want you to feel like a stupid idiot and it hurts them when they see you putting yourself down in their name.

Plus, this can feel really manipulative. An apology is acknowledgement that a mistake was made and reassurance that it won't happen again (or at least, reassurance that the person apologizing will make an effort). Reframing the situation so that's it's all about how bad you feel or how badly you screwed up means that the person expecting an apology is getting a negative reaction to a reasonable request and is now expected to reassure whoever did harm. It's making it all about you, not about righting what you did, and it's a great way to alienate people.

huge fan of the depth of a good purple but another area that draws me is definitely around aquamarine/turquoise/seafoam. you can not go wrong once the green starts getting just a tinge more blue. a gal could certainly do worse than to pull over there and stay a while

[charl0ttan]

something earth shattering going on here
