New Friends! Ask me anything!

[kitewithfish]

Hi! I love when ppl say hi and this is a free space to stop in and say hello!

Edit - if you're thinking of subscribing and want to message me questions in private, that is also totally cool too! I just like to actually say hi to the people who come and follow my weird little ramblings.

Edit 4/17/25 So I hear that Tumblr is looking once again unstable, so if you want to hang out while it slouches towards Bethlehem, please feel free to hangout with me here!

Edit 7/5/2023 - Uh, so it looks like Reddit and maybe also Twitter are fucked? Sorry about that, folks. If you're coming to DW from either of those places, please feel free to drop in and say hi!

Edit - 11/22/22 - I re-engaged with this journal when Tumblr looked like it was falling apart, and I'm finding new people to engage with as Twitter goes wrong, so if you're new or newly back on DW, hello! I'm friendly and would love to chat.

kitewithfish as in, like, the bird? That's delightful.

Ha, that would have been too clever for me when I thought it up back in high school.

It was based off a little sketch I had made where a kite (like the kind Charlie Brown would fly into an unfriendly tree) and the little ribbons in bows on the tail morphing into angel fish - I thought they looked kind of like a bow in profile.

I do love a bird of prey tho, so if you're enjoying the visual of a smug kite with dinner in its talons, I won't contradict you!

Ah, thanks for sharing the actual backstory! It's interesting that you've kept it since high school; that would be a lot of continuity with my high school self for me.

I like that it can be read multiple ways.

Do you have a favorite bird of prey?
