That's a fun nickname for sure, must bring you good memories.
My mane sona has two 'names' the first one is Aaron which I came up with very recently, inspiration from Aaron Sanchez, a celebrity chef of Mexican origin, the 'O' has that acute accent which I don't know how to type with the English keyboard.
The other common nickname I use a lot another friend who started the topic 'The Snack Den' came up with the combination of 'fire' and 'fox' the name Firox just stood with me, they came up with it almost when I joined in 2015.
I'll reply to any of those nicknames. My other sona is Jyo the feline Pokemon known as Espeon.
I do have a few others all in my signature, but I keep them only in the topic 'The Snack Den', everywhere else on TFF just Firox to keep it easy.
No vision or commonly called blindness might have been shocking and frightening at first, getting used to it, and learning so much about it. I'm also going to a place where I live in Seattle called DSB, or Department of Services for the Blind, where I'm learning just about everything, including my favorite part technology of how to use cell phones and laptop without the aide of vision. It's how I'm able to reply, once in a while you might notice a silly but simple mistake as in spelling a word wrong.
Hardest part was on Discord to be honest, nothing with me but with other friends who before would share drawings they found or made and wanted my opinion, then I had to let them know I wouldn't be able to see them.
At the moment I only have about one percent of vision left, maybe less, slight blurry dot on the right side of my left eye, so not much. Everything else kind of like a bright light that overtakes the entire vision, kind of 'flash' that never goes away, but not outside the eye, but behind it so even if I blink or close eyes, that 'flash' never goes away. It kind of does for me when I'm in deep sleep and dreaming, but as soon as I wake up, it returns again.
Doctor says it's permanent retinal damage due to complications of diabetes.
Sorry on that long history part of me.
Happy funny moment.
I been a furry for years, likely since very little age, didn't know the word 'Furry' existed at all, learned about it almost when I joined in 2015. I always loved cartoon animals since I was little, and furry I just called them simply 'cartoons. until I learned the term 'furry'
Cats are so fun and interesting, and mysterious.
Aside from cats, also had dogs mainly Chihuahuas, parrots, rats, guinea pigs, and even ferrets in the past. My uncle had 3 scorpions at one time.
even if I don't play much instruments, I still kind of do that 'air guitar or air drumming when I listen to songs I love, and sometimes air-instruments used in songs.
Even if Metal s my main genre, I do listen to a bit of everything. If a song sounds good, no matter the genre, I'll listen to it. Metal band 'Slayer' and 'Megadeth' are the two which I always have in my number one favorite spot, likely will always remain my top favorite. The least known band that I enjoy lots of songs from is Carnival Art, they only released three albums in the early 90s, never got popular aside from their only hit 'Mr. Blue Veins'.
My avatar was actually kind of inspired by my other friend here on TFF known simply as ? on the snack den, where they gave me some funny ideas for a Holiday related art, and I loved how it turned out, and my Eevee ? friend suggested the colors for the present, box, and background. Too bad I never got the chance to learn shading before my vision went bad.
