Ayoo just to preempt the inevitable dumb takes we’re about to start seeing;

I am PRO-WOOL

I am PRO-LEATHER

I am PRO-BEES

Fuck the idea of replacing durable, sustainable animal products with cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn’t bio-degrade. Agave nectar and other artificial sweeteners are expensive, labor-intensive, and destroy the environment to be farmed.

Do not buy into pernicious marketing campaigns pushed by dickhead organizations trying to stay relevant, like PETA.

horse looking out over a metal fence and the gravel parking lot and fenced enclosure beyond it at a beautiful but faint rainbow that cuts through the gray sky and arcs downward until it is cut off by trees that are a shade of bright green only seen shortly after rain except for one small tree with leaves of brownish orange this horse is admiring the beauty of nature for despite the telephone pole that nearly intercepts the rainbow and the truck and trailers that surround it and despite the horses own captivity just as the natural rainbow remains elusive to humanity unable to be captured nature at large shall never be conquered in its entirety and its awesome beauty will continue on long after humanitys dominion has fallen and the fences that contain this noble creature have rusted into nothing

you can never go back. this is your one life. you had a bad childhood and that's it. you lost your teen years to mental illness and that's it. you're miserable in your 20s and that's it. you just go forward

there is someone at my job (horse boarding barn) that INSISTS on pulling their double horse trailer with a cybertruck and every time I watch them pull out of the facility with their two horses am filled with a deep sense of dread and impending doom

personally I would be more confident in my 2010 Powerwheels Barbie Jeep’s (TM) ability to haul a trailer + 2 horses but who am I to talk rationality into the minds and hearts of Tesla Cybertruck owners

I’ve always wanted to make one of these

The oldest known taxidermy horses

This is the second oldest horse mount, mounted in 1633. The horse's name is Streiff and he was the favorite horse of king Gustav II Adolf of sweden. The king died in a battle in november 1632, and Streiff died in december or januari of his injuries.

He may not be perfectly accurate but remember that he was completely hand made, from wood and hay and with painted wooden eyes and without any of the easy premade forms or eyes available today. His head was carved from wood. It's nearly 400 years old and it not only survived all those years, but also a fire (well, minus his ears and the fur on his nose). It is amazing this old mount still stands, and in this condition!

Especially if you know the oldest horse mount (known as Schwedenschimmel, died in 1632) was also owned by king Gustav II Adolf, and looks like this:

Not the best, but still doing pretty well for the oldest mounted horse specimen!

An underrated horse fact is that if you have horse that is both A. Not stupid and B. Likes you, it will actively try to prevent you from falling to your doom when you fuck up as a rider. Like actually make an effort not to drop you like a cell phone. I think horses deserve more credit for that.

This is real btw I love horses

I’m cosplaying as a cishet man today- I’m pretty sure I nailed it + extra footage of me as a kid doing the same exact thing
