HORSE!

[anchovy]

I really like it when horses look like this

[thensaneone]

I keep having to remind myself horses are real animals and sometimes they’re normal and then sometimes horses just do this

Sultan the Pit Pony is a 200-meter-long, raised-earth sculpture made of 60,000 tonnes of coal shale in Caerphilly, South Wales. Designed by Welsh artist Mick Petts, the colossal work of art is known as the largest figurative earth sculpture in the United Kingdom.

Amazing.

[becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys]

More accurately, the real life Sultan the pit pony was the last pit pony to be brought up out of the Penallta Colliery when it closed. The earthwork uses spoil specifically from Penallta, and it was designed and named in Sultan’s honour as a tribute to all the equine workers of the South Wales coal belt

The real Sultan was a bit of a local celebrity, by all accounts, and in his retirement was taken around local horse shows as part of parades or opening ceremonies or what have you. So, when the art was designed, the locals and the artist both named it after him.

It’s very cool being there; it’s actually so big you can’t tell what it is from the ground. There are picnic benches in his nostril

[fledgesfancies]

In a mixed mind about this! So it is an amazing piece of art, and it’s good that people are honouring the pit ponies and an important piece of local history, and I know they were well looked after (all things considered) and that they saved human children from doing the job instead, and were integral to the economy… But I can’t help thinking of the lives of those poor ponies, kept underground most of the time. Even the miners got to go outside back to their families every night, but the ponies were stabled down there, they only got occasional holidays where they could see the sun, eat fresh grass and feel the wind in their manes ;_; Heart breaking, really. Just thought I’d mention it!

[becausegoodheroesdeservekidneys]

Well, yes, hence the sculpture. It was built to honour the ponies BECAUSE they lived horrible lives, especially before the laws that were brought in to protect them. That’s the point of it

By the end of the collieries, the ponies came up to surface once a week. It’s worth noting, though, that for most of mining history, they were better treated than the human workers on multiple metrics; better fed, but also not sent into dangerous shafts in case of collapse. Mine owners were very open about it - ponies were expensive, but people were replaceable

The ponies aren’t what stopped children going down, though, that was the advent of child labour laws. Kids very much worked in the mines alongside the ponies, as either runners, door keepers, or explorers of smaller seams. The ponies’ job was to haul the heavy carts, which kids couldn’t do

HEY. HOW DID YOU GET SO BIG.

WHAT KIND OF DOG ARE YOU.

I HAVE QUESTIONS FOR YOU.

[krisiverse]

[video description: a Dalmatian following a horse that is white with black spots. end description.]

[weaselle]

this is, btw, probably extremely fulfilling for this dog.

Dalmatians were supposed to be hunting dogs at the founding of the breed, but what they mostly became bred and used for was carriage dogs.

A carriage dog is a dog whose job it is to run alongside a horse and carriage and prevent anyone from interfering with it. They were excellent carriage security. Nobody could reach up and grab the horses reins, nobody could try to open the carriage door - you could even park with peace of mind

This is also how they became known as firehouse dogs, because fire trucks used to look like this

and i imagine having a carriage dog was very useful to prevent even well-meaning members of the public from doing anything stupid to the equipment or horses while you fought a fire.

So the dog in the video is probably feeling very Job Well Done about his activity

[horsefigureoftheday]

I think horses should have fingers. I think it would make everything more exciting.

[varjopeura]

Ooh, I can jump into this bandwagon! I have some horsey fingers to share!

[real-horse-facts]

horses made me transgender

[real-horse-facts]

Story time to explain this

-there’s a horse where I work named Lucy who HATES men

-like “bite your face off” levels of hate

-enter me, who’s been having gender thoughts but not really realizing what that means

-I’d been avoiding Lucy because I quite like having my face not bitten off thank you

-Then one day I forget that she hates men and I go into her stall with her to clean out the poo

-She Doesent Hate me but I don’t think anything about it because I don’t remember that she’s sexist

-Someone walks by and comments on how she never lets any men in there

-“ha ha weird”

-internally I’m screaming “holy shit holy shit holy shit”

-thoughts that I’ve been having suddenly start to make sense

and that’s how I realized I was a girl

[dykejedi-deactivated20170430]

when i was little and i went to church people would talk about “fearing god.” they would use ‘’fear’ to describe like a way of respecting him while understanding his power and i never knew what that  meant until i met a fucking horse 

[tjmystic]

This… went in a completely different direction than I thought.

[orangebitters]

Horses will do that too - go in a completely different direction than what you thought. It’s one of the reasons they’re feared.
