Did you know that horses are still used for logging? Not just as a way to keep traditional handicrafts alive, but because horses are genuinely better at some jobs than machines?

Horses are much gentler on sensitive ecosystems, they're more flexible in rocky terrain, and they don't topple over on a hillside.

They can enter dense forests and drag out one specific tree without damaging the other trees and without compacting or eroding the soil.

They also run on hay instead of gas or electricity. Horses don't pollute the ecosystem with either oil leaks, gas stench, or noise.

In conclusion, draft horses are awesome c:

I LOVE his buddy who stands behind him to be his extra leg when he does the jive like they have CLEARLY COORDINATED THAT BEFORE

[watermelon-converse]

[acetrainererin]

I missed it at first, but his buddy who does the leg movement doesn't have an arm, so the guy without a leg does the arm movement for him. They ABSOLUTELY have done this before lol

[warmhappycat]

I like that he and the buddy are dressed the same so they can camouflage together.

a concept: heavy rainfall when you’re tucked up in bed. like if u agree.

I hate when a tiny stupid thing pushes you over the edge and makes you freak the fuck out because it makes you look like a completely irrational tar pit of a human being. Like no I promise this is warranted just maybe not about that specifically I swear I'm well adjusted. Come closer stick your fingers in my cage

People have written a lot of touchy-feely pieces on this subject but I thought I’d get right to the heart of the matter

“Holy shit two cakes,” I mutter to myself as I do fucking anything these days, this post was a godsend

men love to make fun of women for overreacting in emergencies when they are, in fact, massively under-reacting

we have this conversation every hurricane season but if your man is refusing to evacuate for a natural disaster or shelter for a tornado because “it’s not that serious”, just leave, stop arguing, let him die. that’s my opinion. don’t die with him. write your number on his arm in permanent so they can call you when/if they find him in the floodwater and go. if he’s right, he’s already shown you his true colors by mocking your concern. if he’s wrong, he’s fucked.

According to the National Weather Service, 65% of direct hurricane victims are men. Not deaths during cleanup efforts, direct hurricane victims. So leave his ass to join that 65% and do not die with him.

Trump voters on tiktok are EXTREMELY mad about the following:

They just found out what tariffs are

They just found out what denaturalization is

They (particularly black and Hispanic trump voters) just found out that other trump voters are racist

Leftists and liberals don't want to be their friends (they are furious about this)

Leftists keep telling them they hope they get what they voted for (they are really mad about this too)

giving birth sucks tbh. not only do you and the baby you’re birthing almost die, usually you shit yourself and often you tear your taint. then you have to push an organ out of your body (placenta) and if even a little of that remains in your body, you can hemorrhage to death or develop an infection that essentially rots your body from the inside out. even if you had a relatively “easy birth”, you bleed for weeks on end. even after that stops, your body and brain is changed for the rest of your life, the pregnancy leeched minerals from your bones, that can cause osteoporosis later. minor urinary incontinence is not uncommon, brain scans of people who gave birth show permanent changes in their brain, you’re never quite the same.

I say all of this not to say giving birth is disgusting but it is a harrowing and visceral experience. society downplays how fucking awful it is and makes it out to be a ~magical~ experience but it isn’t a magical transformative experience for everyone. it can be an extremely traumatic experience for someone who wanted to carry a pregnancy to term, much more so for someone who did not want to be pregnant in the first place or someone who knows their baby won’t survive the birth. anyway, abortion is a right. pregnancy and birth aren’t just inconvenient, it’s fucking awful.

I fear those 43 research center monkeys will never be captured and will cause an invasive primate problem in South Carolina.

[byjove]

There are 40+ monkeys lose in South Carolina rn, as of 53 minutes ago they know where they are but haven’t managed to capture them. We don’t know exactly how many monkeys have escaped or what species they are.

John Salt (British, 1937-2021), Black Ford in Field, 1972. Oil on canvas, 48 x 72 in.

[cursmudgeon]

Looked up the artist and this is just all he did for decades. Unbelievably realistic paintings of broken down cars parked on roadsides. They're made by projecting photos onto the canvas and using an airbrush and stencils to carefully reproduce the image without any brushstrokes. Some of his paintings would take years to complete.

once I did an Americorps position & I won’t get into exact details but two months in my one other coworker & I were rly frustrated bc we weren’t doing anything in our job description or the contract we signed whatsoever & instead we were basically being used as extremely underpaid retail staff and slowly the ppl in charge of us were cornering us more and more into that until I was finally like okay….what the hell? I opened up the work contract I signed and realized I hadn’t done a single thing listed in my role so I sent a long (professionally worded) complaint email to Americorps and they called me an hour later in total outrage because it turned out the work we were being made to do was explicitly prohibited by the program and we were being 100% exploited for cheap labor and the very next day we got a new supervisor and spent the rest of our year doing what we signed up to do and it rocked.
