Wdym you hate Stratt? Without her you don’t get a story

Hey. Minors following me. Internet safety is key!! NEVER include these in your bio/byf:

Medical diagnoses - this is nobody's business but yours. You don't owe anyone an explanation for why you are the way that you are

Trauma - same reason as above

Triggers - people can use these against you! Don't give people tools to hurt you. No one has to know what tags you block. Just block tags to stay safe!

Age - age is okay for adults to include but is iffy when you're a teen. Predators want this information, don't give people more than they need. Just state that you're a minor, that's all that anyone needs to know.

In general: stay safe. If you're not comfortable with every stranger out there having access to this information, you shouldn't post it on the internet.

Play devil's advocate and ask yourself about what would happen if someone searched for your information with intent to hurt you. You do NOT owe anyone an explanation!

adding on to this post, i agree w all of OPs points, but i also highly advise against super young teens posting their face on the internet, its so easy to take peoples selfies + name and find stuff out like your school and then figure out the rough area in which you live. same with your phone number. be super careful about what you put out there. once you post it, it really is here forever.

[mylordshesacactus]

OP already said this so I’m just reiterating to emphasize:

The golden rule of information sharing on the internet is: What would happen if someone saw this who wanted to hurt me?

If the answer is that it would make it easier to harass you, identify you, contact you, or god forbid find you, don’t put it online. You can’t fully control who does and does not see that information--not even with privacy settings.

[elfwreck]

All of that, yes.

And also: Why tell people you are a minor? It will not keep you safer. It makes you a target for predators - you've now told them that you do NOT have experience identifying them, and you probably don't have friends who know how to spot the red flags in a "friendly" DM.

Years ago, chatrooms were full of creeps whose first question in private chat was always "A/S/L" - age/sex/location.

Now you guys post that stuff in your twitter profiles so they don't have to ask before deciding if you're a good target.

Hot Take for English Riders

direct rein and contact is overrated as hell. Do you know how gd pleasant it is to ride a horse trained to ride off the seat and indirect rein pressure? Why are we training dressage horses and show jumpers to lay into the bit and depend on us to hold their heads up? It's tiring and not good for them since tension in the bridle leads to stunted action in the hind limbs. If you actually trained them off clasical principles in the flat work and with the right jump exercises they will develop enough to learn how and when to supoort themselves.

Having a gd tug o war battle with your horse is bad horsemanship and will inevitably make them stronger in the bridle. Normalize treating the reins like side reins, picking one length that the horse can easily recieve slack in when the balance is good and only picking them up as a final touch to back your other aids up. The order of aids should be seat -> weight -> suporting leg -> driving leg -> supporting rein -> direct rein.

If you as the rider are working extra hard physically and mentally to get the horse obedient to your aids how do you think the horse feels?

Here's Venus demonstrating a moderately collected canter during a jumping exercise (withers are positioned above the apex of the hip with her haunches taking more than half the load of her weight through the movement)

Her poll is at the highest point but notice how the reins are slightly looped and her nose isnt pointed down. A horse being "on the bit" and collected or even correctly engaged is not the same thing. Because I'm not restricting her head and neck, her top line is freed up and she can step freely under herself and lift her back creating that straight line of the croup behind the saddle

Akhal teke stud submitter here -- looking through the "Akhal-Teke Lines" page on the newer version of the ATAA website, I noticed that a lot of the horses on the page have neck problems (ewe necked, undermuscled, etc). Would that be a sign of genetic issues regarding neck muscling, or just that the owners of a lot of those horses weren't doing whatever exercises/conditioning that help develop the neck? Thank you!

hey! So Teke's are generally super strange looking alien horses and it's not uncommon for them to have peculiar neck conformation.

Akhal Teke's are an extremely agile breed, and built very lean, for example you can compare them to a whippet, or greyhound.

Aliens: Wow you guys sure are completely normal and not at all indescribably horny.

NASA *beating the alien fuckers with a broom*: Yep. Just a completely normal species. no inappropriate lusting for extraterrestrial booty here, no sir. 

I couldn’t let this be hidden in the replies

As an asexual, I vibe with NASA on this one. It’s… a metaphor.
