Only the subtlest metaphors on this Tumblr.

[pastel-hutt-deactivated20180115]

This works as a metaphor for children but also it works perfectly well when played totally straight because horse people are actually like this

[rider-waite-blog]

it literally took me three solid readings through this to realize that it wasn’t necessarily about horse people, because they are exactly like this

I must be the anti horse person (and lets face it anti child person) cause I have three horses and every time someone mentions maybe getting one Im immediately all: No. Dont do it. Save yourself. Its too late for me, but you can still live….

Do you agree with the statement "People who own horses only to ride shouldn't own horses"

Yes

No

Nuance

I mostly hear statements like this when the topic of privileged equestrians comes up. The kind of people who board at a stable where turnout, feeding, mucking, etc is all taken care of, all of the owner does is come to the stable, tack up, ride, and then return the horse to the stall.

Or the kind that neglects things like proper feeding, turnout, etc because they only own a horse because they want to ride them.

Another example is people who sell competition horses the second they retire or become injured and can no longer compete at the level they used to.

I know Eohippus means Dawn Horse in Greek, but coincidentally, Eoh also means Horse in Old English (originally, before it was replaced by Hors) so Eohippus could also means Horse Horse.

is it worth it?

yes!!

the side effect is bad but ITS WORTH IT

meh it's okay

the side effect makes it unusable/not worth it

Results/option I didn't think of

Horse girls are the backbone of this world

I'm so so so angry. in Horsey Game, I found a wild legless horse, cloned it repeatedly, and mass-sold the clones to all my rival ranches to pollute their gene pools. and when my plan finally reached fruition.....when at last, I came into a race where every opponent had no legs.......my stupid fucking horse fell over.
