Hey, little buddy

Sixty-one seconds of April peepers

[sairin-ellerinde]

Her sabah

Yeniden başlamayı bilmek lazım;

Umudumuzu tazeleyerek,

Gülümseyerek,

Ve iyi şeylerin olacağına İnanarak..

Gülen yüzlerle ve taze umutlarla başlayan neşeli bir gün olsun.

Günaydın 😌☕️🌿🌺🍃

I always wanted to leave but now I find myself staying. I'm scared, but am I scared that things might get worse or rather scared that things could get better and I wouldn't know what to do with that?

i just find it so insane how people will LITERALLY plug their fucking ears and ignore straight up abuse for the sake of themselves, because a lot of people don't wanna ever consider that they may be part of a problem. horse sports in general tend to attract a lot of cruelty, especially in advanced and olympic levels. dressage is an example of this, where the FEI has literally slackened its standards to promote shitty horsemanship, because it's easier to perform and it impresses laypeople who don't realize what they're looking at. big lick is another example. they literally pour acid on the horse's feet and make them wear weighted shoes to exaggerate the gait. how this is still legal in the usa fucking vexes me

I believe soring (using acid, at least) is illegal in the US now, but it's still poorly enforced in many places. And there are certain legal weighted devices that they will put on the horses' shoes to exaggerate their steps, and it's still a cruel and unnecessary practice.

I especially loathe dressage and would LOVE to see it die out. But yes, I'm seeing people talk more about Umamusume and post pictures of the actual horses, as if they're part of the game. It floors me.
