Hope everyone knows that the original cowboys were Mexican, Native American and African American men, they were called Vaqueros and they created everything Hollywood stole for their white cowboy films (though I'm sure no one really thought white men invented all that macho swagger).

In fact, it was one of the few ways these men were able to make money as free men. They worked for the highest bidder, like contractors, moving cattle through the harsh desert environment on just their horses so they had to be very sturdy and very skilled.

Even rodeos (a Spanish word) were something the Vaqueros invented, originally just as a way of having fun when they finished a job. They'd gather in a field to show off their skills to each other, held contests, made games, obstacle courses and timed races. Eventually, people would come to watch the impressive skill of these men; it grew wildly popular and quickly turned into an entire show.

Probably the best known thing about the modern cowboy is the clothing, which was also created by these Vaqueros. The tall tough boots (needed to walk on rocky terrain and keep out dirt, bugs and snakes) made of various desert creature skins, the thick shawl to protect from sun and dust but also from cold desert nights, the wide brim hat to shade their faces and necks, scarves to wipe sweat, pants with leather around the legs to protect from long rides on horses, they were even known to make their own rope!

So, just wanted to share some of this interesting history with the release of the ranch horse pack and in case anyone out there didn't already know, now you know!

Reblog with the one t.v. show (or other media) you think your followers should catch up with during the strike!

(Watch Psych -- now it has 8 seasons, 119 episodes, 1 musical, and 3 movies!)

"Quivering" is my least-favourite word in the english language. Nothing and nobody should be quivering. If you're quivering right now, stop that shit immediately. Tremble or shake if you must but the quivering has to stop.

Meanwhile, Brazil has a pretty robust consumer's defense public system called PROCON, which has already notified Netflix twice of potentially unlawful charges of login in multiple addresses, on grounds that (1) nowhere in the constitution says you can't have multiple addresses on your name, (2) nowhere in the constitution says you have to have a home (fixed address) in the first place and (3) the streaming service states that you can "watch wherever you want" (referring to the app on your cellphone), which leads the consumer to believe you can log on your profile wherever you want, thus being false advertising. PROCON is coming for Netflix's ass and I'm ALL for it

You are a writer because you write. That's truly all it takes. You don't have to prove your worth to anyone. Your love for storytelling and desire to create is enough.

Adfly bought by Linkvertise

Sooooo Adfly links now take you to Linkvertise, a website even sketchier than Adfly was. People have lost computers to viruses originated from that website. Not only that, but I read that they have been cracking down on bypass websites as well.

If you are a CC creator that continues to use Linkvertise, you are a scumbag and knowingly exposing people to viruses. Just sayin'.

If you are a Sims player do NOT download from Linkertise. Save yourself.

[plumbponette]

good to know.

CALL OUT CREATORS WHO USE THESE!

adfly = death

[helloavocadooo]

They’re all considered new links with the buyout so Universal Bypass has to start all over.

[yooniesim]

‼️Do not rely on your old bypass methods! Do not click any links with Adfly thinking it will automatically skip, they won't anymore! Avoid creators that use ad shorteners and warn others about them as much as you can! ‼️

dear ea stop making all ur worlds so american like even the ones that are meant to be inspired by other parts of the world are so so american. bring us attached houses. cramped neighbourhoods. or just houses that dont have an entire football fields worth of space around it. awkward flats above shops and houses that are seperated by alleyways. no matter what my sims feel so fortunate to have such a huge plot of land even if their house is small like its so isolating
