Me: horses are not dogs; they are prey animals—they have completely different hardwiring, they communicate entirely different, have different relationship dynamics, different emotional expressions so stop saying they’re just big dogs

Also me: tries to get my horse to play with a ball

We’re dealing with a winter storm—so we just played around in the little indoor today; Annie isn’t sure what to make of the big ball, but definitely curious 😆

“At the end of the day, she didn’t sound any better than some of these ultra-conservative people who were demeaning Black and Brown folk on a regular basis,” said Rev. Rodney Sadler, a Bible scholar and longtime community activist in Charlotte. “It felt like a betrayal of the utmost.”

Cunningham’s comments proved so problematic for Sadler that he said he realized that she was “no longer worthy of being our representative” and he had to run against her. “It drove me to a point of saying, ‘She needs to go, and she needs to go now,’” the 58-year-old pastor, who works at Charlotte’s Union Presbyterian Seminary, told Bolts.

this guy challenged a sitting Democratic lawmaker in yesterday's primary, angered by her pro-ICE vote, and he ousted her 70% to 22%.

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

No, the world is going to end—I’m not okay, but! I am choosing to chase every dream I can, help where I can, and make life worth living in the meantime. If we only have 10 years, let’s make the best of it.

Me, casually mentioning on Instagram I don’t expect there to be a habitable/safe world after the next 10 years {going by Bulletin of the Atomic Sciences, and just, everything} so that’s why I said fuck it, I’m buying a horse

"How can you oppose war when Khamenei was evil?"

Simple. If you killed Donald Trump by nuking Washington DC, I would not mourn Trump but I'd still say you're an evil war criminal who belongs in the Hague. It's really not hard.

The good news is I’m mentally in a MUCH better place. I think I have the new meds and my horse to thank for that.

Sorry I was super depressing. My brain was not having a good time.

Sorry I haven’t been very fandom active….im planning on creating and sharing again soon.

I just don’t know exactly what direction I want to go…I’ve been playing a ton of cozy style games, and I’d love to share my creations. Maybe island tours, park tours, etc.

so you do choose your character out of the two, and you name them, and it also looks like you get to choose somewhat of character choices? Maybe more so just, attitude, than plot changing--but, that's a nice touch.

I named her Tsukira; so looks like you could choose to play as either as the protagonist--seems like how they did in AC Odyssey; now I'm scared they're siblings. DONT RUIN MY SHIP

okay so I started a new game!!!

Guardians of Azuma ✨

It's a GORGEOUS game, and I'm really intrigued that it's basically both an RPG with voice acting, characters/relationships to build--and a farming/town building sim? like, say no more.

Had a great time with Annie yesterday 🥰

We entered in a little local schooling “arena eventing” show; basically just to get out for the first time after winter break. It was a mix of Showjumping/cross country jumps, but in an arena.

And we won our division! 😁

Solas and Eirien walking along a pathway  lined with pillars somewhere in the fade prison. Everything around them is bathed in moonlight, and from them comes a soft warm glow.

Omg. It IS a 14 year old’s idea of how hot and sexy a possessive relationship would be—and a clueless 14 year old who didn’t realize Heathcliff wasn’t white 💀

lol—Tbh like I could see this doing well if it just owned it being its own story. Plenty of stories are influenced by others—or were like fanfics of others—but can still be their own title; it just feels so hollow and disrespectful when comparing it directly to the book.

Like even if I wanted to accept this as a WILDLY loose “adaptation” as they want me to…….like who cares about the story now. Where’s the conflict. Why is this happening. You took out the heart and expect me to care about the frilly shiny “sexy stuff”. I’m too demi and neurodivergent for this
