This is the most Leo response <3

Eh I dunno, my ex husband was a really shitty human narcissist who was also a Pisces, I’m a generally identified as textbook Sagittarius (listen ya’ll I was raised in this ish, I got so many birth charts as a kid for birthday..), and the dumb whore 12 years younger than me who gleefully fucked a married dude she knew…

You GOTTA have a helmet!! And safety stirrups look dorky but they are USEFUL! Plus now like all the helmet covers and gear are super cute so there’s no excuse not to wear them.

When I rode in Panama the horse we could afford was a retired Panamanian race track boi (probably a thoroughbred?) because Panama has 3 kinds…

It helps that they’re so thirsty for placing/ribbons/riding the circuit to state that they are willing to endure being ordered around by a poor to live their blue ribbon dreams. I wish there were more kids to teach - they’re way more fun and willing to learn and it’s kinda weird to yell “STOP WITH THE PUPPY PAWS,…

In that vein is a CNN story on a woman detailing why she left white supremacist organizations when she finally realized OH YEAH they really do think of women as second class chattel. Oof.

It’s quite progressive now, but back in the day it was not the place to be if you were Jewish (nor Hyde Park), and now Avondale and Rose Hill (which desperately want to be known as distinct from Norwood) is struggling for its own reasons (there’s a beautiful...I suppose we’d call it condos now but essentially a huge…

I’d gone to temple in Cincinnati and apparently Blue Ash is now the place to be if you’re Jewish (the most conservative population at least) - So I was asked at temple where in Blue Ash I lived as just a general assumption.

No no no, she did not have a Quinenera or a cotillion style coming out (like the kind I see some of the like middle class folks have around these areas) - she was literally a full on debutante at a mostly white EXTREMELY monied event, designer gown, whole nine yards, but no creepy ceremonial stuff that she was willing…

My Cuban roommate said she had a debutante thingie too!! I, a poor, am fascinated by this concept like you have to do all this training and shit and it’s for like really rich people but damn yeah, being that young and being like “OK! Here are our daughters we previously kept locked away from the world, this is the new…

Now you got me diggin’ on what would have been up in Cincy, I did my Masters there and living in different parts of the city you learn 1 important thing - there was one ultra fancy neighborhood for all the like, brewery and import and other various super rich white people in the Clifton area by UC...where but a few…

So this kind of white culty nonsense is what she had to draw on for Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt. Makes sense!

Its almost like we’ve forgotten the consequences of the Black Plague...like say...the Peasant’s Revolt...

When in doubt...leak it out!  We’ll pay you later in Mary, TRUST THAT FOR SURE.

Also heels down Kim and it looks like the young ‘un hasn’t even gotten her feet in the stirrups

Don’t forget the cost of the grooms you KNOW they got in that stable because a daughter of a Kardashian will SURELY never muck a stall! And possibly an imported trainer if they’re going to have the young’uns do more than Western Pleasure. The ONLY reason I got to ride and own a horse as a kid is coz I got bargain…

I always misspell it as Fresian (I forget the extra i) despite having once memorized like the Giant Book Of All the Horse Breeds

I teach now to mostly older women who are finally having the cash to live their horsey dreams (they drop fat stacks on like the Mercedes of horses sight unseen no test ride), and I’m on average 10-15 years younger than them (I turn up in my like target sweat shirt and my like grubby riding tights and ancient paddock…

Enormous powerful animals, majestic, beautiful, shimmering in the sun...afraid of a plastic bag stuck to a fence post.  Such is the dichotomy of the horse.

Fresians are *very smart* but also real fuckin’ wily when they want to be. A feisty one will try to scrape you off on a fence if they’re feelin’ it. You gotta wear a helmet on those dudes (just as any horse).  They are NOT a beginner model no matter how beautiful or picturesque they are.  Like you don’t give a kid a…

I just made that post, my mom who is an extremely tenacious *sticker* when it comes to a horse getting spooked/bucking whatever but when she took a flight off her insane horse after she lost her damn mind seeing a plastic bag flutter by, my mother ended up with a busted up helmet and *still* had a concussion (it was…
