I present to you all, The Moose - Moose is currently in Bastard Jail cause he's come back completely feral from his time off in the spelling paddocks after retiring from racing.
Why Moose you say? Well, he's an incredibly large unit standing just shy of 18hh, with a huge ass head and tends to lumber around like one, too.
He's got the over-sized carriage horse look going on rn cause the fucker let the yearlings in the paddock next to him chew off his beautifully long and thick tail😭🙄 but he's come back to the yard for re-education and for a hopeful career in the show horse/hunter ring 😌 and if he sucks at that, I might just persuade my coach to let me give him a spin in dressage cause he has some pretty nice gaits and hopefully we can turn him into an eventer if all else fails 😂
Plus, he's the most comfortable thoroughbred you can ride bareback 😍 we've taken him to the beach prior to his spell and it was a genuinely pleasant experience and felt super secure cause of how wide he is 😌 can't say the same for when I rode Nep bareback, that's for sure 😭😂
Does anyone remember the internet when MLP first got popular and people online were insisting They were swearing up and down that the show was for adults, and that it was marketed towards kids but was Definitely For adults, full of mature humor and dark concepts and deep complex characters. and then nowadays you go look up an episode of MLP: FiM and the episode synopsis is something like Pinkie Pie Lost Her Balloon 🎈💔
When BoJack Horseman (2014-2020) said "you can't keep doing shitty things and then feel bad about yourself like that makes it ok. you need to be better" and "all we have are the connections we make" and "I really should've thought about the view from halfway down" and "sometimes you have to take responsibility for your own happiness" and "you do the hokey pokey and you turn yourself around, you turn yourself around, THAT'S what it's all about" and "things have to get worse before they can get better" and "in real life, the big gesture isn't enough, you need to be consistent" and "if we hadn't met each other until now, we wouldn't be the people we are now" and, my personal favourite, "every day it gets a little easier, but you gotta do it every day, that's the hard part, but it does get easier".
Horses.
I really like that other movie that Hobie's voice actor was in.
IDK why I ended up putting so much effort into the rendering this was just supposed to be a shitpost.
Hobie's pose is heavily referenced from a shot from the movie Nope (2022). The background texture is also from the same frame.
Miguel is cast as the stressed-out, half-Latino, tech guy with an angel name who watches camera feeds all day and bitches about his life to people he just met.
One of my favorite things back in my riding days, was watching the way the rope would burn and smoke around the saddle horns when wranglers would lasso racing cattle. You had to be really careful though because it was an easy way to lose a finger. Leo has fewer fingers already so he has to be extra careful hah!
Words can’t describe how proud of this little pony I am 🥺
After the knock in confidence at Seafield he’s done a total 180 and back to being his usual chilled out, completely gung-ho, normal Steady Eddie. He was an absolute legend at the Woodend inhand show yesterday and I couldn’t ask for any more from him, he blew us away in the best way 😭
I was watching a behind the scenes video from the new Percy Jackson series, and they showed how they do Chiron’s legs. I figured it was CGI, but…
He is straight up on a horse 😭😭😭. I know, logically, it’s just a reference for the CGI people, but they chucked this man on a beautiful stallion in weird blue tights and put white spots on the horse to digitally remove it’s head 😭. And he can’t even clutch onto the reins for safety, they all have to act like there isn’t a LITERAL HORSE staring them right in the face. Look, here it is:
They probably asked the owner or the trainer for the horse, and the person was like “What do you need him for?” What did Disney say? “Oh, we’re going to make it look like he’s a human man merged with a horse by digitally making him just a pair of legs.” I’m just stunned 😂.
