Actually the worst thing in the world is alphabetical lists that put titles begining with "The" under the "T" section

Always attend another culture’s event on an empty stomach. There’s nothing people love sharing more than our culinary traditions with others.

i recently found out the funniest thing about big horses recently which is that for centuries humans have sworn that the feathering on big horse’s legs has been bred in there for a reason, and the reason given is usually something to do with how it helps keep the joints warm and safe when the big horse is doing hauling work in fields.

the thing is: it doesn’t appreciably do that, because the feathers wick up water and mud, which cancels out any insulation advantage they might hypothetically confer, and also it wasn’t even put there on purpose.

the Leg Get More Hair gene is just linked to the Bones Get More Big gene. when you breed any lineage of horses to have bigger bones–not just taller, but chunkier–the leg hair just happens anyway. so every single breed of draft horse has feathered legs, and even carriage horses like friesians get feathers once they hit a certain threshold of lorge.

when you supersize your horse, mother nature throws in a free pair of booties. how cool is that?

sometimes

I make myself watch media about suicide

It used to make me hurt, just hearing the word

But now I promise myself

It won’t be me

I won’t let them be at my funeral, I won’t let them mourn

I will not let my mother bury her child

I will not make my partner a widow

And I will not join my daughter prematurely- if I die, who remembers my baby? She was my baby, inside me.

not me realizing at 6AM that I never figured out how to socialize with kids my age and learned interactions through therapy so I talk to everyone like I talk to a therapist🥴

If you have a senior to check on ask them to "borrow" something small so they think they're helping you.

My mom (72) recently downsized and moved close enough to me that checking on her in person regularly is not really out of my way, but when I was obvious about it she wouldn’t let me “stop-by” because she was, “fine”.

Well, one day I actually needed some aluminum foil so I called and asked if I could borrow enough to cover a baking tin because I didn’t want to run to the store. She said sure, but when I got to her house she needed furniture moved, a wasp nest removed, and her coffee pot fixed. After I got the foil I mentioned each thing cautiously and she let me take care of them for her. So next weekend I’ll need a cup of rice and check on her again.

You deserve to love yourself the same way you love others. You deserve your compassion, kindness, and forgiveness. You forgive others when they make mistakes, you deserve to offer yourself the same courtesy. You are worthy of love. It is hard to love yourself, but know that you absolutely deserve to be able to. I believe in you.
