The horses have been moving up in the world. A glorious day for all the crazy horse girls on Tumblr.

miss reva sevander's 2 PAGE SPREAD from dawn of the rebellion still has me in tatters for factoids including but not limited to

she bled a jedi's crystal herself (i am once again asking for an inquisitor reverse gathering. a reaping if u will.) (harvester is already taken, sowwy.)

the grand inquisitor helped her perfect her jar'kai (amy adams screaming into a dress dot gif)

she hunted on alsakan (HELLO??? this one is just for me. see: my fic.)

she was only 22 (& should have been @ the club ect ect)

forges knives (this one is weird bc it references the cantina patron's knife that she threw at the barkeep in ep 1. but hey. new reva lore. i'll take it.)

I’ve been in a major depression since late 2021 and honestly the funniest thing ever is that out of ANYTHING fixating on FLUTTERCORD. FLUTTERCORD helped me get over what made me depressed in the first place. FLUTTERCORD. I’m not complaining but like if you told that to me 2 years ago I actually would’ve shut down forever

A dreamer of pictures I run in the night

hii pidge, i saw u mentioned race + horse imagery in your last post and i def agree bc horses are v loyal n ofc there is the thing of (metaphorically and also literally) carrying people's loads, and bolting when faced w danger so I would love to know if u have any more thoughts about it? :))

tbh i don't have many artsy references for why race is horse-coded, it just makes the most sense to me. mostly because i think the modern view of horses is kind of a joke? like we've all seen the memes about how fucked up horses bodies are, we've all seen the ones about how 'oh if horses run too fast their lungs bleed' or 'if they eat too much their hooves fall off' and 'humans thought they had it bad but then they looked at horses and said 'that guy's got it worse'.' i think that applies to race all too well, really, ESPECIALLY now that we've seen what some people reduce his character to be. the funny guy. the bitchy twink who's only there to be a punchline. but he's more than that - or maybe he could've been if he was born a little earlier, back when horses had meaning and sprang fully formed out of seafoam and brought the greeks to troy, but now they just run. they run their laps, and a bunch of drunks scream at them for not being fast enough, for not knowing the terrain well enough, as if that's something they can control. because race can't control it, but he's still trying his damnedest to run the course as well as he can. he's always doing as much as he can as fast as he can - he's the second, for god's sake, he has to. but as much as he tries to keep it under control, to follow the bends and jump every hurdle, there's always going to be a point where he stumbles. where his ankle twists or his hoof splits too far to fix. if he's lucky, he'll retire - but most likely, he'll be led out by the nose towards a carrot and a shotgun, and then maybe his bones can be melted down into something useful. that's all he tries to be - useful. a hard worker, a fast runner. but up until he breaks, he's just going to be a joke.

that said, if you do want a good poem about horses, maybe check out 'at grass' by philip larkin. it's not necessarily race-coded but there were a few lines that made me think of what his life might be like after he stopped being a newsie; standing anonymous, his racing name gone, his past victories plaguing his ears like flies.

you know i must have been bone-tired when this part of the herb brides lore didn't come to my mind when i discussed how the Kin fundamentally differs from the cultures it is inspired by um There Is The Human Sacrifice part. like it's an important part of pathologic 2 that you are doing human, or anthropomorphic (if you want to see the Herb Brides as closer to spirits, which comes with its own set of problematics regarding how to approach their oppression) sacrifice. it's an important part of pathologic 2 that you kill a woman, as part of the journey and in direct resonance with you ritualistically killing cattle earlier, and she offers herself to you with cultural and religious significance.

human sacrifices have been done across the globe for millennia, but i cannot, for the life of me, find any source at all that mentions the Buryats (since that was the discussion point) partaking in human sacrifices by the turn of the 19th-early 20th century (or even anything past the 16th). every single source mentioning offerings and sacrifices i've read mentions animals, things such as milk and vodka, and often both at once. would love to read anything about these rituals if papers exist, but i'm personally drawing a blank.

the Kin has Obvious and very Visible influences but it also differs from specific (in this discussion's case, the Buryats) or wider (here, turkic/mongolic as a whole) cultures from the area by so many pieces, big and small, that i wouldn't have enough appendages on my whole body to count them all. and sister. i have plenty of appendages.

If you have a horse and are writing troll stuff and don’t make a trollsona thing that’s a mix of you and your horse? Then what’s the point??

Can’t say it’s super accurate but hey, it was just a quick thing. I’m not quite this dark but my horse is a bay sooooo guess what? Don’t really care? Also my fluffy jean jacket is something I adore.

I know it’s kinda boring with all the brown. My horse is bay and I’ve got brown hair and brown eyes. Okay then!

does anyone have recommendations for fictional media that has like. actual lesbians in it. not like supergirl Two White Skinny Girls, One Blonde and One Brunette Kiss media, or "its implied lesbianism!!!" but just regular fucking lesbians

hello.....i heard that perhaps if i ask nicely .. i may get a snippet .. please <333333

HI LAURA I MISS YOU HOW ARE YOU!! sorry this is days late…. for your troubles and asking so nicely here’s a longer snippet:

Are they dating in your gameplay?

no actually i have this lgbt+ mod, so casper asked coco to be his queerplatonic partner which is funny to me because you know the real casper has never heard of that in his entire life but it's really not far off... it's kinda glitchy in how it interacts with my other mods but it's sweet!

i’ve never done pc/pc romance in dnd, it feels so much more exciting than dm/pc romance i’m so hype
