Hi! I’m Tay. I love Dragon Age, I love character driven stories, I like to goof off in a lot of rpgs & build games—& I’m a real life horse girl. 🤪🏇

Gaming, writing & drawing are my fun spaces. I’m here for a good time—& to get inordinately preoccupied with complicated sad lonely characters🤩

If anyone mentions football to me I just might attack them (I’m blaming this on that fucking game and that fucking man even though yes I know it’s actually a her problem)

Help I’m still crashing out over Taylor swift calling football “violent chess” ,,,,,, and then using a ditzy “tehe” voice to describe her own work,,,,,,,,,I’m sorry but that alone is making me discard 16 years of being a fan

If you accidentally pinch your knee she might gallop; like I’m sorry you gotta know wtf you’re doing (and be able to handle “surprises”) if you’re going to ride my horse. She’s amazing!!! A goddess! Will jump ANYTHING! From ANY DISTANCE!! But if you’re not on her level you might die

The funny thing is, I’d praise my horse to the ends of the earth—she is a real life saint—but, I also would never ever, ever, but someone on her that wasn’t extremely experienced. Like she is so level 1000 advanced I’d actually think she’d unintentionally hurt someone if they weren’t ready for her

It’s kind of like the “dog person” vs “cat person” mentality; and tbh im BOTH. Im just, i want every animal ever in o know me as their person. But chestnut mares….they are the Alphas. And they are so smart and so sassy, and it takes a certain person to handle them lmao

the dread horsegirl 🏇 @dreadhorsegirl.bsky.social · 2d

There’s this thing in the equestrian community where some of us are called “bay gelding girls” and some are called “chestnut mare girls” & I mean; definitely a chestnut mare girly (sensitive, might kill you, but my god the loyalty if you win it)

Literally I bought her for “chump change” (in the horse world) and she’s only 8 years old (young for horses btw) and she’s just the absolute best. I just have extremely high expectations of myself and I’m not meeting all of them but HER? A fucking QUEEN

the dread horsegirl 🏇 @dreadhorsegirl.bsky.social · 2d

My mare always has to fling her tail over every single jump—and it’s like, go off girl. I see you (making the extra effort that is absolutely not needed; but eew I don’t want to touch the icky rails 😤)

Oh damn 😬 okay then sir RUN AWAY FROM HER

I’m interested to get into the politics side of things—def feels like we’re learning a bit more about this conflict of interest”normal people” vs everyone they deem as “other” (that’s how it always goes)

the dread horsegirl 🏇 @dreadhorsegirl.bsky.social · 3d

Okay so I guess Triss was an ex??? Idk what’s happening tbh but, I’m sensing there’s “he left her” vibes

So Theleme is this very religious nation set on converting everyone…the Bridge Alliance is in pursuit of science; but also a bit conquer-y. & they are at war with eachother. & the congregation(De Sardet’s land) (so far) is like “I don’t want anything to do do with this we need to heal our people”

also obviously there's a terrible sickness/plague of somesort and she's set to find some sort of cure....def an intrigueing start, and also very curious as to why she has this mark on her face. It has not been discussed whatsoever and I don't think it's supposed to be a tattoo

MAGA and its agenda are *wildly* unpopular, and media are hugely out of touch for not saying so. Politicians who tap into this reality will thrive, and media outlets that reflect this truth will earn enormous audiences.

I like how the news will be like “while the President claiming Portland was ruled by a giant skeleton named Mr Nibbles is not strictly true, it does speak to the anxiety of many Americans”
