And yet, unhitched from the menial task of transportation, the average horse today enjoys a far better quality of life than the average pre-car horse. Why? Horse girls. You see, now that the market demand for horses is no longer based on actual horsepower, horses can render the service of “just being themselves” for those who appreciate that most (in much more forgiving circumstances). In this way, horses truly are forever… and the real losers really are mankind. And its machines. In this essay, I will

Like can you even imagine?
It’s kinda weird that between unicorns, centaurs, giraffes, and horses, horses are the only made-up ones. Like come on, giraffes? Really? It’s a centaur with a dumb face, but instead of a chest and arms it’s just more neck?
Giraffes aren’t made up? Your pulling my leg
Yeah, living with [email protected] is really tough…
I once thought I saw a real horse. Turned out it was just a unicorn that lost its horn
I hear age can make you less horny.
That’s just bolt cutters
This literally happened to my great grandfather in the late 1920s. He bought a car, got distracted by the sight of a pretty lady, and drove into a swamp. He was yelling “whoa! whoa!” and pulling back on the steering wheel while the car went off the road. That is what he had done his whole life to stop a horse drawn buggy in an emergency. He told my grandfather, who was riding with him at the time, that he could have the car if he could get it out of the swamp. He said he was going back to his horse and buggy because a horse wouldn’t have run off the road into a swamp no matter what he looked at. He continued to use a horse and buggy for all of his transportation needs until he died in the mid 1960s. #FuckCars
You can’t even eat your car if it died or if you are hungry!
Hello, I am an internal combustion car. I can’t go very fast unless the road is all paved, or very far unless you spend billions bringing fuel from thousand of kilometers to feed me. And if you drive me, people will think you’re NOT gay!
if you drive me, people will think you’re NOT gay!
Time for me to get a horse.
“Hahaha” laughs in invasive species
Fun fact, there are more domesticated horses now then there were at the hight of horses being used as transportation. I found this out when a reporter asked Jay Leno, an avid classic car collector, if he was upset about the CA law that makes only EVs legal to sell as new cars in CA by a certain date. He said he totally approved of the measure, and that there was nothing to worry about for classic car collectors, and citing horse ownership rates.
You sure about that? I found this graph [Source] for population of farm based horses.
They only look at US based horses, but according to World Population Review the US are the top owners of horses, having 18% of them
Yeah, but there are a lot of neglected emaciated horses from people that shouldn’t have horses.
Hey I’ve been searching for solid stats about this. Are you sure? Because there used to be a lot of hotses!
There are also a shitload more humans now. Even if number of horses per capita is lower, the fact that there are more people may compensate for that.
So there’s just going to be few humans per capita of AI in the future ?
Of course not. AI need a purpose, something to work for and take care of, and humans are needy little critters.
Fuck your Subaru I’ve a horse outside
Who cares what time it is, I have a Rolex.
Nobody drives in NYC there’s too much traffic
Horses are superior. When your car break down, you’ll starve to death. Horses, however… 😋
have already starved to death because there’s no food available within 5 standard miles, they tripped over a curb and broke their leg, and some shady looking feller keeps hanging around in the creek back yonder that looks at them shifty…
If you can get me a car I can pass out drunk in and it’ll still get me home and steal a policeman’s cap, I’ll ride it.
I’d rather have a ultralight carbon fiber donkey carriage
Horse sellers were apparently shaking in their boots when automobiles were invented 😆
One car dealer still in operation today is Normandin, who started out selling horse-drawn carriages.
Smart business make a pivot to new technology.
There are articles from before the automobile discussing the pollution problems with horses. Apparently horses poop, a lot.
They do, but it’s an easy fix. Just need a poop bag that catches it as it falls.
Or, do what the nearby horse farm does, just head to my neighborhood and leave the horse shit all over the trail and the road and people’s yards!
Seems kind of rude to me, but what do I know.
Also the infrastructure for getting rid of those bags…
Imagine a human being able to shit without stopping movement at any time, into a portable bag of feces.
The mind shudders
Such person would be too free from the shackles of humanity
This cannot, it must not ever happen
And this is why trousers are the work of the devil.
this is called a colostomy bag but I think most users would disagree that dealing with the bag cleanup is worth the ability to shit on the go lol

At least that’s biodegradable
“Horses Are Forever” is also the poorly received first draft of Sean Connery’s final Eon-produced James Bond movie.
Equestrians are now free from menial labor and can focus on their Only Horse accounts.
Did you have to säy this shit
Buy my nfts then.
