#good practical experiences

Did my first exams for my saddlefitting course: an 8 for riders (basic anatomy, biomechanics, what happens if rider does so and so on the horse), and a 7.8 for horses (anatomy, biomechanics, palpating muscles and bones, spotting lameness etc.), so I can confidently move on to the next part: fixing and fitting saddles!
I have a jumping-, dressage- and multipurpose saddle and three older Icelandic saddles to both take to school with me and to practise at home.
And my dad offered to clear out his old office which he doesn’t use anymore so I have a place to practise now and work next year.
🎉
#*myhorses#sort of#I WAS SO NERVOUS FOR THIS TEST LET ME TELL YOU#but! did a lot of things to really have some insight#like visiting the university in Utrecht where lots and I mean LOTS of skeletons are available to look at up close#took my riding instructor who used to be a vet with me for some extra help#got to see the ligaments ON the cervical and thoracic vertebrae#and a lot of the inside of horses…which took an adjustment in the head for a bit#but fascinating to see#and I went to see other riders ride with the sole purpose of just looking at what they’re doing#how do they sit in the saddle? how’s their posture? how does it influence where the saddle sits and how the horse moves?#good practical experiences#and my instructor is so so helpful to have with

I came here for the silly haha doodles, but I've stayed for the absolutely blazing commentary in the tags. Your analysis of this story is so so so good! Thanks for all the work and thought you put into this!
I am just a silly little comics blog. I am not hiding anything in the tags, no way. Never.
#ask#digital art#I truly am grateful for the amount of people that not only read my journal-essay-thoughts on my comics#but also take the time to respond and/or write their own thoughts on the themes and scenes.#I really love taking apart stories and seeing how the threads weave together. Like flipping over an embroidered tapestry!#Some people thinks it ruins the illusion of what a story is - to me it *elevates* the experience to see the seams.#It's like knowing how they did the practical effects and stunts in a movie. It give you a deeper appreciation for the work that went into i#Thank you for acknowledging the work I put into every part of this project!#When I started drawing I....well...wasn't really the strongest with my visuals.#Humorously recapping scenes played off of my strengths (silly billying) and also just made the project *fun*.#But right from the start I also wanted to take my time and marinate on the themes and journal my thoughts.#I never really expected people to read them!#What might seem like a quick comic takes me several hours and I often spend a good bit of time with my tag essays too.#I owe so much to everyone who's dropped by to cheer me on and make this blog into part of the community.#to those who just lurk or drop by once in a blue moon - I thank you as well for coming along for the journey.#So even though it adds extra time; these little essays are a treat for you B*)

Can I be a lesbian for a quick moment here?
The Agatha x Rio kiss was so fucking beautiful, not only because it was desperate and passionate and heartbreaking, but because it had RHYTHM!!
Yes, passion and desperation in a kiss can often be "sloppy", but like damn, these bitches kissed in a way that's so profoundly telling of their connection, of knowing the others' rhythm and breaths and tendencies. It looked like the most natural thing to ever happen. Truly some gourmet life long lovers shit 👌🏻👌🏻
#agatha all along#agatha all along spoilers#agatha all along finale spoilers#agatha harkness#rio vidal#agathario#agatha x rio#did Kathryn and Aubrey practice that cause my good it looked so fucking natural#or was it just their girl kisser experience#cause as much as I love seeing some straight actresses play lesbian roles#and they kill the emotional part#most of the time it's so easy to tell they only ever kissed men#oop#kathryn hahn#aubrey plaza

What a lot of people don't understand about navigating the "real world" as a neurodivergent person is that we were told all the rules of society growing up that we naturally followed, only to find out later just how often neurotypical people are either breaking those rules or operating off completely unwritten ones to get themselves ahead and that somehow ND's are the "dumbasses" for not realizing that these unwritten rules and rule-breaking is the "norm" despite that norm going against all the rules and values that were drilled into us from birth that we were expected and predisposed to follow.
#just two cents from a neurodivergent trying to live in a neurotypical's world#it's been a harrowing experience learning just how much i was taught to navigate the real world isn't done in practice at ALL#the majority of hollywood is built on nepotism#many successful “gurus” within their respective industries are complete shams who either failed upwards or broke the “rules” to get there#many of these industries are simply built on socializing and knowing people rather than actual skill or capabilities#it's like the adult equivalent of “lmao you really BELIEVED that lie i just told you that you took in good faith??? you're so gullible!!!”

The world if people stopped applying their understanding of "conservatism" and "religion/christianity" through a very modern, deeply American view onto Death Note (a manga from the Early-mid 2000s which is very much set in the cultural and societal context of early-mid 2000s Japan and all that entails):
#death note#fandom wank#i just be ramblin#listen I get it there's christian imagery#it's not bad to go over what that entails and whatnot. fun even#but beyond some potential parallels and symbols you have to understand that this is a japanese story set in japan in the early-mid 2000s#(and later an imagined 'future' from there)#you are not understanding the story if you're placing the characters on a political spectrum of beliefs based on what conservatism looks#like to you#you're superimposing your personal modern experiences and your country's societal/cultural state onto Death Note and it's characters and#calling it 'a reading'#I genuinely don't know how many more times I can endure people acting like Soichiro Yagami and Teru Mikami have the exact same set of#beliefs and religion and standards as a Southern USA republican/ultra conservative super christian#Or hell. People assuming that Light Yagami can't ever be relatable because someone like Light looks to them like a teacher's wet dream of a#perfect student who is always working hard and studying#when the truth is that while Light is the top student in Japan at one point‚ everything he is doing is within the realm of expectation for#'good' Japanese students. Not exceptional or supernatural or beyond dedicated. Good.#This is a manga where the time period and the setting and society at the time are deeply important#And you will never hope to have an understanding by forcing it to conform to what 'normal' society looks like to you#relating to character's experiences can go beyond relating and end up in territory where you're superimposing your experiences onto their#fictional reality and calling it canon#edit (because people put some good tags on this post): even though I was kind of vague about it this also goes for assuming that#christianity is the only possible religion any characters could be into#the options aren't either athiesm or christianity. there are other big religions in Japan#and in the same way Christianity colors American society and experiences even for people who have never practiced‚ so goes the way society#and people's general beliefs are influenced by Japan's major religions#the person in the tags who mentioned Shinto gets a cookie

Me: yeah, nothing wrong with it and I enjoy it from time to time, but teen Stancest isn't that interesting to me
Also me: *reads the phrase "I don't know if I'll be able to stop" during a teen Stancest part of a fic and now I'm thinking of writing a teen Stancest fic*
#stancest#oh how the mighty have fallen 😔#genuinely considering it#that phrase has been haunting me dudes#especially in that context. oh god#btw the context for that quote is that teen stancest decide to kiss like once#as kinda an experiment? kinda practice?#and then one of them (idr which one) says that#like “...i dont know of ill be able to bring myseld to stop” (kissing you)#and it was so OUGH#literally it was so good

hope you feel better soon!
I am riddled with ailments, but I stay silly!
#ask#non mdzs#My health journey has been: Hernia -> acid reflux -> Vocal pain due to aforementioned reflux -> chest infection.#I'm terrified to know what's about to hit me next. Please let it be something kind. PLEASE.#The consequence of living with linguists is that you'll wake up with a wacked up voice -#suddenly you're sitting you down in front of a program called something like Praat having your shimmer and jitter levels calibrated.#They gave me a GRBAS of 33012. I have a fun thing called a pitch break where a whole octave just does not exist.#My vocal pain was bad enough I ended up seeing a speech pathologist and that whole experience was super neat!#I learnt a lot about voice - to be honest I might make a little comic on it after some more research. Fascinating stuff.#For example; your mental perception of our voice modulates the muscles of the vocal folds and larynx.#meaning that when you do have changes (inflammation = more mass = lower frequency)#your brain automatically attempts to correct it to what it 'should sound like'. Leading to a lot more vocal strain and damage!#And it gets really interesting for trans voice care as well - because the mental perception of one's voice isn't based on an existing sampl#So a good chunk of trans voice training is also done with the idea of finding one's voice and retraining the brain to accept it. Neat!#Parkinsonial Voice also has this perception to musculature link! The perception is that they are talking at a loud/normal volume#but the actual voice is quite breathy and weak. So vocal training works on practicing putting more effort into the voice#and retraining the brain to accept the 'loud' voice as 'normal'.#Isn't the human body fascinating?#Anyhow; Now I have vocal exercises and strategies to reduce strain and promote healing.#Which is a lot better than my previous strategy of yelling AAAH in my car until my 'voice smoothed out'.#You can imagine the horror on the speech path's face. I am an informed creature now.#I'm my own little lab rat now. I love learning and researching. Welcome to my tag lab. Class is dismissed.#I'll be back later with a few more answered asks </3 despite everything I'm still going to work and I need the extra sleep.#Thank you for the well wishes! And if you read all of that info dump; thank you for that as well!

got some more tiny paper to try out, so I painted a tiny Max F whilst catching up on his stream from the other day
A. Gallo watercolours + coloured pencil on Jacksons Two Rivers 300gsm paper, approx. 3.5" square
#he didn't turn out entirely how I'd planned but it was good practice#max fewtrell#max f#watercolour#quadrant#my art#my f1 art#adjacent anyway#the paper is 100% cotton of course but INCREDIBLY heavy sized#(ie a lot of like the binder that helps the paper resist turning into mush)#so it's weirdly resistant to water but can also handle a Lot#v fun experience#will not be buying full sheets though bc they're incredibly expensive#and a pack of three different weights of this size is 50p

Big shout-out to the ocs and lore that depicts physical/appearance changes due to high concentration and uses of magic btw that shit is so cool. Whether your wizard's hair turns blue or straight up grows an extra arm due to the excessive amount of powerful magic they use everyday I eat that shit up. Bonus points if it's a rare/newly discovered condition or if your wizard is just straight up unrecognizable from arc 1 to arc 4. Bonus bonus points if the wizard gains a disability from it and has to learn to adapt to their new condition
#holly steelcry was shroter than average before the paradox in empyrea thing. they grew 3 ft after that#also got personal hcs of shadow magic in particular having physical and mental adverse effects to those who practice it regularly#i froth at the mouth whenever i see wizard ocs that have extra or atypical features due to their magical experiences#i actually have an eldritch wizard au where they slowly become less Human and more Thing. personality wise theyre still chill-#-but physically they look like Nyarlathotep#one random shadow magic hc - physical scars start to form on your body based on that person's biggest mental block/trauma#shadow practioner young wizard has strange scars that looks like a clawed hand wrapped around their throat or an azteca constellation#<- due to their unresolved guilt over azteca#or scars over their stomach that look like monsteous spider legs stretched outwards due to their guilt of being fooled by gf spider#wizard101#w101#wiz101#text posts#ALL WIZARD OCS ARE BOMB BTW I DIDNT MEAN JUST ONE TYPE OF OCS. EVERY OC IS AWESOME#i just get the Good Feelings whenever i see that specific type of oc/lore for some reason
