I appreciate everyone has precious little spare cash at the moment. If, however, you did feel you could part with a few pounds, then it would mean a lot to me if you donated to this. I'm raising money for Lewy Body Dementia, which is responsible for my family being in the worst time of our lives.

A live music venue called the Duncan Showroom has old pianos outside for passersby to play. In this black-and-white photograph, there is also a wooden ticket kiosk outside the entrance.An old poster from a previous 39 Days of July music festival covers a doorway in the side of the Duncan Showroom music venue. There is ivy growing to the left and over the top of the poster. A plastic milk crate has been left on the ground in front of the doorway.

The horse op-ed is an instant classic. I can't tell you how much joy this piece gives me. It should be taught in every introductory writing class in no small part because the horse arguments are so compelling. "I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children."
I Work Very Hard, And I Would Like To Try Cake

By A Horse

Hello. I am a horse. I work very hard at my job of being a horse. When humans say move the heavy thing, I move the heavy thing. When humans sit on top of me and pull on my head, I carry them where they want to go. The main food the humans give me is hay and oats. But I am thinking it would be nice to have a different food.

I am thinking I would like to try cake.

Yes, yes. Cake. I know all about it. When humans eat cake, it is in glad times. It is the food for a celebration, such as when a woman becomes 47. I have seen cake on the Fourth of July. When humans have a cake, they stand around it and clap hands and smile and say happy birthday at each other. Sometimes there are beautiful markings on a cake, such as balloons or a pink shape.

Sometimes the top of a cake is on fire and a boy must blow on the fire with mouth wind. This is the scariest cake. I do not want this kind. But I will eat any other cake. Any cake that is not the fire cake that tries to kill the boy.

Please understand: I do not get money for doing work. I do not get to go inside the house. All I am either doing my horse job or standing in my pen or eating food off the floor. I always do these things. But I have never once gotten cake and I would like it very much.

I have noticed that human children get to eat cake. But I am bigger than the children. I am more helpful to the farm. Children do not move the heavy things like me or let anyone ride on them. And yet they get cake. Maybe the humans will realize this. Maybe they will say, "You  know who deserves cake? That horse. That horse whose back we are always on."

Every day I dream about what it will be like if I get to eat cake. Here is what will happen. First, I will walk to the cake and putt my nose at it like hrrfff to make and stomping my hooves to make sure it is not a snake. Then I will trot in a circle to show that I am a horse and I am large. After that, I will nuzzle the cake to …

This always happens. The Elder Gods determine who is worthy and appoint a Champion. Then they go to wherever Elder Gods go for a well earned nap. After some indeterminate time, they'll awaken and instruct their mouthpiece on Earth about a new Challenge. All Praise the Elder Gods.
