Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 20/05/2025I like it when we feel as if we're one in purpose, no barriers or strife. No micromanaging or chastising. 040
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 16/05/2025Horses aren't "less domesticated" than cats, dogs, or cattle, this idea comes from people INTENTIONALLY leaving them feral. A couple factors are unhandled horses find pressure even more aversive, creating stronger reactions to less force, and myths about "overly" handled horses being dangerous. 140
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 15/05/2025The more I learn about the history behind sciences like sociology and psychology, the more I realize the excuse of "we just didn't know any better then!" doesn't hold up. People tried to study and teach better, and they got violently buried, metaphorically and sometimes literally. 040
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 12/05/2025It's interesting both being a "bitless, doesn't give a shit about the trends in the arena, just wants to climb mountains" horse person while also being a "goes into a manic episode braiding and currying and clipping and tail bagging" horse person both at the same time Not a lot of overlap there 040

Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 06/05/2025Beyond dominance theory just being incorrect in horses definitively, it's so myopic and cynical. It's dreary how horse people desperately hold onto such harmful beliefs BECAUSE THEY'RE REAL when it's like... what, your standard for REALISTIC!! is a fucking Zach Snyder movie? 041
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Horse people stop confusing obedience for love and joy challenge tbh 010
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 04/05/2025Despite popular consensus, horse diets are not up to vibes and interpretation. Oats don't soothe their stomachs. Sweet feed doesn't add anything useful. "Grain" isn't the useful part of "feeding grain", it's the fortification. All horses need constant access to forage. 071

Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 06/04/2025"gaited horses don't collect like trotting horses!" i want to say 'i don't know where this comes from!' but i know where it comes from and it's saddleseat where even the tailset is artificial and painful anyway here's some natural collection from a gaited horse lol 060
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 04/04/2025Still thinking about how people pit the idea of science and empathy against each other. They are both required SIMULTANEOUSLY to create a better world. 061
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 03/04/2025When people leap into conversation on what microbes cause equine thrush with "yeast", it irritates the shit out of me because, while I do think fungus plays a role potentially, most of our current research shows the primary pathogen is bacteria AND YEAST IS HUMAN THRUSH. Horse people LEARN TO READ 040
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 31/03/2025There are anti vaxxer horse people who are against vaccines because they have a tiny amount of formaldehyde, but then use hoof hardeners with formaldehyde without PPE. 170
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 31/03/2025I am irritated that metal shoes are sold as a cure when they don't TREAT lameness, they MASK it indefinitely. The aspects of lameness where they become necessary to alleviate discomfort and pathology are better aided by composites and boots due to the latter two's fewer negative effects. 061

Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 25/03/2025Someday I'll make real tutorials instead of DRAW GOOD NOT BAD but for now I'm busy with school and just trying to dispel the idea of a horse hoof being a weird meat can 081
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 21/03/2025I've seen "My horse just CAN'T be barefoot, we tried, but he was so much more comfortable sound!" So many times followed by a video of their horse barefoot and a little tender next to a video of their horse with pain face, short striding, and all toe first landings with worse angles in metal shoes. 140
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 18/03/2025So many people with horses who have health problems will ask for help then, when they receive it, are like, "How I'm doing things now is the only thing that works for him!" And what they're doing ISN'T WORKING LMAO 070
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 17/03/2025Have any of y'all had experience securing shade cloth in a livestock trailer? 000
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 16/03/2025Just because something is marketed "for horses" doesn't mean it benefits them. Feed, tack, whatever. Research it. Make sure it's actually healthy for them. And I don't just mean read off the brand website lmao 071
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 16/03/2025The satisfaction of a perfect, on cue walk to lope transition has lasted me months I'm still not over it 080
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 14/03/2025I've noticed that pop culture likes to pit science and art against one another, "logic vs feeling" and all those fun false dichotomies. Conversely, I've noticed it's much more frequent that science and art are TOGETHER against tyranny and its family of brutality, control, and selfishness 🤷♂️ 031
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 14/03/2025"It doesn't make a meaningful difference for one person to recycle/rescue one animal/give to charity/pick up trash/literally any good deed" Partly correct, join us :) 053
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 14/03/2025There's a paradox in neurodivergent mental health I keep thinking about. Some people are drained by constantly being out in public but simultaneously, being human, still need social interaction. Finding the perfect balance is difficult, also requiring the right KIND of socializating. 230
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 12/03/2025I'm watching my girlfriend argue with someone who's saying food rewards are dishonest, unfair, and make horses anxious as she pauses the slappy fight to inject a feral stud colt with a vaccine using R+ LMAO I think it might've worked 3100
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 11/03/2025"I've worked with hundreds of horses and positive reinforcement never worked!" There's a suspicious common denominator here and it's not if horse's behavior can be modified by food LOL 1104
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 11/03/2025You'll see the most badass horse up for sale with tens of thousands of earnings, star studded pedigree, clever registered name, outstanding under saddle, and the motherfucker's barn name is like, Johnathan Or like William 190
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 10/03/2025I don't like honoring harsh horse trainers with the title "traditional". Spurs and treats, bits and brushes, have been used for thousands of years, sometimes by the same riders like Xenophon, even though the precise science is recent. I think I find "discipline" or "dominance" based more accurate. 040
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 10/03/2025I think my biggest fundamental disagreement with most discipline based horse trainers is that I do not want horses I handle associating pressure with fear because that causes them to escalate when they fear pressure. I want pressure to be solely associated with the behavior. 140
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 09/03/2025It's incredible that you can be like "Fun fact! Horses DON'T like to be punched in the face" And there's a weirdly large group of people who will storm up to you scolding how dare you accuse them of abuse and that you know nothing about horses 2111
Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 08/03/2025People feeding their wildly unhealthy pet double the already bloated recommended serving of the cheapest feed available: I don't know, I just can't afford feed that isn't exclusively made up of the cheapest available species inappropriate byproducts 130

Tzar @pulsetzar.bsky.social · 20/02/2025I remember hearing, "everyone who wants to be gentle with horses is enjoying a horse broken out by someone else, they just don't like the methods" Implying that people are just outsourcing the beating to someone else if they don't do it themselves LMAO Glad I haven't seen this take in a cool minute 280
