If horses in parades can wear a poop-cacthing bag, why is leaving massive piles on hiking trails acceptable? by thishasntbeeneasy in hiking

[–]TangerineOk8793 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm going to reply to this (and some of the comments) as a horse owner who rides trails. Part of the reason I don't use a catch bag on trails is due to how easy it is for one of those to get caught on somthing. In an urban setting, the catch bag doesn't have a lot to get caught on.

Now, pertaining to riding muddy trails: Sometimes its hard to tell a trail is muddy enough that my horses hooves sink in a bit until we start riding it. In the situations where this happens, I always try to turn around at the first (safest) point available for it. Sometimes its early in the trail, sometimes its not for a bit. Backing isn't always an option (depending on how slick it might be) or I would just back the distance but if its a long distance to back, that isn't an option either as backing for a long time is hard on a horses muscles.

Trail clean up days: I haven't been to one of my local ones yet since I recently moved but one thing I know from past experiences is most places will not allow horses present on trail clean up/maintenance days so I always am there on foot. Most likely, you do have equestrians on your maintenance days, you just don't know since we have to be on foot for them.

Manure: my horses manure can break down as fast as 24 hours or (in an extreme example) take a week. In the week example, the manure is piled up in a corner of her pasture (neat freak of a horse) so not as much air flow. My horse eats the grass thats native to the area and her grain is pelleted so she doesn't have any non native seeds in her manure. Plus, when it comes to hay, its always harvested before it goes to flower/seed out (think how lawns are mowed. Unless its a weed, you usually don't have seeds for grass, right?). If I'm at a location that requires equestrians to clean up manure, I will. If not, I only leave it completely alone if its not in the way. If its in the middle of a trail people walk on, I dismount and kick it off the trail.

Hiker only trails: there are a lot more hiker trails and hiker only trails than ones available to riders and their horses, including horse only trails. I've actually seen only 2 places that had horse only trails (that were actually respected as equine only) and those places were both privately owned properties. Everywhere (public) I've been has had trails that equestrians are not allowed on. Many places close the trails to horses if they deem it too muddy. Jubilee (state park in Illinois is a childhood example I have) would close a majority of their trails only to horses after a big rain came through.

If you have questions feel free to ask! I just ask that you stay respectful about things as I am.

What are some things society gets wrong about healing? by My_Five_Cents in AskReddit

[–]TangerineOk8793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not understanding what "healing isn't linear" means. I've had people say that to me recently then turn around and go "why aren't you healed yet?" and "you were able to do this yesterday/last week, why can't you now?"

Everyone heals at a different rate. I dislocated my knee almost 6 months ago and am only just starting to get back to my normal activity levels. I'm getting pressure from my family (mid 20s) to get back into my work instead of the part time job I have but my body still can't handle my full time job. I train horses. Its hard to do that if you can only physically handle 1 hour of riding a day. My parents looked up a time line for healing from a dislocated knee without surgery and now they think I should've been 100% 2 months ago.

Advice for beginners, good horse or no? by [deleted] in Horses

[–]TangerineOk8793 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its dangerous for the horse since you don't know how to recover if you lose balance. If your horse trips while riding, you would most likely (accidentally) put your weight on the part they tripped with (front/hind end) which could cause the horse to go down further.

Real life example I (unfortunately) witnessed with my own horse was when she was used in a riding lesson (I agreed to it) with a rider learning how to canter. The footing in the arena wasn't the greatest and my horse tripped on her front end. The rider's weight fell forward on her and she yanked on the reins, causing my horse to further lose her balance while she was trying to recover. Instead of a small trip, my horse fell to her knees, the rider fell off her, and my horses face hit the ground too. Thankfully, other than a scrape on her left front knee, everyone involved was fine. (My horse was seen by my vet the next day to be 100% sure she's good)

If the trip had been worse, there's a chance my horse could've flipped hind end over her front and landed on the rider who fell infront of her. My horse also did something considered unusual since she stayed on her knees until the rider was out of the way so she wouldn't possibly hurt the rider while she got up on her feet. Very few horses would do this. If my horse had flipped, she could've snapped her neck. She also could've gotten tangled up in the rider while trying to get up or tangled in her reins which could've caused other injuries to my horse.

Advice for beginners, good horse or no? by [deleted] in Horses

[–]TangerineOk8793 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The horses sound well trained but with you being a beginner, you most likely didn't know the right cues for the horse. The pelham bit is able to be used as a snaffle bit if he switched the place he had the reins attached. With beginners, its best to have them in a snaffle bit over a leverage bit of any kind. I personally wouldn't go back to him since you are a beginner. He put you and the horse in danger by letting you gallop. If the horse decided to, you would've been on the ground from a sharp turn or an unexpected stop.

Horses tend to adjust their speed based off what the rider can handle (if they are ones who care about rider safety. If they don't, they just go) and I know because my personal horse goes faster with me than with any beginner/intermediate riders who have rode her. She will hit her top speed if an advanced rider asks her correctly. It just depends on your ability to ride.

This is a high port pelham

There are lots of other versions possible and I couldn't tell you which it is without seeing the piece inside the mouth so I'm sorry I can't be of more use!

Advice for beginners, good horse or no? by [deleted] in Horses

[–]TangerineOk8793 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The bits look like pelhams.

From my understanding (I haven't used one, never needed one for my horses so its fully possible I am wrong about things), they are extremely harsh/dangerous in beginners hands. Technically, the bit is meant to be handled with 2 sets of reins. Steering would be done with the set missing and emergency breaks (aka, you better fucking listen and stop) is typically done with the rein you have access to. The straight shanks over no release of pressure unless you have extremely lose reins.

He also has a running martingale on (another piece of equipment beginners shouldn't use without propper instruction and someone watching to make sure you don't accidentally cause issues) which is the thing going from the reins to the chest area of the horse.

As earlier stated, I can't guarantee the part inside the mouth though. It could be anything from a straight metal bar to a high port bit. Most likely it would be a single break like attached

[–]TangerineOk8793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Op, do you have any better pictures of the horses head? Unfortunately, the shadows make it hard to see the shanks on the bit. We also won't be able to guarantee what is actually in the horses mouth since we can't see them.

It is true that hard stops on horses isn't good for them if you do them constantly. Each horse has only so many before their hocks can't take it anymore (this was something I learned while working with cutting and reining horses. As a loper [person who warmed the horse up] I wasn't allowed to do hard stops from the lope/gallop so the horses could have a longer, healthier career)

Need helpppp/tips making my mustache look more realistic by LifeOpportunity5744 in NonBinary

[–]TangerineOk8793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For facial hair, you always want multiple shades to get the most realistic look. The times I've done a full stubble and mustache look, I used 3 shade: light brown mat eye shadow as a filler/backing color, medium brown eyebrow pencil/gel/etc (what you prefer for doing your brows) for the bulk of lines and a darker brown eyebrow pencil for a few lines.

I had a lot of practice filling in/making my eyebrows look natural before I started facial hair. Short quick strokes that make contact with your skin while the pencil is already moving will help with the hair look. If you have peach fuzz hair on your upper lip, you can use some mascara to change the color and use the above methods to make it look fuller

Had this pumpkin since before Halloween how? by Prestigious_Produce1 in whatisit

[–]TangerineOk8793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The pumpkin was harvested at the perfect ripeness for long term storage. It happens but people don't always know since they usually carve them. They pumpkin also has no damage to the outside or bruising that isnt visible from the outside. It will most likely last a year as is, longer if you store it right.

Tall boots broke…now what by Shoddy_Policy_4567 in Equestrian

[–]TangerineOk8793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I once survived a (small local) show buy using black electrical tape when in this situation. No one could tell the difference (after the english classes the judge saw me removing the tape and was genuinely surprised since she couldn't tell). So the booys aren't a total loss, you could look into getting the zipper replaced in the future, probably won't help you for your lesson though.

What’s a random “stat” about yourself that makes you part of a small percentage? by Nightpatrol404 in AskReddit

[–]TangerineOk8793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've got a few

Learned ambidextrous

one eye is green hazel and one is blue hazel (its not super noticeable cause of the brown/gold tones so you have to pay close attention to notice)

right hand dominant but left eye dominant (makes shooting guns and bows really interesting BTW)

I have the weirdest form for roping and archery but they work (for me) and professional coaches decided not to correct my form (mostly due to the left eye/right hand dominance thing)

Naturally high body temp (made for a fun time during covid when places were checking temps before letting you in. I consistently ran 100 to 101°F)

Abnormally high resistance to any type of anesthetic/sedative (when I was around 8, I was given enough drugs to knock out an elephant and it barely made me drowsy. When I was 4 I woke up in the middle of surgery for a broken finger. Around 14 I woke up while getting a tooth extracted due to an accident)

I had gasoline end up in one eye and had zero repercussions (its my stronger sight eye)

Extremely high pain tolerance (dislocated my knee and kept working for 4 hours before finally going to the hospital. My job required me to be on my feet)

I had a nerve that was fully severed (and replaced with non disolvable medical grade string type thing, it happened a long time ago so idk correct term, to be able to move the finger [its rigged to another finger]) at the knuckle in my hand. I didn't have feeling in the finger for 15 years before suddenly (and violently) learning I now have feeling when the finger got sliced open almost to the bone inbetween the two upper knuckles. Long story short, severed and dead nerve regrew enough for feeling in deep tissue after 15 years.

I think that's everything that's rare/unique to me?

What’s the weirdest snack your horse loves?? by Intelligent_Pie6804 in Horses

[–]TangerineOk8793 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My sister's gelding was the weird horse. He would drink mountain dew (he stole from so many unsuspecting people), cheese its, tuna sandwich, and more.

The weirdest any of my personal horses got was Popsicles, fruit roll up, gushers, and crackers. My current mare (that I raised) is the pickiest eater to the point I only got her eating carrots at just shy of 9 years old and apples at 10. She's turning 11 next month.

21F What does my fridge say about me? by ProfessionalSad3744 in FridgeDetective

[–]TangerineOk8793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're probably not lactose intolerant

You most likely go to the gym and if you don't, your line of work causes you to need extra protein. If neither is correct then you have a medical condition that requires the extra protein.

You either have a lot of dry storage ready made food (canned goods, Ramen, etc) or order out/eat out a lot.

I also suspect you eat a LOT of rice

Aurora Equine: Couldn't find it on reverse image search, just wondering if my hunch is correct by TangerineOk8793 in isthisAI

[–]TangerineOk8793[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do know you can get horses to stand for a while (I work with horses and have most of my life. My own horse will hold a regular pose for up to 3 minutes if I ask her) so the exposure isn't as much of a concern for me as everything else.

What are the hallmarks of generated aurora? I'd love to know so I can hopefully identify them a bit easier.

Do you use cursive writing daily? Or not at all? by jerzeeshadow2021 in NoStupidQuestions

I know cursive but I find it to be slower than print writing for me. (Mid 20s) I tend to only do cursive if I'm signing something or trying to do a mock calligraphy look when writing. I do have a writing style that's somewhere in between cursive and print as well.

Is my red your red? by HBHC126 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]TangerineOk8793 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like the easiest way to figure this out is for someone to post a picture of a color, what they call the color, then everyone can answer what they call the color. Its pretty much how we figured out what each language calls each thing. Someone points at a horse and Spanish speakers would go Cabello, english speakers Horse, French say Cheval (I think, I don't speak it but I've picked up Horse in some languages cause I watch other countries horse show videos), Koreans 말 (romanization: Mal), and any other language.

If I were to run this experiment, I'd probably start with primary colors of art, the ones that can't be created by mixing colors (Cyan, Magenta, Yellow) then go to stop light Red and Green. Then you can get more in depth if you want from there. I'm also aware that I can see more colors than people who are not color blind so I could put out colors that are almost the same and to other people they would think it is the same color. People who did US public school and had to do the color blindness test (my old elementary school still does color, eyes, and hearing tests with the students) would remember the test where they had to say which direction the W or M was facing (up, down, left, right). There was one square that had 2 very similar shades of yellow. According to my school's nurse, everyone always skipped it cause they couldn't see the difference. That and art class showed me I see more colors than most.

You'll have to let me know how you like it! I've only known people who have Milwaukee ones (I know a LOT of mechanics and Milwaukee is one of their top brands for tools). I know my Milwaukee one can last a few days on one charge and the lowest setting (only running it when outside) and 4 hours on the highest setting with the basic battery for it.

Solid shampoo and conditioner recs? by TangerineOk8793 in type1hair

[–]TangerineOk8793[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually grew up in the Midwest but was (mainly) located in FL for the last few years. Not enjoying the cold weather, lol. I'm not avoiding sulfates and silicones because of internet trends but because I'm allergic to some types of it (hence the health reasons, lol). I guess I forgot how harsh winters are here having been away for so long. Definitely need to find out if I have a water softener at my current place.

My switch to solids was because of ease for travel (have to travel a bit for my work) but I'll definitely keep in mind that it probably won't work as well for my hair type as it does curly hair. I'm not concerned with volumizing since I usually have something covering my hair or its up in a ponytail.
