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 …

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."

Jay asked me, ‘horse, why do you like ebikes so much?’

I told him that sometimes I want a bike ride but not a workout

My dear old e-bike, the Green Goddess - a retrofitted Civia mixte-style frame, with cute bamboo tray, carrier and mudguards, and swept back handlebars. Stolen from this very bike stand, a couple of years ago. I’d give anything to see her again - or at least get my hindquarters back in that perfectly worn-in and well-sprung Brooks B66 saddle!

It’s definitely an option, and fills a gap in the market and the budget range, and you get a bike that looks and feels like a bike. I miss her so much!

(That said, e-bikes built as e-bikes from the get-go are also great, esp as everything’s integrated and up to spec. Horses for courses, basically!)

A similar propaganda poster from World War II with Hitler is shown in the next post. This one shows Trump riding next to the man and encouraging you to walk bike or transit today.

When you ride ALONE,
you ride with Trump!

friend: oooh you should drive there instead it's so icy a car might kill you if you bike

me: yes yes good point I prefer accidentally killing over being accidentally killed

how I pronounce ebikes when trying to sound more sophisticated

you can read all the articles and watch all the videos and become an electric bicycle person and buy the perfect ebike for you

or you can stroll into your local bike shop and they’ll set you up

or you can go to the Costco website and buy any bike that looks nice
