As someone who learned to ride a horse before they learned to ride a bike and who still has clocked way more hours on a horse than a bicycle (even though I mostly stopped riding ten years ago), it is sometimes difficult for me to regard a bike purely as a machine. Even after you get past the differences in stance and muscle usage between bike riding and horse riding, there are some riding habits that are difficult to break:
Signalling to the bike that you are turning by turning your head in the direction you intend to go (I have been told I also do this when driving a car)
Standing up in the saddle whenever you go over a speed bump
Counting down from three before you go over an obstacle even though your bike doesn’t have legs and therefore doesn’t have a stride
Sitting down and leaning back when you use the brakes so as not to give your bike mixed signals
Feeling discombobulated when walking or standing on the right side of your bike
Patting the head tube of your bike to reassure it that it did a good job going up that hill
So this:
Signalling to the bike that you are turning by turning your head in the direction you intend to go (I have been told I also do this when driving a car)
Is actually something you’re told about when you’re learning how to ride a motorcycle.
BUT
For what I assume are completely different reasons: a motorcycle will generally go in the direction you turn your head.
warrior cats is irredeemable media because those fuzzy cunts are decimating the local songbird population
there should be a warrior cats book where they all get rounded up by a spay and release program and this causes a crisis about the future of the clan so they start praying to starclan to make their dicks work again and et cetera. yes i am aware that this would be awful
warrior cats are already aware of neutering and they call the local vet that does it “the cutter”
ive been informed that the initiating event for this franchise’s
first series of books is the main character not wanting to lose his nuts
this is true heres the proof, its like 20 pages into the first book:
Hey gasterofficial sorry this is ableism. Clearly I see here an image of Patrick Bateman which is a character in the movie American Ps*cho. Obviously that movie paints ps*chos in a bad light. I don’t appreciate the hypocrisy here 🙁

Green characters are often hotheaded and brash, unafraid to speak their
mind. They make for excellent leaders and teachers, and tend to be most
devoted to a specific field, which they do well in. They have a lot of
confidence in themselves, and although they can’t always see themselves
positively, they are good about respecting themselves. They have a lot
of common sense but are equally likely to strategically plan something
out as to rush in on an impulse. They often have to work hard to get
others to respect them, and sometimes receive less of it when people
find out who they are. Still, they are not afraid to make others
uncomfortable by being themselves, and are unlikely to waver when
someone wants them to change against their will. They can be brash and
loud, but also very quiet and secretive. Their humor can be a bit rude,
and they don’t always display friendship and affection to the people
they care about in the most conventional ways. However, they’re quite
easygoing, witty, and fun-loving people. They don’t like when people are
flighty and prefer to work with people who don’t quit and stand their
ground. They stand out from others, both because of the way they
approach the world, and because of how skilled they tend to be at what
they do. Some people may not suspect that they are harmonious because of
their blunt nature, but they are surprisingly good and reasonable
diplomats, and can employ a lot of meaningful tact when the situation
calls for it. They may feel a sense of distance or abandonment from
their parental figures, as they often became emotionally or physically
absent sometime in their life. Green characters hate being told what to
do and put into a box, and are likely to challenge authority. They can
be hard to work with at times due to their stubbornness, but they bring a
lot to the table and tend to round out their friend groups. They need
people in their lives who respect them, care about them, and listen to
them, as well as offer them companionship without requiring them to
conform to a certain preset standard.
for the LAST TIME, i WON’T say it again, repeat after me:
the WIZARDS have a COUNCIL
the DRUIDS have an ARCHCIRCLE
the CLERICS have a PANTHEON
the WARLOCKS have a UNION
the SORCERERS have a GUILD
the BARDS have a COLLEGE
and the WITCHES have a HIGH COVEN
STOP trying to act as though all mages follow the demands of the wizards council or i am going to turn your teeth into bees about it
Paladins have an Order, both in the sense of an order of knighthood and in the sense that we will order people around.
Fuck off, cop
If you’re a half-caster, a quarter-caster, or a martial multiclasser, DNI
‘half-caster dni’ buddy you listed warlocks and bards which are basically half-casters and i’m tired of pretending they’re not
Imagine trying to claim people with access to 9th level spells are basically half-casters, I’d cast vicious mockery but you’re basically doing it for me
