In Italy we eat horses, so they are also farmed for food. I bet all the horses that end up on a slice of bread or a pizza would rather have pulled a carriage. Still they are a much less popular meat, I don't think horse farming is as bad as, say, pig farming, (for the horse I mean) because there's much less demand. "Frayed threads" (lack of better translation) of horse are pretty good with olive oil btw.

Fun fact, there are more domesticated horses now then there were at the hight of horses being used as transportation. I found this out when a reporter asked Jay Leno, an avid classic car collector, if he was upset about the CA law that makes only EVs legal to sell as new cars in CA by a certain date. He said he totally approved of the measure, and that there was nothing to worry about for classic car collectors, and citing horse ownership rates.

this is almost definitely a married to the sea comic that someone removed the watermark on. why would someone do that?

It doesn't make sense to use automobiles. Imagine having to build out paved roads everywhere and also set up stations along these roads to refuel. Just completely impractical.

"Horses Are Forever" is also the poorly received first draft of Sean Connery's final Eon-produced James Bond movie.

And they might come with their own included "truck nuts"

You can't even eat your car if it died or if you are hungry!

Hello, I am an internal combustion car. I can't go very fast unless the road is all paved, or very far unless you spend billions bringing fuel from thousand of kilometers to feed me. And if you drive me, people will think you're NOT gay!

Equestrians are now free from menial labor and can focus on their Only Horse accounts.

What are you going to do, just destroy an entire farrier industry? Think of the economy we can't build roads to other cities when we need to take care of .

Can you milk your car while breeding a new one?

Cars are just a scam made up by Big Horse to sell more horsepower without actually selling any horses

There are articles from before the automobile discussing the pollution problems with horses. Apparently horses poop, a lot.

Just wait a few years and it'll come true.

It's missing Kelly and the statue of liberty crying (tears of joy this time)

Horse sellers were apparently shaking in their boots when automobiles were invented 😆

Fuck your Subaru I've a horse outside
