A donkey friend of ours has this fantastical painting by Diné artist Haskay Yahne Yah on her wall. I love everything about it. Including that the main donkey is bigger than the world’s largest horse. #asstodon

@impermanen_@zirk.us Is it smoking a joint?

I also love the deep respect in the fact that on close inspection the donkey does not have a bridle. They have a lead line that they hold in their mouth with complete autonomy and considerable determination. This is what our donkeys do when they are playing a rope game with each other: the rope is a connection, not an implement of control. This donkey is clearly a peer of the human riders and is involved in a fun game with them.

@impermanen_@zirk.us It’s the donkey equivalent of a Cadillac Escalade

@impermanen_@zirk.us another fantastic #asstodon is the one found in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schadenfreude - a lovely painting by Zamacois
