  • i think the symbolysm of a “horse” and “preforming” shouldn’t be lost on the viewer, yet it seems to be one of the most missed points in the show. Horses generally have 2 purposes, to preform and to work. and what do we do when they cant do either of those anymore? we kill them.

    Think about how bojack, his dad and secretariat all share in this delemia. they all thrive for the want to “work” to “be somthing” they all want to “write somthing”, “win a race” or “be in a famous tv show” and the moment they CANT what happens to them?

    Spoiler:>! they all die… except bojack kinda!<

    bojacks purpose is to prefor. think about the “just keep dancing” song, to him stopping meansd DEATH similar to how horses are used in todays society

    the wild horses represent the complete opposite. Bojack sees them running and realises that there might be a life outside of our social norms which makes life LIFE not a never ending dance. they represent the spirt of life without the pressure to live up to our own or other peoples standards to live life simply as it is, as a wild horse not a clydesdale pulling a cart or a show pony er… showing? they represent what he COULD be what he MIGHT have been

    sadly for hm and many others. life comes calling and keeps us from that freedom







  • Empire of the southern moon.

    I had just finished the secret history of the mongol women and the 5th sun so was looking for more none fiction history books about American Indian culture and history, this was the first that comes up when you search “native American history books” and said it had great reviews. Little did I know it was an outdated racist account about how savage native folks were for fighting for their land, and how righteous white settlers were for stealing it
