I find that the best thread posts are made by the most autistic kiwis hellbent on archiving and meticulously typing out milk material - purely for the sake of sharing the entertainment with others with no expectation of a compensation. I don't think kiwifarms would be as huge as it would be today were it not for people who willingly go through the effort of writing up and archiving whatever cows interest them, at their own convenience and time - so thank you for your service, and please do post whatever you'd think will make us laugh/cry/rage/seethe
(honestly I'd really like to do that Skinwalker timeline again. I was very much Amateur Hour when I wrote it back in 2019 and I've posted a much better version in an obscure locked down corner of the internet, but I'm not sure where "redoing my old work because I'm a weird perfectionist" would fall on the kiwifarms autism spectrum.)
I don't know much about your beloved Skinwalker (I haven't read her original timeline), but I'd love to read your new one if you ever decide to post it! I think it's just the amount of autism we all have on the Farms
Service animal horse horse just threw me back to an old job of mine and a situation where an employee submitted a permit request for a service animal that ended up being a mini-horse, which we thought was some kind of joke, but nope, they were deadass serious. (HR said no)
Also saw at least one person claim their pet rabbit was an emotional support animal and then later found to have smuggled it onto their truck.
Oh, and another guy tried to pass their iguana off as one.
There was an autist in Canada who claimed his rabbit was a fully trained autism service animal. He'd push it around in a little stroller and people who saw it said it reeked of urine and had urine burns on its paws. He had several other rabbits - service or otherwise - that died from preventable illness, neglect, and lack of proper veterinary care. This one did not fare better and for a while he had service rats instead but the rats all died.
He's back to a rabbit as of recently. Gotta love a service animal that can drop dead from stress at any moment.

Shit like this pisses me off, because there are certain animals that cannot and should not be used in both service and emotional support capacities, rabbits being one of them.
HR confided to me once (during the mini-horse saga) that they're well aware people abuse the system to try and bring whatever animals they want onboard their trucks and are frustrated there's no regulations/officially sanctioned system for such a thing. I can guarantee if there were hard regulations from the ADA on service animals, you'd probably get a loud caterwauling from the munchies and a "fuck yeah" from the people who have a legitimate need for them, as it's the munchies who've thoroughly wrecked the reputation and established stigma regarding service animals.
Hell, if you wanna piss off a munchie with a "service animal", go join an HR department: they can ask a lot more questions *and* ask for a doctor's note as opposed to the standard one ("Is it trained to perform a medically necessary task") low-level employees are allowed to ask when confronted with such a request.
Emotional support animals are a different thing altogether, that's meant more for housing (i.e. a low-income/subsidized apartment complex that wouldn't normally allow pets would legally have to allow an emotional support animal per Fair Housing Agreement) than any sort of medical purpose.

Sometimes "emotional support animal" and "service animal" are used interchangeably but they are not at all the same thing. The ADA does not recognize emotional support animals.
I got my cat registered as an ESA because I didn't want to pay $30/month in pet rent because that's fucking ridiculous. All you have to do is say you have depression and your pet helps you with your depression and that fully meets the qualifications for an ESA. In that way bunnies, guinea pigs, etc could all be emotional support animals.
But if I were to try to bring my cat to a restaurant the restaurant would be within its legal right to tell me to gtfo. Technically anyone with a service animal is supposed to have paper work to verify that their animal is in fact a recognized service animal at the ready when asked for proof.
Nah. She does this all the time. It's part of her BPD cycle. She was still participating in a munchie archive group I'm a member not long ago and I have a strong suspicion she low key contributes to this thread although no proof or idea which account is hers. I just don't think she's capable of ignoring a big public space where she can contribute and no one knows it's her.

Your post was all correct until this part.
There is no body that recognizes or certifies service animals. There's no paperwork or ID or anything to say a service animal is a service animal or trained in anything.
All service animals must be trained to perform a task, but nothing stops the owner from doing the training, and they can just, you know, decide that it happened. So there's no real barrier there. And you cannot ask for a demonstration.
The only big things is that a service animal's only task can't be "comfort/it's just my pet lol" or "protection/it's a bite dog lol." But psych tasks are allowed, so even something as stupid as "anxiety relief" is a valid task.
The magic words, at least in my life experience, is "reasonable accommodation."
Imagine if someone has a colostomy bag. That's fine. And if they smell a little weird sometimes, that's fine too. But if they are actively leaking shit all over your floor everywhere, that's not fine and you can tell them to gtfo because it's a hygiene issue. You could say, you can order online, or on the phone and we can bring your order out to you, but you cannot be in the store so long as that's going on.
Horses, as discussed, cannot be potty-trained like dogs, so this would be the automatic response for me. They also cannot be trained to not graze on shit, so the second you had evidence of the horse putting something in its mouth, that's both unhygienic and perhaps property damage, so, no horse in the building. Once you have something documentable.
In the homeless shelter we had multiple people try to claim pitbulls as service dogs. Yes always pitbulls. It was communal sleeping with lots of bunk beds in one room. First off, since it wasn't a private living situation, the dog would have to stay with the owner 24/7, could never be left alone in the shelter or we would automatically call animal control for it to be removed. This alone deterred quite a few people. Second, to have a pitbull it needs room to lay down, and it can't lay in the aisles between beds because that's a fire hazard. So we only had one bed with enough room to accommodate a dog. And wouldn't you know! It was full.
Also several people would get caught by saying, "It's a service dog because it's a protection/guard dog." That's like, the one thing it legally can't be dummy.
People would bring ESA letters all the time to "prove it's a service animal" and they would get soooo mad when I would say they were not the same thing.
We still had to allow the people with pitbulls to eat meals inside, but almost universally they would bark or growl at people, and at the first documentable sign of aggression like that, we'd say oops sorry you can't be inside with the dog. We would again offer to just bring their meal to the door and they could have it there, but almost always the person would get so pissed off we'd never see them again.
We had a good HR person because desperate poor people are extremely eager to find some wrongdoing they can sue over. For instance if we said, "No I won't let a pitbull be a service dog and we don't recognize service dogs" they could probably try something. But "We are unable to accommodate a service animal due to limited floor space in a shared dormitory, and provided alternative accommodations to the best of our capacity" is a lot better.
From experience, at least in my area, the cops are pretty chill when they come out because you've kicked someone's service pitbull out. They always ask if the person can just be served outside instead.
There's a few little stores in a historic area that don't have an accessible entrance, and they all seem to have signs that say "we can bring your order outside/provide assistance shopping" with a number to call.
Just document shit and always use the magic words "how can I accommodate you." A LOT of these storeowners are probably too scared or don't know what they're allowed to do, but the world would be a better place if munchies stopped thinking they could get away with outrageous behavior by just saying "ADA! Service animal! I can do whatever I want!"
Abrea and Flirty, part 3. In part 2, Abrea got “misdiagnosed” with a certain three-letter acronym after throwing a classic suicide tantrum and revealed she actually isn’t allergic to dogs at all and will be getting a service dog but still needs Flirty for reasons she can’t articulate. She realized that claiming she needs the horse for mobility sounds extremely fat, but claiming she needs it for only psych tasks makes people think it’s an ESA and has thus been desperately trying to legitimize anxiety horses by engaging with the media. We concluded with the grand stunt of taking Flirty on a flight so that Inside Edition could film a short segment about the DOT mandating access to service minis on commercial fights, which backfired spectacularly as people across the globe are now laughing at her antics. “How could it possibly get more humiliating?” I hear you ask. (Part 1)
She couldn’t even grocery shop before she got Flirty. All those vacations, playing piano on stage, horse shows, eating at restaurants, going to comicons, and everything else she did before she had flirty must have been a figment of our imaginations.
She knows this was a real alert because Myranda's dogs also alerted. Why do I feel like food was definitely involved?
Sampson is now named Samwise and lives with Abrea full time. He's a rescue dog so they don't really know what his mix is.
Prong collar. Of course. She has absolutely no experience in dog training since she’s been claiming she’s allergic her entire life and case in point: this prong is right at his throat. If if engages dude’s gonna end up like Thistle the poodle. If you’re going to use it at least learn how to do it in the least harmful way.
Abrea starts EMDR with her horsie.
OH GOOD, Sam is “fixated” on other dogs and Abrea has no idea how to deal with this. Her only dog trainer friends are Jadeynn who just pulled a “he’s your problem now” and Myranda whose dog went so insane from her abusive training that it was attacking program trained guide dogs and failed out of reactive dog class. No problem, surely they can solve it if they put their minds together! So I will just spoil it a little now. Sam is quite possibly the single most miserable animal we have ever encountered on this thread. These aren’t bad angles she’s catching him at. This dog wants to end it all and we’ll see why soon.
Ayyy attention-seeking zoo trip yields an accidental photo of the_service_printz aka “Scout,” the elusive FTM that lives with Myranda for a while and has a badly bred GSD named Caspian. That’s her in the background with Caspian on the stump. Scout doesn’t post selfies or get in any of the group pics and so she managed to avoid having any photos of herself appear on this thread when I dumped her insta archive, but there she be. Jadeynn is also there with a terrified looking Löfte and Myranda with an equally freaked out Saoirse.
Abrea works Sam “naked” because she’s too lazy to finish grooming her pony or to order Sam a vest that fits and of course, leaving home without an animal is out of the question.
Uh oh, Flirty has impaction colic, a potentially life threatening gastrointestinal problem. The horse that couldn’t hold her bowels and had to shit in a bucket in Abrea’s room now can’t shit at all and might die from it. They pipe oil into her.
It doesn’t work.
Then it does and someone pays the whole bill because Abrea’s too poor from not working. What an emotional rollercoaster.
She gives Flirty a day off which means Sam has to take his pet hippopotamus out for groceries. The vest he’s wearing is the one Jadeynn used for him. The patch says “I may not look disabled but I don’t look like a lesbian either.” Welp. Guess it’s time to figure out who this Jadeynn person is and why she gave Abrea a service dog.
Jadeynn’s account (formerly sampson_the_sdit/sampson_the_sd/life.saving.lofte, now life.saving.doggos) starts in October 2018 with a picture of a cute dog named Sampson.
Who absolutely fucking hates his life.
Yeah. Thats Jadeynn. I don’t know what you were expecting, but I hope it was this. She’s 18 and in her first semester of college. She lives in a dorm.
He’s a psychiatric service dog in training. If you can’t tell this dog is fucking miserable, I don’t know what to tell you except “please never get a dog”
He’s a year and a half old.
No, retard, you’ve brought a scared dog into a loud place and he’s looking to YOU to comfort HIM
I really hate this kid. The account is basically endless pictures of this dog being miserable over everything going on around him.
Jadeynn claims her home life is terrible and she’s much happier living in the dorms. When she’s home she complains about how toxic and bad it is. She’s constantly begging people to let her couch surf during the holidays and summer recess.
I really need you to burn this image of her into your mind as we proceed because I feel it really enhances everything if you remember this humanoid cane toad is the one doing all this.
Back at school. Sampson is not doing well, actually. He is shutting down because of stress.
Rainbow flag she hasn’t even bothered to press the creases out of, classic.
She officially marks him as trained instead of in training because he learned “DOT”. She means DPT aka the dog lays on her when she tells him to and this calms down her mentulz. She plans to teach him other psychiatric tasks in the future. Place your bets!
I’m not cherry picking. Not one of the photos on her account shows a happy or relaxed dog. He is always stressed to the tits.
Gib.
Lol yeah imagine that, someone who doesn’t need it using the cripple crapper. What kind of monster would do that?
She only got the dog right before the account was made, weeks after she moved out of her “toxic” home and into the dorms, and he was already an adult.
This dog wants to end his fucking life.
So she brings it on stage while she performs. Don’t worry, getting attention is the only thing that matters and the five times he tried to climb in her lap was just deep pressure therapy to calm her anxiety.
Tons of posts about doctor appointments but she never says for what or if anything comes of them.
Her “housemates” don’t approve of her having a service dog. She means her mom and stepdad who still let her stay with them whenever school’s out.
UNPOPULAR OPINION IF YOUR DOG NEEDS A PRONG OR E-COLLAR TO BEHAVE IT’S NOT A SERVICE DOG AND YOU SUCK AT THIS.
She knows the prong is in the wrong spot and is told this over and over again but oh well. It doesn’t fit right so what can you do? IDK maybe not use it?
Just further proof that this dog’s “DPT” is him begging for comfort from her because he’s scared shitless.
Ah yes, another one who went right to a service dog before trying anything else. Months after the fact she’s getting a beta blocker or something for her anxiety.
Sensory overload.
Please revolve your life entirely around me because I have a dog and that makes me special.
Here’s Myranda!
And Abrea, right on time.
Aww this is gonna age well, I can feel it.
Jadeynn uses her “disabilities” to get out of pretty much everything. She skips class, leaves early, spends her work shifts being totally useless, and nothing affects her life all because the magic word. It’s like trans teflon.
Sam just wants to be out of the room. He’s not guiding you, he’s getting himself the hell out of there.
Oh yay it’s that meetup photo where every animal looks like it should be on suicide watch and the humans stand around grinning like this is a huge accomplishment.
Hahahaahah this miserable cunt has the audacity to complain that someone else’s dog isn’t a real service dog.
Sadly for her but happily for him, the new job won’t let her bring her dog.
The prong is tearing the poor dog’s hair out.
Too bad little fucker, momma can’t pass you off as a real service dog without it.
On a scale of one to Habsburg, how closely related do your parents have to be for you to turn out looking like this?
Isn’t it funny that the most relaxed we’ve seen him is after she gets the job he can’t go to and he gets to sleep in her dorm and look out the window all day?
This dog should never ever be off lead anywhere outside of its own home.
And the patch. Sweetie, if I saw you on the street, even without the patch, I’d assume you were either a dyke or a not-like-other-girls trying super hard to signal that you were one for attention. #autism #ptsd
The he/him button on the back giving mixed signals. Maybe that’s the dog’s pronouns.
Man Sampson probably loved 14 consecutive hours with you not screeching at him.
She hangs out with Myranda all the time. Sampson still looks like he’s trying to disappear.
She needs the dog to let her know she’s scratching her leg, which he does sometimes if he’s paying attention and not too distracted by his terrifying surroundings.
Three weeks in her awful toxic home followed by turning poor Sam into even more of a crackerjack by making him go to marching band practice with her.
(Her awful toxic home where her stepfather gives her a free tattoo. Always love the catty linework comments lol)
The dog’s patch says she has selective mutism.
The first time this dog actually looks happy is when she announces she’s retiring him gradually and needs a new SD prospect to torture. Gib now and deeply.
Immediate gratification! She found a breeder that had a puppy available in a few weeks. For now she will have both dogs in the dorm.
People still telling her the prong doesn’t fit. Unfortunately as we’ve seen with abrea, it’s still being used and still doesn’t fit.
The dog that never wanted to work totally and completely doesn’t want to work now.
She had to go back to her home, it’s a terrible place for her to be because they tell her things like “you don’t need a service dog”
She’s riding Abrea’s horse. Once again, I don’t know what the loadbearing capacity of this horse is but I am almost certain it is less than one Jadeynn.
Horse looks like he’s being led to slaughter and he know whose dinner he’s gonna be.
Sampson’s behavior is getting even worse as she is a complete idiot who keeps traumatizing him anew every day.
Löfte arrives.
Abrea takes Sam for the night while Löfte settles in. When Sam is introduced to the puppy, he promptly pisses on her. She’s already planning to bring the puppy to the zoo.
The puppy was petrified of the giant frog-woman and hid under the bed for the entire first night she was home. Myranda had to walk Jadeynn through it.
Of course Sampson still doesn’t get a break. How will she have a service dog off leash in marching band for maximum attention if he isn’t there? (I do not believe he actually works off leash with the band at all. I think he’s too spooky for that, even with what looks like an e-collar on him now)
She borrows Myranda’s stroller to start taking the puppy places. She can only go 30 minutes out of her kennel before she has an accident.
Ahhhhh the truth. Sam hates her. He doesn’t listen. Even his one and only “task” – essentially snuggling - she has to ask him to do over and over and he still refuses. He doesn’t independently come to her for comfort because all she does is hurt him. This time she’s going to do everything different.
Too bad she still needs attention way too bad to just let the poor boy rest. He has to go to zoo again because all her idiot friends have service dogs except the one that has a horse instead.
She announces Abrea will be taking Sampson and might keep working him after just saying he doesn’t work.
So Abrea just told us that Jadeynn needed a bigger dog for mobility but Jadeynn isn’t claiming any mobility issues. Just tism, anxiety, and PTSD. She says there’s many reasons Abrea’s taking Sampson and they’re none of your business and she won’t tell you unless you DM her and she wants you to know.
He’s still being traumatized, this time at an ER because she bonked her head.
It’s the service akita!
Yeah this dog was always terrified and never okay. He will never be okay. “Sampson’s issues haven’t been public knowledge and it won’t be.” Cute! False, but cute!
Lol something tells me you don’t need more glucose in your body.
Lmao what? Just starting to bond? New puppies bond to their person overnight. what the fuck is this toad doing?
And Sampson goes to live with Abrea. We’ll check back in with Jadeynn soon.
Back to Abrea, since the criticism over the emotional support service horse and the dog allergy and all her other stunts keeps flying she does the BPD suicide tantrum thing again and books herself a 72 hour stay at the Hotel d’ Grippy Sock.
Memories! Flirty was first posted to the thread right around this time. I have such a fond memory of clicking onto her profile and seeing her say she needed to stay with Myranda a while to transition home from three days of abusing crisis intervention services as if she’d been institutionalized for years and no longer understood how to live independently. Even moer than “mobility horse for plantar fasciitis” this post tickled my funny bone to the extreme
Where’s your neck lol.
Flirty paws Abrea which is a for real dissociation alert. She leaves the mall just in time.
How can something this cute be this filthy? (to be fair to my horse people, dogs are also fucking filthy and I love them.)
The horse that has lived in a house with stairs for two years gets confused and frightened when it's a different set of stairs to the one she's used to and refuses to walk down them. Yeah sure she's no different than a guide dog.
Sam is still working through his dog issues.
Just when Abrea thinks it’s safe and the airplane backlash is over, Trevor fucking Noah does a bit about her on the Daily Show. After playing part of the Inside Edition clip he quipped, “how come the more advanced America gets, the more it looks like a third-world country?” and compares her to Pajeets bringing goats on the bus, then laughs about how passengers on ambien must have felt seeing a horse walk on the plane. I don’t find him particularly funny but it made Abrea mad and I find that particularly funny.
No one believes this horse does anything. Even the puff piece interview she did where she was allowed to wildly exaggerate Flirty's abilities refers to her as a therapy animal and compares her to services that let you pay to pet cows in a pasture. (archive)
“I’m gonna take your picture since that’s obviously what you want” News flash helloooo this is not for attention!! I’m just trying to stay alive with my medical equipment! Taking your pet everywhere isn’t fun! Okay if it’s no fun and terrible and has so many negatives that only someone who really needs a service dog would have one, why are there so many fakers and people taking ESAs and pets to stores? You guys complain constantly about it. It can’t be both.
She shits with the door open so the horse can watch. Her roommate must really just be so thrilled with life.
She goes on a date and brings Flirty. The first place they try to go won’t let the horse in no matter how much she REEEEEEs about the ADA. Well at least this guy knows what he’s getting into.
Jadeynn takes the vest back meaning Abrea has to work Sam naked again, but don’t worry, his new gear came in.
Wouldn’t clear language be a better idea? I only know this is a hairy pooner reference because of how saturated it is in pop culture and I have no idea what the fuck parsel tongue is but my instinct would be to ask her like an actual child. And I really, really hate when they have the fuck-off patches. I know I swear like a sailor but I’m not wearing a shirt that says “leave me the fuck alone” at the grocery where someone else's kids can see it.
Sam still looks stressed and Abrea is still using the wheelchair companion seat to make sure she has an extra large area for her ass and her animal. Before it was because she was there with a horse that won't lay down so fine but a service dog should be able to downstay at your feet without needing to block a wheelchair spot.
The dog has anxiety and vomits all over the car from it. He makes a great anxiety alert and response service dog, I assure you!
This lady in the comments asks about how she can get a service horse all the time. I hopped over to her account but it’s just e-begging for veterinary care for an ancient, blind, diabetic dachshund. I’m sure the expenses of a horse will be fine though.
Ahhhh there it is, the ultimate humiliation. Abrea is basically single-handedly responsible for the DOT revising their service animal regulations. In August they said service minis had to be accommodated on commercial flights and she took her horsie for a nationally televised airplane ride. Now they’ve done an abrupt about-face saying only dogs are considered service animals and they have to be able to fit completely in the footspace of the seat you paid for. First let’s just take a look at one comment here, where assaviorswolf says it’s not fair because what happens if someone has a severe dog allergy and can’t have a service dog? This is great because all the time when there is a question about access for service dogs the “allergy excuse’ is treated like it’s nazi propaganda. For example the big debate about whether Uber drivers are required to let SDs into their personal vehicle if they are afraid of or allergic to dogs or have a religious objection (or just don’t want a dog in their car, for that matter). These girls will screech and wail that your dog allergies are not an excuse to deny them and their medical equipment access to spaces. But when one of their own cries “allergy” it’s suddenly the biggest issue and how dare you even suggest that allergies are not a legitimate reason to make others suffer for an individual’s needs.
But let’s talk about the dog part and why it’s not a big deal. We’ve seen plenty of girls fly with their dogs and get a german shepherd or a golden retriever or even a giant breed to curl up neatly in the footspace, like this is obviously just from google images but there’s plenty in the thread. It might be a tight fit for you, you might have to pay up for the extra legroom/bulkhead/business class seat, but your dog can probably fit because your dog is capable of laying down and tucking its limbs in.
Flirty can’t. She stands there taking up your space and that of the seat next to you and there’s no way to make her take up less space. She doesn’t sit, she doesn’t lay down, she’s not capable of curling up. She stands upright and staring and bangs into the seats in front of her trying to stay balanced. My guess is the dog size restriction was mostly put in there to cut off people who would say ‘but my mini horse is no bigger than a giant breed dog” with a response that if the giant dog can’t curl up to fit that space, it can’t fly either. I’m sure people also contacted the DOT over and over to inform them that horses can’t be housebroken and regardless of what Abrea and the other horse handlers say, these animals cannot hold their bowels and are liable to shit on the plane at any moment.
I gotta say I had no idea horses body hair gets long like this and fuck me if Flirty isn’t cuter n’ a basket of babies when she’s all shaggy.
Sam is so excited!!! No, Sam’s anxious as fuck. He thought he was going out for a walk and then you did this to him. But I also like the comment where someone asks how old Sam is and when he started training and Abrea lets an incorrect answer be given. We know from Jadeynn that Sam was a 1+ year old unsocialized terrified shelter mutt when she got him and his “training” was pretty much having a vest put on and being taken around campus despite his visible distress. Should we check back in with Jadeynn? I think we should.
The new dog is also anxious.
Oh wow, Jadeynn is allergic to dogs. There’s several reasons this is fun, one being the obvious ‘it was worth it’ but the other the fact that it’s like, oh look Abrea it’s almost like there was an alternative to a horse even if you did actually need a service animal, like claritin.
She’s still having to lure heel, in other words the puppy will not walk nicely unless a piece of food is held under her nose, but Jadeynn decides to do off leash anyway. When someone says a puppy who can’t heel on leash should not be off leash Jadeynn gets shitty.
Muh shugahs.
Hahaha yeah sure, kid, it’s the program dogs that are the problem. Those seeing eye dogs are a real menace to society, I tell ya.
(by the way this chronically_annoyed chick is a T1D that can’t explain why she needs a diabetic alert dog when she has a CGM, and she hangs out with CaityBird, the furry who made a terrified unspayed cocker spaniel work as a "psychiatric service dog” while she worked nights stocking shelves at Wommart and was constantly trying to figure out what differentiated her shaking ball of neuroses from an ESA)
Owner training is way better except when you don’t know how to fix undesired behaviors and don’t have the time or spoons to work with them properly. As a full time student and part time (25hr/week) worker, Jadeynn has no time for her puppy and leaves her crated in the dorm for long hours, which is why her behavior isn’t improving and they aren’t bonding.
people are very ableist because it’s obvious that an akita, a mini horse, and a puppy having a tantrum are not doing anything for their allegedly disabled handlers except draw attention.
Jadeynn is going to stay with Myranda for christmas because Myranda keeps telling people that if thy have toxic ableist parents she’ll be their new family, which is presumably how Scout the FTM ended up there. So Myranda is taking in these kids who are like, a fucking decade younger than her and she lives with a much older man (like, I think he’s 58 at this point) who she calls her dad but who isn’t actually related to her. It’s a very strange situation. Myranda has three dogs at this point: Copper the beagle who came as damaged goods, Jessabelle the extremely reactive Bluetick former “service dog,” and Saoirse the Redbone current “service dog” who is intact because Myranda intends to breed her. Into this mix we have thrown Caspian, who is also reactive because his asshat owner admits she often only sees the negative in his behavior which makes her correct him for minor mistakes with unnecessary force. And now Löfte, a greater swiss puppy whose owner has already destroyed one animal and admits she’s basically neglecting the new one.
And she’s being a giant fucking hypocrite and saying people shouldn’t drag scared dogs in public and not every dog can be a service dog. Wonder what this is about.
She has to put her account on private over some drama.
Let’s go back to Abrea. Flirty is doing her “anxiety alert” in the supermarket. She nibbles and mouths at Abrea’s hand to let her know she needs to finish shopping and leave. Consider that your horse is surrounded by food and would like to eat some of it, so she’s nibbling your mitt because that’s what you use to feed her.
One of the criticisms/questions she often gets is about what would happen if Flirty got scared and kicked. This especially became a topic during the Inside Edition piece where on one leg of the flight, Flirty was loaded in forward facing the window so that she was unable to see what was going on around her and her rear end was facing out into the aisle – people were concerned a kid might walk by and spook her or grab her tail and she’d kick out. Abrea has constantly claimed flirty would never ever kick and never has. But here Flirty gives a “sassy kick” when Abrea tries to call her back into the house and that would be head-high to a little kid who grabbed the horsie's tail. She also says she doesn’t need any exercise before working.
Sam is still a disaster.
Another date with her horse.
Lookin’ good!!
Dog expo again, hanging out with the akita’s owner, Jadeynn and another person who was friends with Myranda but not Myranda. Myranda was there with her pet Aidan, Scout, but by Scout's account they only briefly met up the akita team. She never mentions seeing the others.
Look how fucking happy this little horse is when she has space to run. You can’t tell me she is getting enough exercise walking back and forth in a 10 foot space and occasionally being dragged to a store.
The critics are back saying a horse is not a pretend dog and asking why she doesn’t just use the dog and how she keeps flirty from shitting in a restaurant.
She was supposed to take her literal dog and pony show to Comicon but it got cancelled for spooky virus. Abrea claims her basic bitch asthma makes her much more likely to die if she catches it.
I really squawk at the identifarians claiming that “the ableds” or “the cis” or whatever group have some vast systemic privilege that needs to be redirected to serve whatever group they identify into. Are you aware a lot of disabled people work, a lot of them already work from home, and therefore a lot of them weathered the pandemic better than people whose jobs could not be transitioned to WFH or whose jobs laid them off when the business dried up? In the comments people dox themselves and tell their sob stories about how they’re too disabled to work but can’t get on disability.
Fatty fall down go boom.
She first treats coof like it’s no big deal. She’s just upset she can’t get the things she wants and can’t go to comicon.
Why do you live like this, Abrea Hensley?! She starts posting a “daily dose of Flirty” pic a day because she has nothing to talk about. She has no personality outside of the horse and nothing better to do.
LMAO all these years of claiming she will LITERALLY DIE if she goes to the grocery without Flirty. Now she admits she hasn’t been working her because people crowd around the funny grocery store horsie and it’s too much of a risk with covid going around.
Which means the horse gets to spend most of her time playing in her little paddock now. It’s not much but at least she has room to move around and a peppermint flavored toy to play with and isn't being dragged to shopping malls for attention
Alright, so Abrea has once again been humiliated on a national scale, this time by the federal government. Surely it can't get any worse for her than a branch of the federal government saying you, personally, are the problem. Right? Find out in a few hours!
Not only am I wrong about the documentation, apparently you cannot ask for proof that an animal is a service animal
The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) allows for Service Animal owners to be taken at their word and you are limited to only two questions — and only if it isn’t obvious that the animal is a Service Animal. You may not demand proof that the animal has been certified, trained or licensed.
Nah. She does this all the time. It's part of her BPD cycle. She was still participating in a munchie archive group I'm a member not long ago and I have a strong suspicion she low key contributes to this thread although no proof or idea which account is hers. I just don't think she's capable of ignoring a big public space where she can contribute and no one knows it's her.
WHy are you people so obsessed with someone who hasn't done anything interesting in years? The whole point of this forum is supposed to be funny munchies who do dumb shit over and over, and then everyone moves on when they become boring. I also thought you were supposed to not "pozload my neghole" and just leave people alone, instead of going behind their backs and interfering in their personal lives. Point and laugh on the internet, whatever, but interfering the way you did is too far.
People are capable of change and moving on. Kellen is not making any posts about their health or personal life, and you people are still bringing them up as if they're the same person they were years ago. And claiming they have BPD when they've never said to have been diagnosed with it is fucking stupid. There are so many disorders out there that can mimic BPD, unless one of you is their psychologist it's impossible to know for sure. And that stupid fucking bird joke, it'd childish and nobody actually finds it funny. Maybe it would be funny if there was any element of truth to it, there just isn't though.
Grow up and focus your autistic obsession on something usefyl.
For anyone curious, the approximate maximum weight a horse should carry is 20% of their body weight and this includes all equipment worn by both horse and rider. Both girls are far too fat.
Flirty and her tormentors is a fascinating read - maddening, saddening and hilarious, all in equal measures. Looking forward to part 4.
I have a strong suspicion she low key contributes to this thread although no proof or idea which account is hers. I just don't think she's capable of ignoring a big public space where she can contribute and no one knows it's her.
The whole point of the forum is laughing at dumb shit, but it's also archival. Part of it is answering the question, "What happened to that guy who did that retarded shit? Where is he now? What ever happened to the person in that shitty tabloid article?"
If a lolcow truly has reformed and is no longer a lolcow, and especially if they were a minor when the lolcow behavior started, they can appeal to have their thread deleted and this HAS happened. The subject of the thread would, themselves (not a third party) have to contact the mods directly and request the thread deletion. Supporting evidence that you've changed and who you are will really help imo.

Skinwalker hasn't done anything interesting in years and I still bring her up all the time because she was my favorite when she was active. This thread isn't really indicative of forum culture as it's a community watch thread where we very quickly move on to new targets, but it doesn't mean we don't go back and see what our old pals are up to when they're doing something interesting. (Actually I prefer to wait until they've fizzled out to post about them because then I can tell a complete story which wouldn't fly if I was trying to post them in prospering grounds to start a new thread by forum standards.)
Sorry, what am I being accused of now? I haven't intentionally interacted with her since November 1, 2022 when she DMed me while I was pretending I didn't see her. I will keep my promise to her and not release the contents of our conversation.
I would almost guarantee I have proof that she at least claimed BPD in the past but alas, I am traveling and do not have my regular archive hard drives with me. Fortunately the behavior tells us all we need to know with this one.*
And that stupid fucking bird joke, it'd childish and nobody actually finds it funny. Maybe it would be funny if there was any element of truth to it, there just isn't though.
I am childish and I find it very funny even if there wasn't any element to truth in it. Again, I would almost gurantee I have proof that she was claiming one of her DID alters was a crow back in 2019-20.
*I also agree with the poster upthread who said that a BPD-like behavior pattern is what we're recognizing rather than the actual personality disorder, but that it's social media brainrot at its core. I've discussed with a psychfag about my theory that the pressure cooker of social media "fame" and parasocial relationships is making these girls extremely emotionally unstable and erratic. So it's not necessarily that genuine, would-exist-regardless-of-internet BPD is overrepresented in social media clowns but that social media itself is making them behave like someone with BPD, which is in turn getting them diagnosed disproportionately. I do believe a lot of them grow out of it when they get off social media but they need to actually fucking do it. Not "I'll be hiding out on my SD account and socking all over the place and then I'll come back when the dust settles" but genuinely realize that you are better off without social media in your life.
Again, only a third of the way through and I'm screaming about horse stuff again, but - weight bearing capacity... she needs a bigger horse. Like a draft or part-draft breed. I'm no feather myself, but my criteria is always "Can this horse carry a man weighing X pounds? Then it can carry a woman weighing X pounds." There is a serious weight discrimination issue with women in the sport - the running joke in equitation classes at decent shows is 'Skinniest rider wins' and it's almost always the case. I am slightly over the range for my last horse (many, many years ago) and at least 40# over the range for my first, who was smaller. But yeah, my criteria is 'can they carry a man that weight'? And that chick would be on a half-draft at the least.
I really need you to burn this image of her into your mind as we proceed because I feel it really enhances everything if you remember this humanoid cane toad is the one doing all this.
Kellen is not making any posts about their health or personal life, and you people are still bringing them up as if they're the same person they were years ago. And claiming they have BPD when they've never said to have been diagnosed with it is fucking stupid. There are so many disorders out there that can mimic BPD, unless one of you is their psychologist it's impossible to know for sure. And that stupid fucking bird joke, it'd childish and nobody actually finds it funny. Maybe it would be funny if there was any element of truth to it, there just isn't though.
Abrea Hensley and Flirty the Service Mini Horse part 4 and final. Part 3, Abrea gets her service dog and we learn he is a nervous wreck who should not ever be taken in public for his own mental health. She gets mocked on The Daily Show just days before the DOT announces horses are no longer required access on commercial flights, something that was almost definitely motivated by the backlash against her flight with Flirty. We concluded with covid, where she decided to stop working the horse because it draws too many people to her and there's too much of a risk with the virus. (1, 2)
lol pl I'm cooped up in buttfuck suburbia on business with nothing to do but laugh at internet funny time, so enjoy the fruits of my boredom.
A glimpse into the life of an animal that will die if it doesn’t eat constantly.
I guess the diet is actually sound because Flirty has lost about 40 lbs since Abrea got her and people who know horses (including people ITT) keep commenting on how fit she is for a mini.
Abrea can’t stand not having attention for having a service horse so now she’s submitting pieces about Flirty to general horse hobby publications.
That doesn’t scratch the itch so she decides she really does need her service pony at the grocery store for her anxiety and she’ll just be extra harsh with people approaching. Back to "look at my horse at the store/doctor!"
The mask accentuates the lack of neck in the best possible way. Now that the zoo is reopening Abrea is there all the time and complaining that Flirty has no table manners anymore.
Samwise the dog is still alive and according to Abrea his work skills do not decline despite that she uses him once every few months. First of all, we know his "skills" are nothing. Second, no dog is going to remain on its A-game if you don't use its skills for months. But also if this is true why not take him instead of the horse? Is it that he doesn’t give her the right kind of attention or is it some serious behavior problem that embarrasses her but she won't admit? (Also what happened to Peanut? I liked Peanut.)
When she does work him, he’s “naked.” She claims he just outgrew his vest because he was underweight when she got him from Jadeynn and Jadeynn did complain that it was hard to keep weight on him (because he was scared and off his food all the time living in the dorms). But idk, I think she’s gotten a little addicted to screeching about the constant access issues she has.
Her horse tries to eat snacks in the grocery store. Abrea has to buy junk food she doesn't want because the horse can't help but try to graze on things.
“One of those service dog vests you get on Amazon.” As opposed to one of those service dog vests you get on Etsy which make your animal a true n’ honest service horse even if all it does it follow you, try to steal food off the grocery shelves, and shit next to your bed. I guarantee that golden behaved a hell of a lot better than most of these girls’ dogs just by virtue of being a golden and unlikely to attack anyone.
Confirming that Flirty’s alerts and dissociation task are indistinguishable from her begging for food. Flirty nudges Abrea’s arm until she gets a snack.
People start asking why she even needs service animals since she seems to be doing fine and dragging a horse to walmart is making it harder for people with program-trained guide dogs to be taken seriously. Excuse you miss ma’am I checked myself in for voluntary psych holds twice last year!
Urgent care. It’s an ear infection.
Trying to milk an ear infection for sympathy.
Now the horse has a hat but she DOESN’T WANT ATTENTION.
Inside Edition interviews her again about how she’s pretty much single-handedly responsible for the DOT reversing their stance on horses. In the comments she said she always booked two seats but she doesn’t say that the other seat was occupied by the journalist she was traveling with. You know if she was flying alone she’d buy one seat and complain if the person next to her didn’t want the horse leaning on her the whole flight. I don't know if this piece ever aired.
Now the horsie has a Christmas hat but she DOESN’T WANT ATTENTION.
Abrea claims Flirty asks to go out for a potty break by stamping her feet. I have discovered over the course of writing this that mini-horses essentially very large rabbits. Prey animals, spook at everything, prone to bolting, eat hay all day, shit constantly, if they don’t eat and shit constantly they die, and they can be litter trained kind of but not really. It’s moderately interesting to me.
Pissing with the door open again. “oh gosh guys this is what life with a service horse is like!” Consider closing the door. It’s not like the horse can open it. And ew, look at all the horse detritus in the hallway. I bet that feels real great on your damp feet fresh from a shower.
I kind of love that she’s given up pretending any of this is foundational work for additional tasks. Originally she said the target training was to teach the horse how to turn on lights, wake her up from night terrors, press the handicap door button, and eventually fetch her medications. Now she’s just like “look she’ll hit her nose against my fist too!” and like yeah, of course she will. There might be a treat in that mitt.
...this is Abrea’s boyfriend. My man looks like he can’t live within 500 feet of an elementary school.
She makes a bunch of posts about a mean bully who is harassing her all across the internet. Do you want to take a guess who it is?
Why it’s our favorite bottomless barrel of BPD bullshit, Megan Stoff aka helperdognala, fresh from telling Whitney Zayas she’s happy Whitney got raped and hopes it happens to her again. I couldn’t find what she was saying to Abrea but from the comments it sounds like she said a horse can’t be happy living in a house and if you’re too heavy for a mobility dog you need to get some other mobility aid. I will amend this to say a dog is not a mobility aid, get a fucking cane you monsters.
I just don’t get it. Why not just not participate in the “community” if it’s so toxic? Having a social media account dedicated to your animal is not a necessary part of having a service dog.
Fgbordercollies is our old friend Marisa Finan-Goode, my.patronus.is.a.zebra, a hilarious munchie. She used to hang out on IFGW all the time. We had like a regular card game night on discord VC (gimme a break, it was quarantine and I was stuck in a 600 square foot apartment a thousand miles from my friends and family). One week she came in and dominated the chat to overshare about herself and patients she’d seen as a nurse, to the point where we couldn’t play our game because she wouldn’t shut the fuck up. We muted her mic and when we unmuted her to see if she’d shut up yet she and her boyfriend were having an argument and we could hear the whole thing. I think we booted her from the game and made it so she couldn’t access voice channels anymore, something like that, but she suddenly got weirdly defensive and said that it wasn’t her usual behavior and she was just drunk. She claims to be NPO and TPN fed so like… okay but how??? And she told us her boyfriend had plugged a very long extension into her J-tube and without her knowledge or consent he had pumped vodka directly into her jejunum to make her fall asleep. When people raised concerns about the ethics of putting like 8 shots of vodka into her intestine in one giant dose against her consent and why her boyfriend was trying to make her pass out, she got even more defensive and weird about it. This made someone with even more time and autism than I have dig through her accounts and find out she was a classic nurse-to-munchie pipeline who also had a cancer faking saga before settling on zebra diseases. The posts made about her are lost to the ages as far as I know. (They were on reddit/imgur and I think she successfully got them taken down for doxxXxxing.)
They change the floor in the living room and the horse is terrified by it. She stands on the stairs shaking and finally leaps down when Abrea makes her. In the comments people say a horse shouldn’t be going down stairs at all.
Going back on an old med with annoying side effects but at least this time they tell her not to waste the hospital’s time with her shit.
(It’s an antipsychotic and the side effects she hates are akasthasia and sleepiness)
She’s off work again while she adjusts to it.
Don’t horses survive in like siberian winters? Have I been lied to by nerd media that taught me horses are very cold tolerant?
Oh oh oh it’s beautiful! No doctors took her super bad one month eating disorder history seriously just because she was still fat and immediately sought treatment for it. Her lingering symptoms include that if she misses a meal she doesn’t feel good. “I don’t feel hungry most of the time which also means I don’t feel full.” hahaha sounds like she’s grazing as much as her horse is and as a result she’s never hungry (because her stomach’s never empty) but she’s never full (because she’s snacking all day on nutritionally poor carb-food instead of real meals.) Only 6% of those with eating disorders are medically diagnosed as underweight! And 100% of Anorexia nervosa diagnoses in 2007 were because a BMI under 17.5 was part of the diagnostic criteria. There’s now another category, Atypical Anorexia Nervosa, designed to catch early cases before they become critical by allowing someone to get diagnosed at a BMI above 17.5 and since the DSM was changed to include it AAN has been used by attention-seekers who skipped a few meals to claim they were dainty ana flowers. Also immediately seeking treatment for your eating disorder is a red flag given that even early in the disease anorexics will generally go to extreme lengths to avoid losing their newfound way to control something.
Horsie goes to grocery store, begs a stranger for snacks when Abrea does not deliver them. In the comments she gets lit up for not letting her horse just be a horse.
She suddenly has had much more interest in showing the horse running around and getting to exercise since the argument with Megan Stoff. So at least Megan has some utility in this world.
Sam is finally allowed to fully retire after Abrea admits he will never be okay and he’s still reactive to dogs on walks. She doesn’t have the spoons to train both Sam and Flirty so Sam gets to be a pet. And I love the “please don’t eat me” look on his face. She’s going to have to ask her boyfriend to run errands for her rather than taking the dog out if Flirty isn’t feeling well. This is the last time we see or hear of this animal. Goodbye gentle mutt.
I guess we should finish up talking about Jadeynn then.
She claims Löfte is learning heart rate alerts and will be starting blood sugar alerts. She’s about 80% accurate with heart rate.
And of course, planning heavy mobility because they all want that guide harness because it looks very official and legitimate.
Why the fuck is your heart rate going up that high from walking a mile? And lol the dog “alerts.” Gonna guess she was unsure about being that near a treadmill.
FMP = forward momentum pull. These girls claim their mental things is so scary that they need the dog to physically pull them forward because they’re too anxious or dissociated or whatever to move independently.
Still hanging out with Abrea and also she got her mobility harness in.
She goes to the ER because her heart rate is high. She’s just dehydrated. They tell her to drink water.
Walking a mile sends her heart rate up to the 150s holy shit.
She’s getting a heart monitor to see what’s going on. I think I have an idea. Also she’s lost a lot of friends lately but she’s had to cut out toxic people.
Baby has an earache. Her mom is having some kind of medical emergency but whatever, the dog is alerting and thats great!
Coof is upon us and Jade has to move back into her mother’s “toxic” home. I’m sure her many spoonie friends in the SD community will help her get out of this terrible environment.
Another one who is working a bitch in heat. She’s starting guide work because Jadeynn might get real anxious and not know where to go.
Lofte goes out on a flat collar and does fine. So why does she still need the prong if she does fine without?
She’s studying psych and The Gay in college. I had no idea that there are community colleges that have dorms.
She has undiagnosed mobility and cardiac issues due to fat and a rotator cuff tear from bowling. Claims she had a traumatic childhood and got diagnosed PTSD and hypoglycemia as a kid and that she’s been losing her hearing since birth and will likely go deaf.
The obvious bait of working a dog naked so people tell you she can’t come in and you can screech.
Lol saying GSMDs are not good service dogs because they’re stubborn and vocal but Löfte is the exception. She’s claiming she had to shop around to find a breeder that would let her take a GSMD puppy to be a service dog and then it was a struggle to find one with a good temperament, but she already told us she went with one that had a puppy available immediately when she decided she wanted one. Same exact thing Myranda said about her dogs.
My aunt died here’s a post about my dog and how I was a cunt to anyone who tried to pet my dog when they were sad.
The ADA says your dog can work off-leash only if a leash would interfere with a task it does.
My god do I ever love when they get a job the dog can’t come to and are fine for 8 hour shifts without it but then complain they will die if you distract the dog at walmart.
She’s back at college and she falls off her horse. She has to go to the ER. Nothing’s wrong.
Dear Jadeynn, out of context vocal yawns like that are often a distress call. You dog is anxious.
In september 2020, Myranda and Scout both post about Copper and how he wears a vest while socializing but he’s not a service dog. Scout tells us that Copper will be a therapy dog in the future.
Copper is a complete fucking basketcase. Myranda has posted more than once about her plans to euthanise him because of his behavior. Her roommate/adoptive father Cory has been trying to rehome him before Myranda has a chance to kill him. (For the record, she also tried to euthanise Jessabelle for embarrassing her and even booked an appointment but her roommate made her do a trial rehoming. Away from Myranda Jessabelle did fine.) We know (because Myranda told us) that Copper attacked Saoirse.
Jadeynn posts a screenshot saying Copper is aggressive and has attacked two dogs. Caspian also has reactivity issues.
Myranda responds with her side of the story: Jadeynn came over with Sampson during the past summer and due to a slip up, Copper got out of the house while Sampson was outside. Both dogs are reactive, they got in a brief fight but no one was hurt. Afterwards they went on a walk together and it was fine. Jadeynn then started claiming this single interaction irreparably fucked up Sam and she needed a new dog. Myranda paid for her to buy Löfte and Abrea volunteered to go pick the dog up with her and to take Sam off her hands. Myranda then let Jadeynn stay for the christmas week in 2019 so she didn’t have to go to her horrible toxic home. On arrival to Jadeynn’s dorm Myranda found the place was completely filthy with trash everywhere except the inside of Löfte’s kennel. Back at Myranda’s, Myranda tried to take Copper out in the yard on a leash alone but Jadeynn approached him with Löfte anyway. When Copper got his hackles up, Myranda told Jadeynn to get her dog the hell away from him. She also says that jadeynn hits Löfte so hard her hips collapsed and corrects her so harshly the dog screams in pain.
Jadeynn responds with hers: She was apprehensive of Myranda because of how she was a nasty cunt to both Cory and her dog. Myranda offered to do some training workshop with Sampson as she had no idea what she was doing. No one told her Copper was aggressive. Myranda intentionally let him out into the yard while Sam was out there. After the fight she offered to make things right if Sam was unable to work. Sam was fine for the rest of the week but once home he started to be reactive, growling and lunging at dogs. Myranda tells her that sampson is not fit to work because his lack of socialization, fear of people, and now the reactivity and offers to pay for the new dog and the gear and supplies she needed for it. In her version Myranda once again let Copper out into the yard with no leash while her dog was out there and Copper once again attacked. Jadeynn has never hurt her dog. The dog does scream from corrections but she can’t help that her dog is just super vocal and yells all the time when she’s not even hurt! Myranda yells at her dogs, hits them, drags them by the ears, pulls them to the ground, and corrects them far too harshly. Saoirse is afraid of absolutely everything. Myranda locked down her socials and disappeared for weeks after this. Ill be honest, having read both sides of this all I can think is “neither of you deserve dogs.”
Jadeynn’s been accused of a lot and she’s lost a lot of friends.
She keeps losing jobs and housing and now temporarily lives on a farm.
Before getting a large dog she would have never been able to buy juice at the grocery store because of her crippling anxiety. Performing on stage was fine though.
She’s now trying to rebrand because no one likes her.
Her dog pukes all over her in public. Good girl.
She’s finally getting the dog spayed.
Jadeynn works as a dog trainer, o no. But in the comments thejeterstory is asking about Löfte’s pain and if she’s allowed to return to work. Can you guys let the dog recover from her surgery or nah, she's just an accessory?
Her dog is sick (but still being worked!) and Jadeynn lost what remains of her support system because of vicious rumors.
She’s totally changed guys, that’s why she starts this post by letting you know she forgives you, before making excuses for why she treated everyone badly. LOL it's exactly what Kellen just did!
Next post admitting she was a massive twat to some gear brand when the issue was she's too stupid to put the harness they made on her dog correctly. once someone shows her how it goes on she apologizes
She works with retards now. She must fit right in! But seriously imagine claiming you need an autism and PTSD service dog when you’re surrounded by people who need serious support because of their real intellectual disabilities.
Dog is over two but she’s still a puppy and it’s fine that she whined at another dog because Jadeynn corrected her.
She got a new job in August and the dog wasn’t approved to come until October. Somehow she survived.
She slapped a different vest on the dog and now calls her a therapy dog and has the kids she works with play with her. Remember when distracting or petting a service dog literally murders their handler?
Shy of her third birthday Löfte is discovered to have a condition called luxating patella. Her knee cap slides in and out of place and she’s semi-retired because of it. Having had a dog that had this (a large breed, at that) it’s really not a pleasant condition for the animal.
In August she introduces us to a new dog from Löfte’s breeder and she says something about how the original puppy she was supposed to get died. So many red flags. His name is Meraki.
Of course.
Four months later she announces Meraki is being returned to the breeder. He has health problems and a bad temperament. She hasn’t updated insta since.
Oh you sweet summer child, did you really think that this meant she was going to go dogless? Nah, she just went back to working Löfte against veterinary advice.
We’re back to Abrea and back to the “allergy excuse” being terribly discriminatory.
Hello Myranda and your sad, flappy, unbrassiered titties
Lol she can never help herself can she? This issue of Horse Illustrated has an article about the time two years ago when she took her horsie on an aeroplane ride. Attention is good!
I feel like the horse is alerting to her own anxiety here.
She’s polyamorous now. She’s written about her girlfriend but I thought she meant “my friend who is female.”
Also saying she never played piano professionally because shortly after finishing her masters she had an injury that cut her career short. Would it be the narc injury of not getting into a doctoral program? (she claims it’s a painful structural abnormality in her hand. Unsure if it's the same one that gave her anorexia.) She used to teach but can’t anymore because of her health.
Her horse’s most important task is lick. Lick. Lick. Lick.
And her favorite food is mcdonalds just like Abrea.
You have an extremely powerful tiny computer that you carry with you everywhere, that you used to post this photo and have this conversation. I promise you there’s an alarm clock setting on it that’s more reliable than your animal’s “internal schedule” for when they get a cookie. (Also makes no sense since Flirty gets treats pretty much the whole time she’s awake. It’s not like a dog who knows dinner is at 7 and starts to whine at 6:45.)
She uses the horse for counterbalance when she dissociates.
This other horse lady has a large farm with other horses in Ocala, Fl. She started with australian cattle dogs she trained as SDs for PTSD and “avacado alert” by which she means she trained the dog to sniff food and alert her if there’s avocado in it. How often do you accidentally eat something with avocado in it, seriously? She’s functionally illiterate so it’s hard to get a real grasp on her alleged issue and why she also needed a horse (other than she’s a weird horse girl who wanted to bring her horse everywhere), but I guess it’s mobility for an unspecified autoimmune disease.
She also took her horsie on a plane and was probably partially responsible for why the DOT abruptly changed its mind.
Another one who feeds her horse McGunt’s fries.
This one takes her horse to the amusement park! The dog in this photo is her girlfriend’s service dog because of course both of them are spoonies.
On that note Abrea would like to take Flirty to disney world.
OH BOY claiming she was raised in a Fundie cult and her family boycotted Disney! She’s never mentioned having even a slightly religious upbringing let alone being raised in a cult.
I thought this was Abrea in a wig and costume and I am so disappointed.
“they’re not a fashion accessory or a cool lifestyle.” then stop making them out to be exactly that.
Amongst the tasks Abrea swore Flirty would learn that she has either decided she does not need or cannot figure out the logistics of training: guidework and dpt. Her plantar fasciitis healed though.
She’s still not back at work from her muh mentuls break and paypal is refusing to pay short term disability this time.
“willingly jumping over it a few times.” So she often shows that she needs to give flirty a little tug on the head halter to get her walking or into the car or whatever she’s trying to get the animal to do and the bare minimum of the horse not having to be outright forced or refusing entirely is praised. Nothing about what I have learned of horse behavior while writing this has convinced me they are really okay as service animals.
She, Myranda, and the akita lady stage a sit-in at some restaurant where some other lady was told her dog wasn’t allowed in.
Yes but if you find one “task” your pet dog does to mitigate one “disability” you have then presto, Fido is a service dog as long as he’s reasonably under your control! All you have to do is say something like “I dissociate and my horse licking my hand keeps me grounded (even though it’s just her browsing for snacks you hand her the entire time she’s working because every cell in her little horsey body is telling her she needs to eat constantly or she will die”).
Or “my horse standing in front of me prevents people from getting too close and triggering my anxiety (but also admitting the horse is a giant attention magnet that draws a crowd everywhere you go therefore this is a solution to the problem she’s also causing)”
I do not like this obese woman leaning her weight on this little horse. (and she admits Flirty didn’t do what she was supposed to do anyway so how is this a task? All it’s doing is showing off that target touch once again).
Isn’t it wonderful that she overcame her anorexia? I especially like the shoulder leash that has to ride high over her flappies instead of across her chest like it’s s’poseda.
But when Jessabelle barked it was just a “vocal alert”
shes been out of work since March because it makes her all suicidey. Yeah I hate my job too kiddo. That’s why I waste my employer’s time doing this. Alas, this loses some of its stick-it-to-the-man factor when you’re self-employed.
Myranda, Abrea, and Myranda’s friend Scout with the GSD all go to comicon. Flirty requires a folding ball pit (?) for her shitting shack and makes a mess of the hotel.
Flirty gets hit by a wheelchair. Oh man I can’t tell if it’s funnier if this was some other munchie or if it was an actual disabled person.
“Attending cons is something I never thought I’d do again.’ YAY!!! Let’s talk about her PTSD story finally!
She claims there were several things that set off her PTSD. The initial incident was she was in an active shooter situation in 2010. It really happened and I’m choosing to believe her when she says she was present for it: a University of Texas-Austin student opened fire on campus. From what witnesses say, he fired at random and wasn’t aiming at anyone. He then went to the sixth floor of the library and painted the stacks with his grey matter. No other injuries or fatalities. She was visiting to take piano lessons in preparation for her doctoral auditions and so she was not plugged into the campus text message alerts nor did she have a smart phone. The entire incident lasted 15 minutes but she stayed huddled in a dark practice room for hours unaware of what was happening and praying he didn’t come in the building. The weirdest part is that she claimed when she found out he’d blown his brains out her response was to think of her “anorexia” and how “suicidal’ she was because of it and weep for this man who had to be in so much pain to terrorize a bunch of innocent people with an assault rifle. I understand trauma responses are not rational but that just… I don’t know, it comes off either very false or very cluster B depending on how you look at it. She might have gotten a touch of the real PTSD from it but says this just made her startle easily from things like fireworks and she didn’t feel it affected her much long-term. Then there was a second event three years later that she never elaborated on which was what made her unable to function. So if the shooting was September 2010 then let’s be generous and say the second event happened sometime before mid-2014. She got Flirty in mid-2017. During that time she went. . .
to toronto!
To Chicago!
To dinner at japanese steakhouses!
To an all-inclusive resort in Jamaica!
To DC where she saw a symphony, a play, and the Smithsonian!
To a LOTR themed pub!
To the opera!
To comicons!
To baseball games!
To pride parades!
To get an anorexia tattoo!
To a British festival lol why is this a thing!
To another all-inclusive in Jamaica!
To a zombie crawl bachelorette party!
To a wedding!
To have drinks with her friends!
To a week of training for work! This is the trip where she was suddenly suffering from mentuls and needed to curl up in a blankie the whole time. I wasn’t really paying attention when I archived her personal so I assumed it was another vacation but LOL NOPE the trip she caught the sads on was work-related and not fun.
To a Def Leppard concert!
To a Halloween party!
To the opera again! Two days later was her first post about PTSD.
To the company holiday party! Three months later she made her cat an ESA so she could take it to the grocery store illegally and 3 months after that she got the emotional support horse.
The Flirtymobile catches on fire on the road. It’s not worth fixing and she needs a new car now.
She buys a station wagon so Flirty can stand in the hatch with the rear seats folded down.
She’s finally gotten her short term disability approved and some back pay, which is how she buys the new car, but then they tell her she exhausted her benefits two months ago and that was all she was getting. Gib because I’m bad with money and do not like working.
She sure has a lot of money and tolerance for crowds when there’s something fun to do.
But she needs to try ketamine and TMS for her sads that prevent her from working.
And she has to flake on someones wedding.
But not on a trip to Myranda’s to go hiking
Or to the zoo, again.
She has to go off her effexor to start a new drug and nothing is fun anymore.
Not too sick or depressed to hang out in Myranda’s hoarder hovel full of baying coonhound puppies!
People question the horse and Abrea has a panic attack. You’d think after so many years they’d get used to being confronted.
Shes switching to a newer serotonin modulator drug called Viibryd.
She’s out of hope and suicidal.
She’s sold her big horse Cadenza. Is there even a horse she could ride now? Maybe one of those Budweiser ones.
I guess her meds are working. Zoo!
And helping myranda torture one of Saoirse’s pups.
Another zoo trip.
Look at this super real anxiety alert where Abrea holds out her hand palm side out in a gesture she’s already shown us that she uses for targeting and Flirty noses and licks at it. Flirty totally nudged her hand into that position first but Abrea decided not to film that part.
Back to the dog expo.
And the zoo.
And Comicon again!
And another ren faire.
Someone asks the obvious question of how an animal that brings so much attention helps manage anxiety. “Oh uhhhhhhhhhhhhh the attention is on my horse not me so it’s fine.” But… you complain about the attention being on your horse and how you’re so tired of people screaming about there being a pony in the store or being angry it’s there or trying to pet it.
oh well. Farm market!
5 years together and the fucker still only knows a basic target touch command and how to walk nicely on a leash, which she didn’t even teach it.
At this point her posts are a loop. Here’s my horse’s hoof trimming after the farrier was here. Here’s my horse getting her teeth floated. Here’s my horse standing in a grocery aisle. Here’s my horse before my therapy appointment. I had to refresh the browser tab while writing and it took me so long to find the right spot to jump back in because it was like a fucking Flintstones background of identical horse pics with identical captions. Every once in a while there's drama. She gets accused of being behind some service dog bully page, I do not care but the person running it also sounds like a real fascinating human.
Happy birthday to the law I abuse to take my horsie everywhere for attention.
She finally caught the coof after two years of going to crowded places with no issue.
Again how do you differentiate this from begging for food in a restaurant? Another med change and pursuing TMS now. Basically she’s trying her damnedest to fail everything so she can get permanent disability.
Service. Pug. What does it to? Overheat to death to alert you to your anxiety that it might overheat to death?
Lolllll her boyfriend broke up with her and now she has nowhere to live. I guess my child molestin' man was tired of supporting a woman with no intention to work ever again and her very expensive animal. She has one place that is willing to let her go there but she has to get rid of her cat. Shes been crashing with friends for weeks.
Insurance says no to the TMS.
Whoops that possible housing didn’t work out, probably because they too were unprepared for the reality of a horse shitting and dragging hay all over the house. She moves back in with mom.
It's a permanent move.
After years of living in a two story house the horse still can’t navigate stairs well.
Hey mom I hope you don’t mind my horse is going to be shitting in my room and dragging shavings all over the house. Those arent even the special odor reducing shavings. Those are cheap substandard shavings.
She posts a video of her horse eating gummy bears that goes viral. Tons of people chime in to say the horse really should not be eating candy and neither should the human. Abrea and her weird fanclub go mental.
Vraylar (cariprazine) is an atypical psychotic but also lol that this “task” is teaching her that if she stands by the bed and makes noise she gets a high-value treat. LMAO yes that is what you want, to teach your animal to stand by your bed while you sleep and YELL until you give it something extra special to eat.
She’s too fat for the treat bag. Remember that her legs are disproportionately thin compared to the rest of her.
She gets a bunch new followers from the viral vid.
Service cats, lizards, rats, and birds. Who the fuck are these people lmao what task could a goddamned lizard possibly provide?
Remember when she was putting trigger warnings for mentions of cats because some retard said she was triggered by them? Or when Myranda said you had to trigger warning if you used rap music? Or when you brought your horse everywhere because you were afraid of people getting too close to you? You guys are all about society catering to your individual fears until it has a negative impact on what you want to do. On paper I agree, your individual fear of a service dog does not trump the service dog handler's right to enter a space.
Yeah lol the horse has no idea what she’s doing. She just knows she makes a noise at some point in time and gets a cookie shoved in her face.
Flirty is 10 and way better than any service dog. Why she can… wait… uhm she can… nuzzle my hand looking for food in various environments and stand somewhat still in a restaurant.
You must be disabled but you don’t need a diagnosis of a disability because that’s ableist. Lmao.
Another “alert’ where Abrea is clearly holding out her hand for the horse to nose at. Yeah nothing to see here, Abrea just naturally holds her hand in the “touch” position when she’s anxious. What’s the opposite of a Clever Hans? A Profoundly Intellectually Delayed Hans?
At another con tho, no issues there.
Flirty gets sick after her vaccine appointment. A sick horse is a horse that doesn’t eat is a dead horse, so she has to have an emergency visit.
And the horse chiro is back. Thank god the first bank of Mom is still open for business.
She goes to another Comicon and meets the Aidan who took one of Myranda’s dogs who plays IRL munchie olympics as is tradition.
Magical horse psychiatrist.
And we’re back to the dog expo.
And the zoo. I envy this woman’s energy and her ability to deal with crowds.
getting some wagie in trouble because she pet the horsie.
She’s getting a new fence put up in mom’s yard to give flirty more privacy, and I guess moms footing the bill for that too since there's been no indication Abrea has gone back to work.
Have none of these women heard of bras? Remember how flat chested she was when she was thinner? It’s kind of impressive that she managed to end up with sagging tits when she wasn’t working with anything to begin with
Still trying to get the grocery store employee fired because she might distract Flirty who might not see Abrea holding her hand out to pretend she needs to be brought back from her dissociation and then Abrea might buy cookies by accident.
Abrea has poopy cramps and needs a mobility horse to get back to the car.
She goes to a disability expo.
Then goes to Michigan and hangs out with another person who has a service horse.
Well iffin it isn’t the actual reason the ADA was amended to include service horses! Muslims can’t have guide dogs because Allah says puppydogs are haram, another reason islam is the worst religion. The blind lady in the hijab has an apparently program-trained guide horse instead of a dog. I don't know if she's one of them, but there were articles a few years back about how guide horses were helping Muslim women who had been blinded in acid attacks which I actually thought was really cool. This was one of the extremely limited scenarios they were anticipating when the law was adjusted because as we have seen, service horses are very high maintenance. No one expected people to opt for a horse when dogs are a lot less finicky and much easier to work with. They were not anticipating the weird horse girl social media attention factor. Now this poor blind woman is going to forever have to deal with being lumped in with the emotional support pony people because Abrea became the hilarious fat face of service mini horses with her airline stunt.
All that travel and commotion wears Flirty out and she has colic again. She’s kept overnight at the ER vet.
Despite treatment, the horsie cannot make doodoo. They give her pain meds, mineral oil, IV fluids, calcium bicarb, a diet of soaked grain, but she lets out only tiny dry poos.
She’s taken to an intensive equine hospital in Iowa where she’s in ICU with an NG tube, an IV in her neck, and a tube up her butt. It’s so stressful for Flirty when she’s not around Abrea. I mean.. yeah animals are attached to their person but it’s probably a lot more stressful to be colicing and in a weird environment and have tubes in every hole.
They give her rectal fluids until she poops.
somehow Abrea has managed to not die from suicide despite having to live an agonizing seven days without her service horse going to the store with her. Maybe it’s because she could still get attention by updating daily about her.
she's going home!
Nope, she reacts badly to a sedative and almost dies again.
She’s home!
“We don’t know why horses colic. Sometimes it’s just a change in weather.” Wow this animal seems very sensitive to small changes in its daily routine. Perhaps you should take her to Disney World to celebrate that she survived the stress of going to home depot with other calm horses.
Gib so much because my horse almost died of being full of shit.
Abrea goes to therapy without her horse. She takes her anxiety medication instead. What a concept.
Two weeks after the colic started, she decides it’s time to start dragging her around again.
And right back to comicon.
And Abrea’s right back to proving this animal provides no net benefit to her mental health. She starts another medicine because she’s having daily nightmares since the horse was sick.
Flirty alerts to a random dizzy spell even though Abrea never gets them and Flirty isn’t trained for them. Come on Abrea, you know you wanna slide into POTS faking.
Abrea now has to bribe the horse to put her gear on. I think this is the equine equivalent of threatening to put in your two weeks notice.
And that's Abrea Hensley, her slow slide into total life failure, and her hilarious little service horsie who just wants another cookie and a bigger space to run around. I hope this presentation has convinced you that anxiety horses are just as valid and necessary as guide dogs for the blind.
Also saying she never played piano professionally because shortly after finishing her masters she had an injury that cut her career short. Would it be the narc injury of not getting into a doctoral program? (she claims it’s a painful structural abnormality in her hand. Unsure if it's the same one that gave her anorexia.) She used to teach but can’t anymore because of her health
It's not uncommon for pianists to develop joint problems, especially if she's perform so much that she's completed a master's in piano. Also: she's fat. Fat stores estrogen*, estrogen fucks up your wrists.
She might also be too fat to play well anymore. It's a weirdly rigorous activity, and you can feel when stuff changes in your arms. I know someone who can't even wear their wedding ring because they feel the balance in their hands shift.
and lol the only reason she doesn't teach is because she's ashamed of how nasty her house is
*My doctor told me this, I'm totally open to being wrong.
