Americans elected a duck.What would you prefer to "head" your country? What kind of barnyard animal would you feel most in tune with and comfy with and why?

A land of the handsome and beautiful. Not so bad.But what did these doctors and nurses look like? PIGS. No kidding. They all had pig faces. Swine. Porcine. That was their standard of acceptablity and saw monstrous in those who did not look like them. They were their own standard of beauty. Unshakable.What we find beautiful or monstrous can vary greatly.What does monstrous consist of for you? The pig or the non-pig? less

Because of some disease you can get from doing so. Pork was thought to be "unclean". So that I totally understand.I am still trying to understand why a duck has such a huge flock who value him. I'm sure it's all my fault. I doubt I ever will. But I know I always will keep trying.

Without it we can only guess.Is all madness detectable and provable? Are some forms elusive? Do the insane go in and out of reality or are they stuck in a world of their own making?You are colorblind and see the world in shades of gray. You would never enjoy a rainbow or a sunset. All gray every day gray gray gray. And you think everyone sees the world in that exact same way but they don't.And so it goes. less

I expect those who tear butterfly wings off or microwave cats enjoy it else why would they do it?

We could have read a novel about the reality of January 20, 2017 through January 20, 2021 and found it grotesquely entertaining but totally unbelievable.See how wrong we would have been? So isn't that a good? Knowing what we did not know and never could have without the splendid display of its existence?

The ones who are unavailable for human decency and normal interactions? Do you have some inner waning system that protects you against them? If so what?
