I know you think I'm on repeat, but c'mon! You know I meant well!

This whole mess is not my fault! I didn't go to one rally, listen to any speeches, or watch the conventions! I don't even follow the headlines! Heck, I don't even have a duck-darn television. - How can I be responsible for Geese Without Borders? We immigrate every year! I had nothing to do with any of it- you know me, Larry! -

Losing a pal like Larry gets me in a nasty fluff. How can I convince my friend that I am still here for him if he won't listen or answer my "Wacky-Quack-Wacky-Quack" calls? You'd think I'd ruffled his feathers 'cause I want clean water, clean air and okay, I admit: 18 daughters got me thinking about equality and females having the right to choose.

Here's a cold-hearted fact, one that Larry probably should brood on, in fact all geese should brood on this ~ as of right now, 2024, no animals have the right to vote ~ none.

Fish should be very worried, not to mention those little Buzzi’s with stingers. Fact is, it's up to our two-legged vertical friends to think about our futures, and no, I am not referring to chimpanzees, although... perhaps they'd be better off in charge. ~
