Went walking in a park by the river today. It's rained a lot recently.

It's nice of the community to build infrastructure for the merfolk. I bet they don't like stepping in seaweed any better than we do unless it's kept trimmed, but any time I try to mow the riverbed, my lawnmower dies and the park rangers get cross with me.

I pity any merfolk that have to swim in the Wabash.

Do you think freshwater merfolk have some sort of echolocation like the pink river dolphins in the Amazon? So they can see through the silt? Apparently normal humans can do it so why not merfolk?

Like sure, marine merfolk probably don’t need that, what with sand and all, but it would be helpful!
