Yes, Mermaids exist.
They have existed forever, and they didn’t always look like this…
They didn’t start out looking like pre-Raphaelite paintings.
They were originally as aggressive and occasionally violent as the hairy jungle primates. They were also intensely vocal. Why they were known as Sirens. And they were predators.
What also seems possible at least is that they were shapeshifters, not of our space or time or dimension, but older than human life, maybe involved in the creation of Homo sapiens. Why the oldest known advanced human civilization in recorded history, the Sumerians, had gods who looked like fish, stank like fish, stood upright, and taught language to primitive men, whom they bred and used as slaves to mine gold.
They could appear to us in any guise. They were ALL the old gods we had. And they encouraged us to mythologize them as beautiful women with and without tails as sex permitted. The romance of mermaids was born. Until the Borg assimilated them too.
They morphed quickly under the control of the Borg. But that’s grist for another post.
