I wrote this information piece this morning:
Goats are highly promiscuous animals. They mate repeatedly, indiscriminately, and without observable preference for healthy partners. Infected animals are not avoided; if anything, they appear to f*ck relentlessly.
Sexually transmitted and contact-based diseases (caprine brucellosis, contagious ecthyma ‘orf’, and papillomavirus infections) spread rapidly as a result.
Cases present as swollen and misshapen genital tissue, ruptured wart-like growths, thick scabbing that cracks and peels, and discharges that coat hair and skin with a sour, rancid stench. The smell is metallic, rotten, and unmistakably biological.
Goats like to f*ck the most visibly infected members and spread affliction through sex that is neither coerced nor accidental. I draw a parallel to the story of the plagues: punishment multiplying through proximity, indifference, and repetition.
Disease begets disease.
Flesh carries memory.
