An Ode To Spot

Felis catus is your taxonomic nomenclature,

An endothermic quadruped, carnivorous by nature;

Your visual, olfactory, and auditory senses

Contribute to your hunting skills and natural defenses.

I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,

A singular development of cat communications

That obviates your basic hedonistic predilection

For a rhythmic stroking of your fur to demonstrate affection.

A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;

You would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.

And when not being utilized to aid in locomotion,

It often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

O Spot, the complex levels of behavior you display

Connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.

And though you are not sentient,

Spot, and do not comprehend,

I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend. 

From Star Trek: The Next Generation S6E5 “Schisms”

If I was on the Enterprise I would not be bored by Data’s poetry in the slightest.

The red lights on his temples where the VISOR attaches are glowing. Behind him is a starry stretch of space. End description.]

6 year old me was so right, Geordi La Forge is so fucking cool

A while ago a post came across my dash about how Data, Geordi and Spot would be perfectly comfortable sitting in the dark because technically none of them need light to see, and how this probably freaked people out at least once. Imagine stepping into a room, it's pitch black except for ....👀

That's been in the back of my mind ever since.

(and I lost the post I swear I had it saved in my drafts but no, anyone know the post I'm referencing??? 😭)

Anyway, here is a gif also:
