My Spirit Animal Is A Prairie Dog

The art of mindless embroidery.

[ID: A playlist titled "spock explains pon farr to kirk" by user taken from amok time. The playlist is 4 hours and 5 minutes long and uses song titles to spell out an entire conversation, here transcribed in plain text:

"Captain, there are some things which transcend even the discipline of the service." "Would it help if I told you that I'll treat this as totally confidential?" "It has to do with biology." "What?" "Biology" "What kind of biology?" "Vulcan biology" "You mean the biology of Vulcans?" "Biology, as in, reproduction?" "Well, there's no need to be embarrassed about it Mr. Spock. It happens to the birds and the bees." End ID]

HERE IS THE PLAYLIST FOR THOSE WHO WANTED IT

and here’s the link to the website he puts in his videos:

Not only is the conversation format immersive and helpful for learning the grammar, but the students make common mistakes which he corrects, mistakes I wouldn’t have otherwise know I was making.

He also emphasizes learning ASL in the way it’s actually used by the Deaf community and not the rigid structure that some ASL teachers impose in their classrooms

His lesson plans include learning about the Deaf community, which is an important aspect of learning ASL. Knowing how to communicate in ASL without the knowledge of the culture behind it leaves out a lot of nuances and explanations for the way ASL is.

Lastly, his lessons are just a lot of fun to watch. He is patient, entertaining, and funny. This good natured enthusiasm is contagious and learning feels like a privilege and not a chore

to outrageously handsome in his beard and competence and smiling at Ethan Benji

(Wait - I forgot brilliant and yet undiscovered Benji, waiting to be given in his purpose in life in the shape of a phone call from Ethan…)

Phew! Back to outrageously handsome Benji, so stunning in a tux even Ethan ‘this is going to be strictly professional with absolutely no contact’ has to remark on it

And of course ‘I am playing a role to fool Walker I am a weak and weedy tech guy. Doesn’t mean I can’t look good in it’ Benji is delightful (I love how when walker isn’t looking he drops the befuddled and nervous look and becomes watchful, competent, aware and keeping the plan on track. I adore watching him change depending on whether or not walker is looking, and keeping Ethan on track for the plan)

And i am aware he is going through a crisis in DR but he does look so good brooding and tortured but keeping it firmly under control (well that’s a kink I didn’t know I had)

And finally, Benji getting the adoration he deserves (I have decided that whatever is going on here, Ethan is finally telling Benji how much he means to him)

There. Hope no one minded my little moment of Benji Dunn appreciation
