Cleopatra In Space is awesome! There are 3 seasons which are an adaptation of the first 3 of 6 total graphic novels! The alien language showcased in the show is consistent in its alphabet! The pacing is good! The foreshadowing is divine! The voice acting is excellent! The intro music is VERY 2019 in the BEST way possible! I called ALL the major plot twists! I'm brewing up fanfiction plots!

I'm not even hyperfixating!😭 This show is just that good!!!!

Many people have been amusing themselves by giving their cats buttons that say words: "pets", "toy", "food", "mad" etc.

Cats will readily learn to press buttons if it prompts a reaction from humans. There is a lot of over-interpreting cat behavior. The words are so suggestive... but it seems fun for the cats and people.

It is ... telling that multiple cats enjoy pushing the "mad" button over and over. Maybe because humans find it funny? Or maybe because it is true.

I've considered how one might make such buttons for ants.

But there is a fundamental problem. Ants struggle to perceive us due to our huge size. We are more like weather and terrain to them.

So, to interact with ants you would need an ant-size avatar. As an ant-size object that moves you will be classified as either: food, enemy, symbiont or colony member

Symbiont seems like the most fruitful stance.

This is why I really do need a little beetle-sized robot and VR goggles.

Of course the idea of being beyond one's understanding due to sheer size is terrifying and fruitful in its own way.

if pets like BilliSpeaks can comprehend human language when spoken outloud, (shown by when they respond in the same language via button-pressing)……

do ALL cats comprehend spoken human language from their owners, and most just cant demonstrate it cuz they dont have buttons?

i know sometimes dogs react behaviorally to the word “walk”!!
