Here are the Ray Route chat times until Day 10. Day 11 is always the same.

If you’ve know Karl Urban (Bones), like at all, then you know that he’s an upbeat sunshine guy that’s a rare gem blessed upon our world. 

At conventions he’s the kindest, most generous guy you’d ever meet, I know a couple of people who have gone through things from fainting to panic attacks to being disabled and he’s accommodated every single one of them.

But over the past year, as the vast majority of you already know, ‘fans’ have basically started throwing him face first into shit he doesn’t deserve, from spending 3 weeks harassing him over a joke to the point of saying he needs to be deported from the country to making fake social media accounts under his name and trying to pick up and fraud girls with them. In fact the latter happened only yesterday. 

I thought it would be nice if we Star Trek fans and Urbanites actually did something to show our appreciation for a change, to show him there are more of us that DO care than the ones that don’t.

We’re asking for anyone, absolutely ANYONE to record a video of up to 20 seconds of yourself saying anything from simple encouragement to your favorite character of his, how you met him, how he inspired you, etc. 

If you don’t want to show your face, or don’t want to speak, then just record your hands holding paper with any nice quote on it, “thank you” or “keep going” or anything that’s short and snappy.

Send the video to [email protected]. If you want your name on there then tell me in the message so I can add it in the credits. The deadline is 1st March 2018. Once I’ve finished compiling all the videos into one, I’ll send it on twitter and you guys can retweet the hell out of it to make sure he sees it. 

(please for the love of god don’t advertise this on twitter-he checks that everyday, and this is a surprise)

Acting like the crows won’t snatch cigarettes outta people’s mouths.

Please read my manifesto here if you haven’t already- it better explains my beliefs as per the Kirk/Spock dynamic and what I aim to accomplish with this blog. Thanks to @burning–amber for the idea to link it! 

This episode is, in my opinion, more barren than the others in terms of subtext and was rather a chore to work my way through for that reason. Still, I did my best to leave no stone unturned, so hopefully it gives everyone enough food for thought. In any case: 

Kirk and McCoy are beaming down to a planet to do a routine check on a one Dr. Crater and his wife, Nancy. Apparently this is something the Captain of the  starship must be tasked with doing (I think, realistically, if a starship whose mission it is to explore space was tasked with routine checks it’d be nameless red shirts they’d send down instead BUT THEN WE WOULDN’T HAVE A STORY). Apparently Nancy was once McCoy’s girlfriend and this delights Kirk to no end. Pay attention to how Kirk treats this presence of a love interest with McCoy. It’ll be important for later on when we’ll have to compare Kirk’s behavior to when Spock is given a bit of crumpet instead. 

(Kirk being a proper jackass about bringing McCoy’s old girlfriend “flowers”) 

I mean that the ‘gifts’ I had are useless

Reading books above my age isn’t a talent when I’m not eleven

Knowing big words isn’t a talent when I’m not a kid, it’s just growing up

Thing is, gifted children are not amazingly better than everyone else. Gifted brains just don’t work the same so they build their skills in a different order

Basically when you’re very young, most people brain learn social skills and how to interact with their peers, but gifted brains are already at the next step which is how to understand and interact with the world

That makes the stereotypical young children that are very good at math, always asking questions about how things work, very upset when they don’t know a thing

But the thing is, when everyone gets older, they’ve mastered most social skills and now turn towards understanding the world

But the gifted children have already mastered that part and are turning towards how to build social skills. Except there’s no one left to teach us about that! Because we’re late to that party

Long story short, at the end everyone, gifted or not, goes through all the necessary steps to make functioning adults, so the difference that was obvious as a child has disappeared
