Appreciation?In 30 parts, By FinalStand. Listen to the podcast at Explicit Novels.             “Children must face the scrutiny of their parents”   The Dining Hall was almost a relief. That relief died the moment I saw the banner over the front of the serving area in the Hall. 'Zane Appreciation Day'. Since every word was spelled correctly, it wasn't some stunt of Rio's, but beyond that, the list of suspects was too large to consider. This could be a genuine outpouring of acceptance and sympathy for what I had endured here. If you believe that, I have to ask you: 'Do you want your leprechaun pissing Guinness or Irish Malt?' Most likely, this was going to be some sort of humiliation, and I think I knew the flavor, and I definitely knew how to find out. See, in every seat of the Dining Hall was a big, bowling ball sized white box with a name and secured with a gold and green ribbon, so no cheating; no peeking. That last bit didn't deter me, though. I snuck up on the box marked for Holiday Carpenter. "Zane, does that have your name on it?" Virginia Goodswell asked me, my English teacher and Spiritual Advisor. Hell, if it had been Mrs. Marlowe, I would have opened it anyway, but Virginia was my buddy so her next question didn't mean to stab a stake of regret through my heart. "Where is Vivian?" "I left my room before she was done." I looked to the ground while I kicked some imaginary dust off the slate floor. "Why don't you see if she's been calling you?" she suggested. "She's probably worried." Worried, or homicidal because, ya know, I had sort of run off without my phone, wallet, watch, book bag, or anything else a 21st century student might need. "I ran away like a big, fat chicken," I confessed. "Anything not glued to my body I left behind." "I'll give her a call." She pulled out her phone and hit speed dial #2. I crap since her sick mother is probably #1. I am such a big problem for her, she has my guardian on speed dial! "That is Holiday Carpenter's box, Zane, not yours. Besides, there are strict instructions to not open the boxes until instructed." The panicky response I overheard from Virginia's conversation with Vivian hardly helped my mood. She wanted to know if Virginia knew where I was, she did; that I was okay, I was; and finally, what upset me, because the other girls weren't talking but apparently Mercy had started slapping Barbie Lynn around until Rio and Val pulled her off. Now, that made less than no sense. Wasn't that supposed to work the other way around? Virginia did a double check and sure enough, Mercy had slammed Barbie Lynn into an open wardrobe on my behalf, and Rio and Val had pulled her back. WTF! I am sure that Rio was right beside me on that one. Vivian triple checked that I was physically and mentally okay and she sounded so disappointed, in herself, as she did so. She was bringing my stuff; yes, I am an earthworm. Virginia promised for me that I would remain here until she arrived. Some stupid gesture like a loud public apology, done on bended knee, was blatantly unfair to Vivian, who only meant the best for me. I made a quick apology, not trying to meet her eyes as I said the words and took my stuff. All of 'my' girls seemed equally subdued. A minute after we had garnered our victuals, Vivian put a hand on my elbow. "Don't be so hard on yourself, Zane," Vivian smiled warmly at me. "You take a lot of stress and pressure on yourself. I understand that from time to time you need to take in a tiny bit of private space for yourself. Clearly, you can't schedule any such time because nothing around you stays a secret for very long and no one respects your privacy or even asks what you need." "Vivian," I was puzzled, "you deserve to be righteously pissed with me. You are my Guardian and I promised to stay by you or at least tell you where I was." "Zane, we let you down," Vivian assured me. "It is your dorm room and we are your guests, and we have been rather poor guests at that." "How about we call a truce?" I offer. "I can live with that," Vivian smiled. "Cut the Kumbaya-time, kids," Rio snorted derisively. "Zane, what the fuck happened with Mercy?" Rio playfully punched Mercy's arm to emphasize her uncertainty. "Rio, Bro, drop it," I asked sincerely. "Act like it didn't happen." Rio studied me a second, then got this wickedly evil grin. "What the hell are you talking about, Glenda?" she hefted the box up then shook it. "It seems my damn box is glued shut. Are we celebrating one thousand cunts licked by you, or what?" Because Rio rarely expounded at a level below full volume, next thing we hear is Mrs. Marlow snapping, "Ms. Talon, watch your language; there are good Christian women being forced to sit within the sound of your voice!" "Gotcha, Ms. Mouthful," Rio snapped off with a snap and a finger raised up like a pistol in the air. "What did you say?" Marlowe closed the distance. "She was repeating what I pointed out," I turned and smiled. "I said that you really had it going together this morning; that you were more than a mouthful. That's a hip/trending term to describe someone who is expressing themselves through clothing and make-up." "You are lying, Mr. Braxton," she snarled. "You are probably right, as I do so to you on general principle, but good luck proving it in student court," I grinned right back. We locked wills and she blinked first. "Ms. Phillips," Marlowe turned on Vivian, "what are you going to do about this?" "Zane and Rio, would you please apologize for being rude and insensitive to an educator who only wishes the best for the student body?" Vivian requested. "I so apologize," I bowed my head. "I so apologize as well," Rio tacked on. Only after Marlowe had gone to spread love and sunshine somewhere else did Rio lean across me and whisper to Vivian. "You rock!" Rio giggled gleefully. After all, Rio and I had not apologized to Mrs. Marlowe because neither one of us believed for a minute that she was 'an educator who only wishes the best for the student body'. To that nameless entity, we owed a debt, and to Mrs. Marlow we owed a generous 'fuck you,' and Vivian had made it all possible. "Why, thank you, Rio," Vivian nodded her acceptance of Rio's praise. "Jesus is the Peacemaker and we all should attempt to emulate his teachings." "So, I still don't get to lick you senseless?" Rio snickered. "No, no, you don't," Vivian smiled, even though she didn't look at either of us. Vivian's going to rock as a mom. The next half hour passed quietly. Everyone was curious about the boxes but no one was too worried until a rumor suddenly appeared. When it was suggested that they might have to put on bikinis, the fear set in. I blamed, I don't know but I wish I had thought of it. I was still kicking myself for the missed opportunity when my alien with the right face black and left face white shows up with the right face white and left face black, Mhain and Millicent. "Death Match and you get to referee," Rio teased me. "I'm so jealous; 500 bucks on the one with the soul." Mhain glared hate at us while Millicent looked more than amused. "Zane, come with us," Mhain gloated. I figured that somehow my ordeal was coming to an end so I'd play along. I rose and they steered me to the largest exit, flanking me. Christina and Company grabbed their boxes and jumped up quickly to follow me, though they looked as confused as I was, confirming none of them were the architect of my discomfort. No sooner had we stepped into the cool, sunlit lawn than everyone's phone rang, except mine. I was loving this, right up there with having sandpaper buffing my sunburned abs. "Open the box and follow the instructions," Christina informed me. "Is anyone going to do this?" My phone vibrated once, then my whole body tingled before I could respond to the call. "I am," Mhain gloated. "I was promised something." She knelt and opened her box with enthusiasm; the others did likewise but at a more sedate pace. What came out of each box was almost identical, different only in the anatomical part of the body indicated by the instructions. The objects were all grapefruit-sized fur-balls that made darling little squeaks, squeals and murmurs, amongst other sympathetic noises, all in tiny little voices. They were to be placed on my body, but I didn't know how that would work. "Are we going to do this?" Chastity began to say. "It isn't sticky," Hope was also saying when Mhain's flew out of her hand and hit the side of my left knee. She reached out carefully to retrieve hers while the other girls circled in. The little darlings were proving to be resilient little bastards. Several more leapt at me from the hands of their owners. All this time the furry grapefruit were giving little 'wee!' noises when they shot at me and screeched like demons when they were removed, which was painful when they were on my flesh. I knew who was responsible and she was going to pay, but not right now. I saw my closest allies pulling back. "TLM, Christina," I sighed in resignation. "Let's get this over with." I was being totally self-sacrificial; girls were starting to pile-up on us coming out of the Dining Hall. I didn't want a riot. Mhain had technically tagged me first but not in the designated spot, so I had Christina go first, she put one over my heart, not that I thought Cordelia was stupid, but now she was just piling it on. Mhain went next and she was sizzling and excited, she put it on my lips, shutting me up. At least the girls were polite and organized enough to come at me patiently. A few didn't get the 'memo' and their little rug rats slipped out of their owner's grasp and got to play gleeful kamikaze as they plowed into me. It didn't hurt but I had this secret fear that the tiny terrors would sprout fangs and tear into me. These little guys were murmuring and mumbling and it wasn't until I was truly buried that a horrific realization was made, the more that were on me, the greater their clinging power. In retrospect, this would have been more useful if we hadn't passed the 700 mark. I looked like a puffy, overweight, Sasquatch baby. I could move but sitting down was a dream, as was running or going to the bathroom. The damn things wouldn't shut up either. It fell to Hope and Iona to hurry me (as much as possible) to Assembly; you know that place where I 'sit' in front. At least no one could ask me anything

Last April, Anika and Liz each bought a copy of the June 1999 issue of the official Star Trek magazine. Then we had ... some other things to podcast about. But we've finally opened it, and we're talking about... Remember when we'd pay US$7.99 -- or AU$15! -- for a magazine that contained a couple of interviews, some facts we already knew about the Klingon Empire and a Bird-of-Prey pinup? The Kate Mulgrew interview:  She does not talk about her relationship with Jeri Ryan (but we do) None of the other captains of this era had to talk about how work took them away from their kids -- and Scott Bakula had a toddler when Enterprise started! (Hey, isn't it cool that now Anson Mount can request and get paternity leave, and no one's asking Sonequa Martin-Green how she balances motherhood with her career?) Putting the Janeway/Chakotay relationship on the backburner (and where they could end up in Prodigy -- that's us speculating, not Kate in 1999…) We try to picture Kate Mulgrew in the MCU and fail spectacularly Let's all take a moment to send bad vibes to Liz's grade 10 drama teacher Jason Alexander and the woke agenda 1999 NFTs Anika wants you to know that D. C. Fontana shipped Spock/Christine 25 years later, Tim Russ deserves an apology for the interview which closes the magazine

In today's episode we're having a look at Worf, a character who's a rare series regular between two whole Star Trek shows. We wanted to have a look at some early stories of him in both TNG and DS9 and they both ended up being about bad actors wanting to ‘Make Qo'NoS Great Again' in their own ways. First we've got some rebellious Klingons making trouble in the Neutral Zone and Worf's first time being torn between his new friends and his work friends in “Heart of Glory”. Then we're over to some rash decisions from the Klingon Empire as they decide to invade Cardassia right after it's had a rebellion against its own government in “Way of the Warrior Parts 1 & 2”. This is a big, status quo changing episode with a lot of fun guest stars like friend of the pod Gul Dukat, Martok and the glorious eyes of Gowron. 0:19:39 TNG: Heart of Glory 0:49:49 DS9: Way of the Warrior Part 1 & 2 Just so you know Miles was beeping a little as the batteries on his explosive collar were running low. I edited around the beeps a lot, but there are a few still in there. - C Talking points include: our reasons for covering this episode, manifesting a god by having enough people scream at a road, The Exorcist, Brad Dourif being a moist serial killer, Brad Dourif being a good egg in Deadwood, Goodfellas (apparently that is Ray Liotta's real laugh), the works of M-Scoz, Kylie Minogue, Rick Astley, Bill Bailey's Klingonness, Blake's 7, Classic Doctor Who, The Simpsons, ValSpeak, Shenmue, Wing Commander, The Young Ones, Babylon 5, Red Dwarf, Brian K Vaughan, Mystique, Star Wars and space battles, event comics, and Gengar. Oh, and occasionally Star Trek. Pedant's Corner: Sweeps weeks are when people like Nielsen do their ratings calculations, so channels often pulled big stunts to try and get people watching. We didn't know AGIMUS was going to come back when this was recorded The decision and placement of Way of the Warrior was quick, even if it was sidetracked by several tangents Casual Trek is by Charlie Etheridge-Nunn and Miles Reid-Lobatto Music by Alfred Etheridge-Nunn Casual Trek is a part of the Nerd & Tie Network https://ko-fi.com/casualtrek Miles' blog: http://www.mareidlobatto.wordpress.com Charlie's blog: http://www.fakedtales.com

Irish wakes. University of Ohio. Accents. Making it to LA. Writing poetry and short stories. Fighting with his friend JG Hertzler. And of course, booking Star Trek and the birth of "those eyes!" Wash is looking better. Erica gets some fan questions in, this week's Star Trek Trivia gets chopped because of time, and Robert plays “Stuck on a Deserted Island with Connor Trinneer.” It's another awesome conversation and another amazing Star Trek icon having some laughs.

Spoiler Alert! Worf had a secret baby with K'Ehleyr and thought right before a tense moment of negotiation between the Klingon Empire and the Federation was the best time to lay it on him. Then she has the gall to be murdered for figuring out he was discommendated because of something Duras' father did. How rude!

“Marauders” 20th-anniversary reflections. Archer continues setting the stage for centuries of conflict between the Federation and the Klingon Empire when he stands up for the inhabitants of a mining colony. But, to be fair, how hard is it to come into conflict with Klingons? Deuterium aside, the captain doesn't like bullies, not on Earth and not here—on whatever planet this is. The crew of the Enterprise puts Klingon Commander Korok—not nearly as cute as his Zelda namesake—in his place when they teach the colonists how to defend themselves. In this episode of Warp Five, hosts C Bryan Jones and Matthew Rushing continue our 20th-anniversary retrospective that takes you through all of Star Trek: Enterprise, one episode at a time. In this installment, we continue Season 2 with “Marauders” as we discuss how it mirrors its Akira Kurosawa inspiration, Seven Samurai, grows the relationship between Archer and T'Pol, and gets the full crew involved.

At this point in world events, it's not hard to see that the evolution of human consciousness is critical to our survival as a species. We just have to grow up. And the way things are going, it seems like we better get moving.           Over the years, one of the biggest problems we've faced is the simple fact that our technology always grows at a much faster pace than our character does. It's always been like this. We create things for ourselves much faster than we actually understand ourselves. And this has some inherent danger to it.           Even though our world seems incredibly sophisticated, in certain ways we still live by the law of the jungle - Dog eat dog, winner take all. And on that basic level, we're not much better than a bunch of cavemen and women who, among other destructive inventions, have also created nuclear weapons.  In that way, not a lot's changed since we first came up with the sword and spear. It's just a matter of degree.           And what's driving this whole thing? On a basic level, it's just plain fear. We're still afraid of our own shadow. And our fear has been the cause of most of the tragic, human-to-human calamities that we've inflicted on ourselves since the dawn of civilization. At least what we like to call civilization.           It reminds me of a famous quote from Mahatma Gandhi from 1931. Towards the end of his visit to England, a reporter asked him, “What do you think of Western Civilization and Gandhi quickly replied, “I think it would be a good idea.”           Some say that human history is simply a reflection of the state of human intelligence. If that's true, do we have the capacity to change things for the better by changing ourselves for the better. Can we evolve into something far greater than we are?           That's a question I've been entertaining since I was fourteen years old. It was the summer of 1963. I was at camp and got introduced to idea of the evolution of consciousness in a most unexpected way – through a few panels of a comic book.           Like all the other kids, I had been a major comic book addict and for years with my main focus on Superman and Batman. But this summer I had been introduced to a new company called Marvel Comics and it was really expanding my imagination. They still featured action stories, but they always gave you a twist.           In the last Fantastic Four episode, they had introduced an alien named “The Watcher,” from an advanced race of beings. He had become friends with Reed Richards, who was the leader of the Fantastic Four. One day, Richards wandered into The Watcher's laboratory when he wasn't there. He absentmindedly picked up a baton-like device and in an instant, he was rooted to the ground and couldn't move. His head began morphing into a much larger size.           Suddenly, The Watcher burst in, grabbed the baton out of Richards's hand and with a different tool, returned his head back to its normal size. Once Richards had recovered, The Watcher told him he must never touch anything in the laboratory again without The Watcher being there. He went on to explain that the device Richards was holding was a “Consciousness Enhancer” and in those few seconds, it had evolved him forward a thousand years. He had actually become a human being of the far distant future.           As a fellow scientist, he asked Richards what the experience had been like. Richards said he wasn't able to retain all the details, but he could remember that he had gone into a heightened state of awareness and was fully merged with the power of the universe. The joy of being in that consciousness was indescribable.           It was all so foreign to me, but something about the idea of being able to evolve into a higher state of being took deep root in me. Like a seed being planted with unknown potential, it hit me in a place in my imagination that I still far too young to be in touch with.           A few years later, I experienced a similar event when I unexpectedly encountered the idea of the evolution of consciousness in a TV show.  It was March of 1967. I was 18 years old and a senior in high school and I flipped on Star Trek. I wasn't a big Trekkie. I just used to watch it every once in a while.              In case you don't know, the original Star Trek takes place in the future, in the year 2265. The good guys are the Federation and the Starship Enterprise is one of its ships, commanded by Captain James Kirk and his first mate, a half-human, half-Vulcan creature named Mr. Spock. The villains of the series are the Klingons, a vicious, brutal dictatorship that is directly opposed to the high-minded principles of the Federation.           As the episode begins, negotiations between the Federation and the Klingons have broken down and the two sides are about to go to war. On orders from the Federation, Kirk and Spock go visit a planet called Organia, which is near the border of the Klingon Empire. They want to convince its people not to allow the Klingons to set up a base there.           Spock has researched the planet and as they approach he tells Kirk that the Organians are a primitive people, living in a low-level society that has had no significant advancement for thousands of years. They are dim-witted, but quite peaceful.           “Just the kind of weak innocents that make perfect fodder for Klingon domination,” Kirk observes.           Kirk and Spock get beamed down to the planet and meet with the Elder of the Organian society. Kirk explains that they are with the Federation, which stands for freedom and self-rule. He also explains that the Klingons are probably on their way and will seek to dominate them and take over the entire planet for their own purposes.           He makes a strong appeal that they should join forces with the Federation and allow them to set up defenses against the Klingons. But the Elder declines. He explains that they don't believe in fighting and warfare, regardless of the reason. But he tells him that he and Spock are welcomed to stay and observe.           Kirk and Spock take up residence on the planet to spy on the Klingons, who land soon after. In short order, with brute force, they begin to take over the planet.           At one point, Kirk and Spock are captured. Kirk had been supplying the Federation with information on the Klingon operations and now an all-out war between the Federation and the Klingons seems inevitable.           The Klingon Commander decides to put more pressure on the Organians to join with them against the Federation. He says they will execute 20 Organians every hour as long as they refuse to cooperate. The Elder is not moved and within the hour, the executions begin. Twenty innocent people are brutally murdered in public every single hour.           Sadly, this strategy of a dominating nation with superior firepower, conquering another country and terrorizing its citizens into submission, so they can steal their resources has played out on earth more times than can be counted. And tragically, it still continues to this day.           In the fictional world of the future, the regardless of the Klingon's brutality, Organians still refuse to cooperate.           The Klingon Commander finally meets one on one with Kirk to see if he can force him to give out any information about the Federation's plans. Immediate negative sparks fly between them, but even though they clearly hate each other, they do have one thing in common. As military men, they have both come to despise the Organians, who clearly have no spine and will not stand and fight for their own land. And they're even willing to have their innocent citizens killed, rather than put up any resistance.           Although Kirk's revulsion for the Klingons is obvious, the Klingon Commander appreciates it. “Good honest hatred is refreshing,” he says. “I don't trust people who smile too much.”           Suddenly, the two men are told that they must meet with the Organian Council immediately. An important announcement is about to be made. As they approach, the Organian Elder looks at them with the same, peaceful benign look he always has and then says, “As I stand here, I also stand upon the home planet of the Klingon Empire and the home planet of the Federation to make this pronouncement. I am putting a stop to this insane war of yours.”           The two commanders, along with Spock, stare at him in disbelief             “Yes. It's being done,” the Elder continues. “All your forces, wherever they are, are now immobilized. Feel free to confirm if you like.” Both Kirk and the Klingon commander use their devices to communicate with their headquarters and they find out, to their amazement, that all of their joint destructive power has mysteriously gone dead.           “We find interference in other people's affairs most offensive, but you gentlemen have given us no choice,” the Elder says.           “You should be the first to be on our side,” Kirk responds bluntly. “Two hundred innocent hostages have already been killed.”           “No one has been killed, Captain,” the Elder informs him. “No one has died on this planet for thousands of years.”           Then he makes another declaration. “Your emotions are most discordant. We do not wish to be inhospitable, but gentlemen, you must leave. The mere presence of beings like yourselves is intensely painful to us.”           “What do you mean, beings like yourselves?” Kirk asks.           “Millions of years ago, Captain, we were of humanoid lineage like yourselves as well. But we have evolved far beyond all that. We have no need for physical bodies. That of us which you see here is a mere appearance we have made for your sake.”           At that point, the Elder and the other Organians in the room transform into pulsating light, too bright to look at. Then they disappear. In another moment, Kirk and Spock are mysteriously transported back to the bridge of the Enterprise. Kirk is near shock, but Spock, as always, is completely calm. It's the Vulcan in him.           “Fascinating,” he says. “Pure energy. Pure thought. Totally incorporeal. Not life as we know it at all.”           “But what about the whole planet with its fields and its buildings?” Kirk asks.           “Probably just a conventionalized prop,” Spock responds. “Useless to the Organians. Created so that visitors such as ourselves could have normalized points of reference.”           “Doesn't seem possible,” Kirk observes.           “Captain, it took millions of years for the Organians to evolve into what they are. I would say that they are as far above us on the evolutionary scale as we are above the amoeba.” And with that incredible statement, the episode ended.           Now, I was sixteen years old and was completely blown out. First of all, it was such a surprise that these kindly, meek and apparently powerless creatures were actually far more powerful that the Federation and the Klingons combined. They certainly didn't show it, but I guess they just didn't have any ego about it.           And also, this was the first time I had never heard the idea that there could be a lifeform that was more evolved than we are, let alone being as far above us on the evolutionary scale as we are from the amoeba. That comparison was really too much to wrap my head around.  What if there really were creatures that were that much more evolved than we are. What would they be like? And what about us? The Organians evolved, how far can we grow?           Sometimes even though you don't see it coming, an idea comes out of the blue that radically changes our point of view. With these outrageous depictions of consciousness evolution from the Watcher and Star Trek, suddenly our whole way of life, with all our petty attachments seem so small. And from that perspective, our endless history of war after war after war, filled with killing, suffering and pain, looks like just one long catastrophe. Can we grow beyond it?           We'll maybe we can't evolve a thousand years in thirty seconds.  But still, we gotta be able to do better than this…           So, that's the end of this episode. As always, keep your eyes, mind and heart opened, and let's get together in the next one.
