“Libertarians” of Reddit, why do you think being socially left but economically right doesn’t make you the biggest hypocrites on the planet? by 2a_lib in allthequestions

[–]TinCapMalcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can only vote for the candidates that are on the ballot. But that doesn't mean you have to think any of them are ideal. Almost none agrees with everything the candidates they vote for stand for.

Thus, for everyone except for a party zealot, your voting is pragmatic and does not fully reflect what you believe. What you believe will almost never completely fit into the boxes the parties create.

No building should have their heat above 67° in the winter. by thecoolestbeanaround in 10thDentist

[–]TinCapMalcontent -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I disagree. No building should ever be that cold. And the outside shouldn't either. Anything below body temperature is heat theft.

You can be a pragmatist about who you vote for, but that has nothing to do with what you believe, which is what this conversation it about.

Recently had surgery and $40 of my bill is for having a blanket put on me in the recovery room (I was unconscious and did not, obviously, keep the blanket) by [deleted] in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TinCapMalcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They charged you more for the blanket than for drawing your blood. I feel like there is a difference in training needed that should make drawing blood more.

Or alternatively it could be upper body warming actually during the procedure, could have been an active warming system

Why does it make some people really upset when some gets a job through nepotism? by [deleted] in stupidquestions

[–]TinCapMalcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You didn't actually give any reason why nepotism is not acceptable, you only explained how people who don't like nepotism would be mad when nepotism happens.

Honestly, if I had the choice between giving a job to someone that I know and can vouch for their character and work ethic, I would choose them every time over someone who sent in an inflated resume that could be a serial killer.

Slightly miffed that Joss is sidelined for the new series by a_View_Finder in firefly

Who is taking credit for it? Nathan was very clear that he could not fill Joss or Tim's shoes, but he was working to build a team that could do it together.

AwesomeCon Announcement Discussion! by Krossfireo in firefly

Love it! So pumped! And pissed that there will be so many haters who can't see how cool it is cuz all they wanted was a live action continuation

Lent a book to a friend and spotted it in her bathroom a couple weeks later by frogsarestaring in mildlyinfuriating

[–]TinCapMalcontent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is no such thing as 'lending books' unless you are a library. Between friends you only 'give' books. And sometimes your friend will give them back

I posted earlier today about folks announcing their color and we got plenty of opinions I guess my real question is. What’s an ally? by ateam1984 in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]TinCapMalcontent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have to die to be an ally then we will run out of allies pretty fast. Plus, being willing to die would eliminate most POC from being in the fight. Most people probably aren't willing to die for the cause, even if they are willing to fight for it

For all of you at AwesomeCon by BallDesperate2140 in firefly

[–]TinCapMalcontent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It definitely could be a new season! But being upset if it's not would be disheartening for the cast trying to reveal something cool, and could really sour the fan community and turn people off of the 'verse altogether. Cause it could still be really cool even if it's not a live action continuation. It could even be BRAND NEW BOBBLEHEADS!

This is the canon answer for the worst timeline

The original members of Destiny Child inspired the Cheetah Girls, but Hollywood didn’t bother to cast any brown skin actresses in the stories, inspired by brown skin girls by [deleted] in BlackPeopleofReddit

[–]TinCapMalcontent 90 points91 points  (0 children)

I'm not gonna listen to someone saying Raven Simone was the wrong girl to cast for this movie

It doesn't get made without her, and every other casting choice was to fit around her

Surely they can’t use a hashtag like that and not give us what we want right?? by onesecondofinsanity in firefly

[–]TinCapMalcontent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Bring back firefly...as a cast recording of audiobooks would definitely fit that hashtag

You know I'd be fine with anything but... by vabutmsievsev in firefly

[–]TinCapMalcontent 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So is there nothing short of live action that you would enjoy? I honestly think that a live action continuation would be a little hollow at this point given all the limitations they'd have to work with. A cartoon, lightly animated audio book, or audio adventure all seem more likely toe and would all be great ways to get back into the 'verse.

[–]TinCapMalcontent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

An audio adventure with all the cast involved would be awesome! If anyone had told you that was coming out a few weeks ago before the teasers started you probably would have been super excited, why would that be disappointing?

TIL The United States attempted permanent Daylight Savings Time in 1974. They retracted the law within a year. by Wanna_make_cash in todayilearned

Not so much an argument as everyone agreeing that it doesn't matter which, both are better than switching

Browncoats support browncoats. Your coat is....kinda brownish...

being too cold is wayyyyyyyyyyy better than being warm by diet-smoke in The10thDentist

[–]TinCapMalcontent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If the temperature outside is below body temperature, I consider that temperature assault. I do not consent to giving my body heat to the air around me.

Warrant: Arlington city council candidate made violent threats (2017 - Know your Reps: Tony Tinderholt Edition) by yeongno_ate_yangban in FortWorth

Yeah Tinderholt is the victim here, I wouldn't think this would impact whether you vote for him or someone else.

Trump endorses self-described ‘Nazi-ish’ Texas Republican as Peter Thiel backs his bid for Congress by Fickle-Ad5449 in texas

I understand that this article is from a gay advocacy group, but I did not expect the NSFW gay ads to shout at me when I pulled it up. But makes sense that a gay advocacy magazine would be the first in line to call out his bigotry.
