Also I would hope that having political views that are considered slightly odd does not keep you from being considered a lovable person. Er,no particular reason for that.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
I think there's a difference between liberal, conservative, and bugfuck crazy, i.e. OMG the vaccines are being delivered in black helicopters and the liberal-conservative-masons establishment is putting flouride into our water to monitor our thoughts.

You know when fluoridation began?...1946. 1946, Mandrake. How does that coincide with your post-war Commie conspiracy, huh? It's incredibly obvious, isn't it? A foreign substance is introduced into our precious bodily fluids without the knowledge of the individual, and certainly without any choice. That's the way your hard-core Commie works. </Gen. Ripper>

No mention of "Drive".
I think it's not really on anyone's radar because the pilot hasn't been shot yet. I'm curious to see if it gets mentioned in FBC's presentation or not.

If I only had a brain...
Duh. hits forehead I keep forgetting that it's not a Fall 2006 show.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
I have wondered before how Joss and Adam worked together. I presume it was a case of 'We'll not talk about politics, like, ever'.
Allyson's Drive description almost makes me want to set up a Drive website. But I'll feel nuts, uh, again.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.
I have friends and family with very different political views than mine and we get along fine. It's entirely possible to not discuss politics with people.
Besides, from what I understand it was usually AB and AT that had the heated political debates on the Firefly set, and the two of them are still friends.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

It's how I work, so it very well could be. On the other hand, they might have enjoyed their differences.

Well, I think it's (usually) fine to discuss politics, myself, as long as both parties understand it shouldn't devolve into hair pulling. I moderate a site which has a very active political forum, which turns into a nightmare every so often.

I loved Rachel's story about how Adam and Peter would bring each other books to read.
