Absolutely obsessed with the House renaissance happening on tumblr right now. Really glad everyone woke up 12 years after the show ended and went "Wait a minute. what the fuck was THAT"
dying at wilson obliviously eating his sandwich while house is sitting there consumed with lust trying to use blatant homoerotic imagery to blast the idea of hot gay sex directly into wilson's brain
reddit removed two of my posts from r/crochet because I was “encouraging illegal activity.”
Which. Fair. I was explaining how easy it is to steal from Hobby Lobby.
They don’t have door sensors or barcodes, and I believe their overall security camera coverage is fake or shit.
You see, when barcodes were invented, evangelicals were convinced it was the sign of the devil (or government tracking; hard to tell). The point is, Hobby Lobby doesn’t have bar codes to this day because the devil could jump in your belly button.
And if you don’t have barcodes, you CAN’T have door sensors because the devil could jump right up a vagina, and you could get impregnated with the antichrist, and Hobby Lobby would have to make a very difficult choice about their anti-contraception views.
Oh, and they knowingly stole a fuckton of ancient artifacts, and the money they paid for those (not all stealing is just taking; sometimes money changes hands) funded fucking ISIS.
So. If you’re intellectually curious. You can steal from Hobby Lobby REALLY EASILY.
there was a swedish guy in like the early 1900s that literally just traveled to Australia, attended a funeral of an indigenous person and then HE CAME BACK A FEW WEEKS LATER TO DIG UP THE BONES TO KEEP IN HIS COLLECTION!!!!
DO YOU HEAR ME??!!!
HE WENT ON A FUNERAL AND THEN CAME BACK TO DIG UP THE BONES!!!!!!!
Thankfully the aboriginal people there had heard he had dug up bones previously and they moved the grave.
AND WHEN HE DISCOVERED THIS HE GOT MAD AND SAID THE ABORIGINAL PEOPLE COULDN'T BE TRUSTED
one of my favorite displays of wilson and house's relationship actually comes from the juxtaposition between wilson and cameron. in s3 when cameron visits house during a detox, she sees that he's cut himself and treats it. house asks her not to bandage it, so he can pour alcohol onto it. she says he can rip the bandages off himself. in opposition we have wilson in s1 treating house during a detox when house smashes his hand. house asks him not to splint it so he can smash it against the desk and wilson doesn't. he doesn't reprimand house for harming himself or act shocked that he's harmed himself the way cameron does. he recognizes the inevitability of house harming himself and where cameron essentially says 'don't make me part of your shit' we have wilson saying 'i don't care what you do, just make me part of it.' #1 enabler wilson pull through.
i 100% believe that, on the night they met, house tried to get wilson into bed. he was probably subtle, and wilson just didn’t pick up on it, but it really is obvious from an outside perspective.
house saw wilson at a conference, noticed him, deduced that he was getting divorced, tracked him to a bar, watched him have a breakdown and get arrested, followed him to the police station, and bailed him out of jail.
A 2024 version of House MD would have to feature Wilson marvelling at House who has just had an epiphany and solved another impossible case, and Thirteen looking at Wilson and saying “You want to fuck that old man so bad it makes you look stupid.”
When a person belonging to a minority group says or does something bad, you are, of course, free to criticize them. But it still does not give you the right to be a bigot. Noah Schnapp sharing stupid, careless, and uninformed geopolitical opinions deserves to be called out, but it does not mean that you suddenly get to tell him that he should have been gassed by Hitler or killed by anti-Jewish hate groups or terrorists — both things I've read on Twitter and on Tumblr. It does not justify you calling him homophobic or antisemitic slurs.
"But he deserves it!" you argue. First of all, why do you think so? What makes it okay for any person to be given the green signal to get called slurs, or have people advocate for them to get hatecrimed? And more importantly, you are only signaling to your Jewish friends that you are actually capable of antisemitism. Same thing goes with your queer friends, or any friends belonging to a minority group. When you justify one form of bigotry, even to just one person — you justify all forms of bigotry.
So if you find yourself doing any of these, ask yourself why it's so easy to slip into bigoted rhetoric instead of simply focusing your criticism on what a person did/said.
