I'm rewatching House because of the House renaissance on tumblr but also bec it was my fav show before I had The Accident 9 yrs ago...
And I'm actually so impressed at still feeling quite similar to the way I did then? Because it's not a perfect show, and certainly none of the characters in it are... But it's such incredibly compelling storytelling, and fascinating characterisation, and I love how much those aspects factor into every single episode... And how much the so called filler episodes actually factor affirm that.
I like how shit every single character is. Fallible, if you will. And I like how the seasons have space for funny things, and weird things, breathers for the spectators and the characters (and not always at the same time).
I just. I feel like the focus is so much on tight plots and brilliant stories to lure in viewers that all of that is gone? There's no... Space for silliness. Or weirdness. Or actually things that DON'T quite work.
And simultaneously, I think House is still a masterclass in character driven storytelling (in which the illnesses are a character too!). Certainly until idk Broken (s6).
Yeah the show plays into stereotypes! Sometimes in bad and/or gross and/or damaging ways! But it subverts them too! And the message is never, ever, to assume that the stereotype is the whole truth. Or that some people are impervious to it. I'm also not saying the way I watch the show is the way everyone does but idk I like the way it makes me think abt things. And I like how it STILL does that now and the only thing that's felt a bit dated so far is house's Gameboy... Maybe. He WOULD still use his gameboy anno 2024!

The idea that uni protesters are "elitist ivy-league rich kids larping as revolutionaries" on Twitter and Reddit and even here is so fucking funny to me if you actually know anything about the student bodies at these unis. Take it from someone who's going to one of the biggest private unis in the US, 80% of the peers I know are either from the suburbs or an apartment somewhere in America, children of immigrants, or here on a student visa. I've heard about one-percenter students, but I've never met one in person. Like, don't get me wrong, the institution as a whole is still very privileged and white. I've talked with friends and classmates about feeling weird or dissonant being here and coming from such a different background. But in my art program, I see BIPOC, disabled, queer, lower-income students and faculty trying to deconstruct and tear that down and make space every day. So to take a cursory glance at a crowd of student protesters in coalitions that are led by BIPOC & 1st/2nd-gen immigrant students and HQ'd in ethnic housings and student organizations and say, "ah. children of the elite." Get real.
#also idk how to tell you this but even if it were true. wealthy children potentially sacrificing their educational careers to protest is#a good thing actually. idk how to tell you that caring about people from other nations is good#personal#“this war has nothing to do with most students cuz nobody's getting drafted” idk how to explain to you that we should be angry#that our tuitions of 10s of thousands of dollars that we pay every year for an education is being used to fund a genocidal campaign#also the implication that if you go to a uni institution you are automatically privileged by participation no matter your bg#i didn't /want/ to go to this school. i was supposed to go to a school with an art/animation program. but i realized my immigrant#parents have been working their whole lives to get me here. and turning the opportunity down would be a disservice to their sacrifice#this is getting into convos of “what 2nd gen kids owe their parents” which is different for everyone but. yeah#i just get pissed off at seeing people misrepresenting student bodies as “wealthy” and “privileged” and “elite” when it's such a blatant li#i remember a year ago a friend told me they can't fly home to hong kong for winter break because the plane tickets are too expensive#so they have to find temporary housing around the area#last quarter for a film doc class my film partner made a doc on a small group of marxist grad students from india discussing praxis#during a rally a few months ago in response to police presence the coalition invited palestinian students to speak about their experiences#and lead songs and read poems they wrote. these are STUDENTS. are they elitist too?#this is not to disregard my own personal privilege either.#this whole narrative's just to rationalize a lack of empathy to me. seeing a 19yo student get shot by a rubber bullet and your first#reaction is “HAW! HAW! bet richy rich didn't see THAT coming when she put on her terrorist hood!”#newsflash. these big uni campuses are HAUNTED by the violence of past protests and revolutions and police brutality. we know.#why do you think these coalitions have been making reinforced barricades at record speed
