yes i am thinking about the c word again. this episode is my roman empire. but right now i’m specifically thinking about how house literally goes against his nature for wilson. cuddy says “everything you’ve ever done is to avoid pain — drugs, sarcasm, keeping everybody at arm’s length so no one can hurt you” yet he gives wilson the rest of his vicodin, willingly detoxes, so wilson can be in less pain before he throws them up again. house is rational; in his book in any other situation, this would be a stupid decision. it wouldn’t cause much relief to wilson and would deprive house of a lot of it. it’s completely irrational. i’d wager that house would mock it in anyone else. but yet he does it anyway for wilson.

in my humble opinion (with no nuance) house is a good person, but, nonetheless, he will defy that and hurt people if it will cause him less pain. nobody likes pain, of course, but house has experienced so much of it from such a young age, an issue only compounded by his infarction, that (while he does subconsciously inflict it on himself as punishment because said pain from a young age made him think it is necessary because it made him think there is something broken in him that needs to be violently fixed — i could talk for hours about how much i hate john house) he will go to any lengths to avoid it. it is a pattern we see time and time and time again. house constantly hurts others, himself, as long as it can possibly lessen some potential short- or long-term pain.

but then he gives up his vicodin for wilson. he endures the pain, not just of his leg without painkillers but also of detox, for wilson. cuddy says “you’ll choose yourself over everybody else over and over again, because that's just who you are” and yet house chooses wilson. he gives wilson the last of his vicodin. he’s willing to let wilson die on his couch because it’s what wilson wants. he endures wilson saying he should be the one with cancer. he accepts that wilson will die and lets him go the way he wants. he accepts that he will never be able to go back to practicing medicine, will probably cut his own life short as well, and goes off with wilson for his last five months. he literally transcends his own nature, his base instincts from his childhood, for wilson. and if that isn’t incredibly poetic then i don’t know what is.

We’d leave,

And we’d laugh at the ghosts of our fears,

We were gods.

We were kids.

Hi! Jewish anti Zionist here! Happy Chanukkah to fellow Jews, and for any other Jewish anti Zionists who feel kind of alone right now, you’re beautiful, you’re valid, and I see you and I love you! Keep fighting the good fight!

Some awesome Jewish anti-Zionist, pro-human-rights, anti-genocide, pro-Palestine organizations and/or news sources:

Jewish currents (a fave of mine. They also run a podcast called “on the nose” and give free subscriptions to incarcerated people).

International Jewish anti-Zionist network (IJAN).

Jewish voice for peace.

It is our duty and our privilege as Jews to stand for the right thing, and to question authority and to stand against injustice, even if that injustice is being perpetrated by our own people! I know were raised on the propaganda that Israel is this holy symbol of our people, but it’s not! It’s a nation, whose creation can be credited largely to anti-semitism and British colonialism, and it’s run by people, and those people are corrupt! To be Jewish is to question even G-d, so why shouldn’t we question this nation that is committing atrocities?! We should be standing against genocide as a people who have so often been victims to it, but instead, people who call themselves Jews are perpetuating it!

We are a proud diaspora people who should stand for what is right and just, as so many of us always have! Question, and fight for the rights of the oppressed! Even if our own people are the oppressors, we are not standing up to the principles and morals of our culture if we do not stand against these injustices

Yeah!!!
