Bvddies: BT is still queerbaiting bc Buck continues to identify as straight

Oliver Stark logging onto IG on Bisexual Day: it's so great i get to play BISEXUAL MAN Evan Buckley it's an honour to play a CANON BISEXUAL CHARACTER and we need more bisexual representation like EXPLICITLY BISEXUAL MAN EVAN BUCKLEY

[pigeonxp]

bro ur telling me some ppl saw the shooting scene, saw buck scream and crawl under a ladder truck and drag eddie out from under it, and thought "they arent meant to be together". ur telling me ppl saw the LIGHTNING STRIKE scene, where eddie climbs up the ladder screaming for buck, tries to DEFY GRAVITY and LIFT BUCK UP, and ends up PUSHING BOBBY OUT OF THE WAY to get to buck, told the doctors to do more than their best, and then counted and remembered exactly how much time, to the second, that he had to live in a world without buck, and they THINK THAT BUCK AND EDDIE DONT BELONG TOGETHER. LITERALLY YOUVE GOT TO BE WATCHING SELECTIVELY

[jackwhiteprophetic]

Have we ever thought about how Tommy and Eddie are literally shown playing on the same team in 7x04. They’re literally “on the same team” and they “have a lot in common” and they both “love to watch half-naked men pummel each other”.

Sleeping is REALLY hard when you have PTSD nightmares constantly, even though you are prescribed a lot of special anti-nightmare medication. ):

[wowevenmoreloveonearth]

Conspiracy theory: the reason why eddie is in every bt 2.0 scene is actually just because oliver refused to be in a scene alone with that man and needs ryan there as emotional support

[livinces]

Once again, I don't go to 911 like that, but I have learned that B*ddie shippers are the demons of the fandom and I now hate their ship because of them, HOLY SHIT.

[chronicowboy]

eddie coming in all excited to see his best friend and nerd out over their costumes but instead he walks in on irritated clipboard buck THEN has to watch buck snap out of it for a moment to greet tommy all happy and huggy. my poor man </3

[buckley-diaztruther]

AND ACTUALLY ANOTJER THING ABOUT JOSHS SPEECH THAT HAS ME UPSET

he talks about pre and post glee as if buck wasn't around in the pre glee era. like buck was there, would have been in high school when it started so like. he very much existed in pre-glee culture even if he wasn't aware of his sexuality yet. he was still a bisexual kid growing up in a society that didn't tolerate that shit and he repressed it so hard that he hid it from himself. probably also did a lot of stupid things as a young adult to make up for it too, even if he didn't fully understand why.

buck literally acted like a dog marking his territory all over the firehouse because he was so attracted to eddie that he thought it was anger and jealousy.

buck was a bisexual at 15 and 26 and 33 and Josh was right to say that people did and do a lot of things to protect themselves in the closet that in retrospect kinda suck. such as forcing yourself to maintain a long term romantic relationship with a woman that you aren't actually in love with because it's what you think you're supposed to do.

but he acted like buck was a literal infant (baby gay jokes are fun until they cross the line into condescending which is josh and Tommy's entire MO w buck ig). is it bc tommy is twice bucks age??? bc that's a whole other can of worms.

buck was more than valid for worrying about the implications of tommy being someone that broke Abbys heart, even if he did need to understand the nuance it doesn't change the fact that knowing you dated the same woman is kind of a mind fuck and enough to ruin a relationship with as poor of a foundation as they had.

ok how do I block tags on mobile because I'm lowkey sick of the 911 shipping war posts

[maydaydiaz]

happy 8x06 week guys, also known as the week eddie gets his first foot out that closet jail. the walls are glass, the locks have been broken off and we’re finally getting him out

[pigeonxp]

ok now that bt is FINALLY bones, all i really have to say is fuck yall for real. there are some of yall that arent that bad, but the overwhelming majority of you guys are actually fucking awful. i have had twitter mutuals be harassed by yall, i have had friends harassed, ive seen people i dont even follow being called horrific things and insulting their appearances, and so so much more. one thing that really sticks out is the blatant misogyny that some of you guys present. the amount of men that have gone online and confidently called women bitches and sluts and whores and cunts and hoes is genuinely fucking deranged, and i hope you all know that. there have been bt stans in my replies and my inbox and in my business, telling me that IM in the wrong for stating my opinions on the weird ass shit theyve been doing, telling me that they "dont feel welcome" in this fandom, and that they feel like this fandom is toxic and etc etc etc etc I DONT CARE BRO. i have said it once and ill say it again and again. some of you guys are just not meant to be in fandom spaces. there are block buttons for a reason. you can block people and tags and literally everything under the sun but you continue to SEEK OUT shit that makes you mad or that you dont agree with just so you can hate on the OPs in their replies. you dont seem to understand that people can have opinions on what characters they like and what ships they enjoy, and that other people have the right to criticize them. i am NOT sorry and i will NOT apologize for how i may have reacted. i do NOT feel bad for you. we all told you that this wasnt going to last, the showeunner said it wasnt going to last. the ACTOR said it wasnt going to last. and instead of using critical thinking skills and media literacy training, you got tattoos for this ship, you spent hundreds of dollars on cameos from a nepo baby, and you spent days of your lives hating on and harassing people over a FICTIONAL TV SHOW. instead of being upset at LFJR for leading yall on, you attacked oliver stark for being "biphobic"??@?!?!??!!??!÷*×(!&×,@ for having an opinion on his own character, especially after he spent time becoming genuinely one of the biggest bisexual allies i have ever seen. after he told reporters that he was planning on playing buck as bi anyway, after he made post after post saying how excited he was for bucks storyline, and after he advocated for this character he loves so dearly. you jumped down his throat for no reason. i have absolutely no sympathy for you. i really do hope you follow lfjr back to SWAT and i truly hope he gets every single line and every single scene just to keep him off of my fucking screen. 🫶

[stolenkissesdiaz]

there’s something so interesting how buck and eddie reacted to tommy coming into the space of the buck and eddie thing. buck crashed tf out when eddie was hanging out with tommy bc like how dare u get along so well with another guy. and chris likes him too? fuck u dude i’m going to accidentally hurt u bc ur not paying attention to me in the way i want and im scared ur gonna replace me. eddie on the other hand was like oh ur dating buck? cool, well im gonna be a bit more bitchy to you but ur not going to notice bc i’ve perfected my craft over the years! like eddie was not threatened at all which is so funny bc oh? this is sm better than if u were jealous? ur so sure about ur place in bucks life that even if he dates men you know ur the most important one regardless? oh. right. cool.

I know I've said it before, but I think this upcoming episode is going to be so interesting, even if we don't get Queer Eddie OR BT Bones (neither of which I'm fully convinced are going to happen on Thursday), & it's really for this one interesting phrase that Ryan & Oliver have both used.

They have both mentioned "rose-colored glasses" when it comes to Tommy & Shannon, and I would argue that they each have to reckon with these relationships before we can have any movement towards Buddie.

Eddie thinks that Shannon was the love of his life, that he failed her and has to carry that guilt with him for the rest of his life. I believe that Eddie placing Shannon on a pedestal is partially what's stopping him from realizing his queerness (along with the catholic guilt and repression, but a lot of that is also tied up in Shannon & their failed marriage.)

Buck's convinced that his big feelings last season were all about Tommy, and I'm not saying that some of them weren't, but I don't think it'd be too far of a stretch to say that he figures that he's in this relationship now and that obviously everything is fine now. He figured out this part of himself and he's dating a man and that means everything is Fine and he absolutely does not need to do any further digging or searching or learning, despite the fact that he and Tommy don't really seem to like each other all that much, nor do they seem to be all that compatible.

Buck has to reckon with the fact that realizing his bisexuality and immediately jumping into a relationship with a man that he wasn't even sure he wanted (his speech at the coffee date) might not be the solution to all the problems he's had, and Eddie has to deal with the fact that Shannon was not perfect, that what she did was not the same as what he did, that she's responsible for her own actions and that this romanticized vision he has clung to of their lives is not real and is not consistent with the actual relationship that they had.

There's a Divorce Arc this episode - which I'm begging does something with Eddie - and an uncomfortable truth learned about Tommy's past; it's not completely out of left field to assume that the Rose-Colored Glasses come off this episode.

And the fact that it's happening for them BOTH, at the same time? In the relationships that I think are the biggest obstacles to them realizing/accepting their feelings for each other???

I'm never fully convinced they're actually going to go there with these 2, but it will be SO interesting to see how this episode plays out, regardless.

buck is a father figure to chris like bobby is to may and harry and not like bobby is to himself.

let me explain, bobby a better father than buckley dad (forgot his name) ever was to buck, even meeting him after he was grown the love and support he offers buck never changes, and when it does it comes from the misguided place of trying to protect buck from being in harms way (the blood thiners arc). in a eay he never had from the buckley parents, thr love? the support? the understanding? was never there.

but to may and harry? they had a great dad, michael, who loved them, supported them constantly that don't change. with bobby they have a second dad, who safe, caring, loves them as his own but would never try to take the place as dad to them. who tells may she didn't have to lie when she calls him dad to a paramedic.

both may and harry have called bobby dad before on the show in specific scenes/ moments and regardless of that call him bobby regularly.

thats the way buck is a father figure to chris. the way bobby is to may and harry. chris would never consider buck more of a father to him than eddie. yes eddie had failed as a parent sometimes but that dont make him a bad parent, hes human not perfect he has flaws, but he loves chris enough to never stop trying.

this was brought to you by random thoughts on how much I hate and people in the fandom treat buck as a better parent than eddie or that chris would choose him over eddie
