hey I'm the "just cry about it" anon, that confession was about someone making shipping posts "out of spite" and telling people who might be upset (because of the aphobia) to just cry about it, which was rich considering they wanted sympathy for themselves and their friends. Sorry I didn't clarify that in the last confession, I was angry and typed it up too fast. but it was just another example of these gross ship-brainrotted people being gross hypocrites.
OH THAT it felt familiar but I didn’t completely remember it

This is something I’ve noticed and was considering writing my own post on.
This has been prevalent in several animated series fandoms over the past few years. To almost no one’s surprise, these tend to be fandoms with high percentages of female/LGBTQ+ populations. There are a few variations: “Shipping completely ruined this show” (SVTFOE); “This fandom is toxic because of the shippers” (Steven Universe); “All this fandom cares about is shipping, what about the lore/worldbuilding?” (TOH, Amphibia); “Shipping/shippers are going to ruin this show/fandom” (any currently running series).
This is usually accompanied by strident declarations of how THEY don’t care about shipping, and THEY are superior because THEIR focus is on the other aspects of the show, and REAL FANS would care about everything else equally, and OBVIOUSLY the characters are “canonically just friends” and anyone who thinks otherwise is just deluded. And of course they have to insert themselves into discussions specifically *about* shipping just to virtue-signal about how much better they are for NOT shipping the characters.
(Quick side note: there is a separate conversation that can be had about the benefits of platonic friendship representation over alloromantic assumptions/focus, but in these cases it’s just being co-opted as a cudgel against {usually queer} shipping.)
Of course, you don’t see these same complaints about various “death battles” or “my blorbo can beat up your blorbo”, even though they’re just as head-canon-y as “my blorbo likes my other blorbo”. But fighting is “masculine” and therefore exempt from complaint (while people might not like it, they don’t come into those discussions and proclaim it’s “ruining the show” or “ruining the fandom”).
I’ve noticed a lot of this on various Reddit threads, which (in general) tend to skew male, and occasionally on Twitter (even though I try to avoid that cesspool whenever possible). Just a bunch of general toxicity against what is traditionally a more “feminine” interest.
The toxicity of Shipper Hate: Why hating on shippers is really really shitty
Anyone who’s been around in fandoms knows that shipping is, well, kind of a big deal. It’s also not uncommon within those fandoms to see “shipper hate.” Now, to be clear, I don’t mean “ship hate”, where shippers will flame each other for liking different ships. That’s also shitty, but it isn’t what I’m talking about. No, we’re going to talk about people who hate ALL shippers, ALL shipping, and the entire subset of fandom that surrounds it.
I’m sure you’ve seen it. “Shippers suck,” and “people shouldn’t reduce the story to just their pervy ships,” and “god, shippers are so fucking annoying.” There’s talk of how shipping, especially queer shipping, “ruins the character” and “ruins the story.” It seems to pop up in almost every fandom. But this isn’t just fan vs fan hate in the run of the mill kind of spiteful way. I propose to you that there is a level of misogyny and queerphobia at play with this kind of anti-shipper sentiment. 
Here’s why: the majority of shippers are young women, and a large proportion of them are LGBTQIAP+ (Not to say there aren’t straight men who ship, but they are a minority here). We ship for many reasons. Women are often socialized to relate, first and foremost, to characters and to romance after all (There’s a reason that many women get started off writing romance novels within the literary world, after all). And queer women are often in sore need of LGBTQIAP+ representation. As I have talked about on this blog many times, fanfiction and shipping communities were invaluable to me as I came to terms with my sexuality as a young bisexual woman. Shipping becomes a space where young women, both heterosexual and LGBTQIAP+ can come together to express and explore fandom, sexuality, representation creatively. We build a supportive community for yourselves and for fun. 
And then you have “shipping haters.” People who look at all these young women, exploring and expressing their sexuality, often with a level of queerness involved, and it makes them ANGRY. The queering of these narratives, and women openly expressing an interest in sexuality, and contributing to fandoms through the medium that they are socialized to use- the characters and romantic subplots: makes these people ANGRY. So they become hostile. They target these shippers, these creative, young, and often queer women for openly expressing themselves in fandom space, and they insult them, belittle them, mock them, and even harass them. 
What these people do, is they take a space that is SUPPOSED to be safe, and they turn it into a space to bully and demean women for daring to make their existence known, for engaging with the media in the ways they find meaningful, for queering the narrative in their desire for LGBTQIAP+ representation, for exploring sexuality on their own terms. 
The degree of “shipper hate” varies from fandom to fandom, of course. But it crops up, and every time it does, it feeds back into that loop of misogyny and queerphobia that targets young female fans and young queer fans. And that is messed up.

house md will always be remebered as the most insane thing ever broadcast because of how unabashedly feral everyone involved was.
a short collection of things that happen on the show, just off the top of my head, not even scratching the surface:
- house shoots a random dead body in the morgue and then sticks him in an mri machine, which pulls the bullet out of the dead guy’s head and destroys the machine, costing the hospital millions
- foreman gets bitten by a person with rabies
- chase kills an african dictator
- cameron steals drugs from a patient after possibly getting hiv from said patient
- house induces a migraine and then takes a drug made by his arch nemesis (who he’s been stalking for 25 years) to get the drug taken off the market. he then takes lsd (in the hospital, in the middle of a case) to cure the migraine.
- chase goes into anaphylaxis after doing body shots
- house stops an elevator so he can perform a cavity (vaginal) search on a teenage heart transplant patient who’s in cardiorespiratory arrest
- they give a neurosurgeon mushrooms to cure his food poisoning, then they stick him in an operating room. the neurosurgeon strips in front of a health board assessor.
- kutner dies for gay marriage
- house sets an autopsy room on fire while trying to juggle flaming bottles
- house gets recruited by the cia
- taub gets held at gun point after diagnosing a stripper with skin cancer
- in almost every single episode, the team breaks into multiple houses
- house fakes terminal brain cancer so he can get drugs implanted directly into the pleasure centre of his brain
- house cons us immigration to get his fake wife a green card. he also uses his fake wife’s ukrainian food truck to spy on people
- house tries to get wilson, his closet case boybestfriend, into bed every few episodes. every other sentence out of house’s mouth is about wanting to rail wilson.
- taub has a kid with his ex-wife, after they divorce, at the same time he has a kid with his 25 yo side piece. the kids’ names are sophie and sophia.
- house and wilson have a bet on who can hide a chicken in the hospital the longest without anyone finding out
- house tries to kill himself like 6 times and always fails (insulin shock, overdoses, electrocution, jumping off a building, cutting, etc)
- house fakes his death to get out of a prison sentence after violating his parole so he can live out his bi love story with his gay best friend who has 5 months to live

besides everybody knows that 'cannibalism' isn't the most potent symbol of codependent devotion between people. it's 'starting a band together' actually

Idgaf what anyone ships.
What I care about is that an entire show was ruined in order to force a Rhaenicent relationship. I care about how everything and everyone in HotD - every plot development, every character choice, the finale - is meant to bend around this stupid ship to the detriment of the entire series. How the purity of Rhaenyra and Alicent and of their fRiEnDshIp can't be sullied no matter what.
I don't usually check out interviews with writers but from the ones I've seen it's clear HotD writers are expecting props for this shit. But its 2024: I don't need to be patronized to about misogyny and patriarchy, and I don't need to squint for queer subtext or have random fanservice (which is what that Rhaenyra x Mysaria scene is) for queer representation.
Angling for a more complex relationship between Alicent and Rhaenyra is one thing. Using a book adaptation to create a Rhaenicent fanfic is another. And thats exactly what the writers did.

what your favourite dunmeshi ship says about you
farcille: you're classic, you make sense, you like to see the lesbians winning and also you're a bit of a monster fucker: you may or may not specifically have a wing kink
chilshi: you like your men hairy and fat, also you are not immune to panty-shot propaganda, your love language is acts of service
chilaios: you have a size kink
labru: you prefer mlm ships over any other pairing, you think character foils should fuck, you may be a sucker for blue eyes
laimar: your favourite trope is friends to lovers, also you like to see the bisexuals winning, you're also.. what the poets might call.... weird
marchil: your favourite trope is enemies to lovers, your love language is banter, and you're the kind of person who says 'i can fix him' far too often
kabumisu: your ship could burn down the world and violate the geneva convention and you would still call both of them babygirl, also you like angst
laios x monsters: you like tentacle porn

toxic shippers: we're just in our own corner having fun!
also toxic shippers: hey! how dare you sit in your own corner and have fun!
toxic shippers see other people not liking their ships as a personal attack, which is just plain unhealthy. Practice what you guys preach and just block us and move on. It's so easy when you tell others to do it, yet you can never seem to?

If you're a non-sharing selfshipper..
Imagine your f/o finding out about another person that says they're in love with them..
Imagine them scrunching up their face and laughing at the absurdity of it. Telling you that you're the only one they want, the only one they could ever imagine spending the rest of their life with, and no amount of admirers from afar will ever change how they feel about you, no matter how in love other people say they are no one will ever love understand them like you do!!! >:3
You're the only one they'll ever love ❤
Tumblr media
DNI pro.shippers!! This isn't for you >:(
Please don't send hate to any non-sharers!!

wilson is so obviously gay that i don’t even consider it a headcanon.
he meets women and he genuinely tries to be their friends. they pursue him, and he lets it happen. he gives them everything they want, and he never asks them to do anything for him. he doesn’t want them to even try meet any of his needs, because they can’t. then, when he realises that he’s unfulfilled, he lets other women pursue him and lets those relationships happen too, but he’s still unfulfilled. his wives and girlfriends all leave him, and he lets it happen without much of a fight because he’s not really attached to them. he canonically has problems getting it up.
he’s a completely passive non-participant in his relationships. the only person he ever fights to stay with is house. the only person he takes the initiative to leave is house. the only person he opens up to and has fun with and actually does things with is house. he actively ignores and tries to get away from his partners in favour of spending time with house. his wives blame house for breaking up their marriages and think house is a home wrecker. house constantly tries to come out as bisexual and wilson is completely in denial and just ignores it every time. he gets weirdly defensive when people assume that he and house are together.
rsl i’m sorry but you really did play the gayest little fucker in the history of television.
