everyone’s like wehhhhh why doesn’t doctor house gets suuuueeed! like my man. literally every patient he sees is someone that’s been trying to find a diagnosis for ages. i could live with a little medical malpractice if it were coming from someone ready to break into my home to look for allergens and not simply half heartedly listen to me before suggesting I lose weight and take ages of back and forth arguing to order a single test

“it’s medical malpractice” have u ever been a doctor? most medicine is malpractice. let the man limp around chewing vicodin doing 50 invasive tests please

Once Taub (derogatory) derisively said about a patient with unexplained chronic pain “7 doctors couldn’t find anything wrong with him, what does that mean?” and House replied without even thinking “it means they’re idiots” and proceed to work his ass off to diagnose the patient Taub wanted to write off as a faker or something. If a doctor had said that when that patient was ME, I wouldn’t dream of suing them in a million years

Concept: the old robot-with-Pinocchio-syndrome bit, except they don’t give a shit about art or love or anything like that; the thing they’re yearning for is something completely off the wall which would never occur to any reasonable human to think of as essential to the human condition, but which the robot is prepared to argue – rigorously, methodically, and at enormous length – is in fact the very heart of what it means to be human.

Some favourites from the notes:

  • Itching
  • Back pain
  • Being bad at video games
  • Freudian slips
  • Cracking open a cold one with the boys
  • Paying taxes
  • Evading taxes
  • The capacity to have cold toes so you have a legitimate reason to wear cool socks
  • Shaving
  • Schadenfreude
  • Seasonal allergies
  • Existential dread

it comes back to tax evasion in the end. it really do be like that

CLICK HERE FOR FULL SIZE!

since im in quarentine i decided i wanted to do something nice for my mutuals, so here it is, my own little corner of the internet. this was orignally meant to be a comic but considering this single panel took me like six hours to make and tomorrow quarentine ends i thought, you know what, im good enough with this

depicted here are some of my dear:

@drethelin, @sigmaleph, @tiffany-loves-broadway, @proudly-arrogant, @birdblogwhichisforbirds, @nostalgebraist, @itsbenedict and @argumate

wanted to include here but ran out of space or their avatars didnt lend themselves to being a character, @theaudientvoid, @funereal-disease, @ericvilas, @dagny-hashtaggart

there is probably plenty im missing as well and if you are seeing this and i didnt include you then that is probably because i dont see you very often in my dash and/or we just dont interact a lot.

!!!!!!!!!!!!
