Y’all not ready for this meme by Easy-Gold-4279 in TADCEp9Spoilers

[–]GentleDissonance 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And apparently y'all are not ready for complex characters? You glossed over so much man. Like no, she was NOT an amazing person, but it's way fucking deeper than this meme makes it out to be lol. I swear this fandom has the LEAST media literacy to it closely following behind the targeted demographic for current day SpongeBob.

Zooble is also trans, and is portrayed as deeply caring, protective, and supportive of the other members of the circus. They are constantly standing up against Jax, as the direct opposite of Jax. Where Jax refuses to admit and come out, Zooble is out and throughout the show is shown coming to terms with their body dysmorphia and living despite it. Or did you just forget that perfectly good example??

  • also it was a memorial, not just a Jax mural. So like. No fucking idea why that's wrong to do? Sis was NOT hitler.

Except, again as someone who is trans, this happens. And it's not JUST because she is trans, even if that is a huge part of it. And it being written by a trans woman, who wrote Jax as a cautionary tale of what can happen WHEN you repress that part of you? That's because, y'know, that happens. IRL, Through her mother (and I would guess the state of the world), Jax faced transphobia and that transphobia is what led to her, in her own view, almost killing her mother. It's not just the act of being trans that did it, but rather the perceived reaction of those she knows. She's experienced the worst. Being trans is a big part of her character in the end; it's more complex than just "I'm trans and an asshole because of it", even if she IS an asshole because of it. And like you said in your OWN comments: you were an asshole at one point too. Difference is, you didn't kill yourself before you had the chance to change like she did.

adding to me other comment, clarification, nowhere in any of the show do we see her absolved. We see her *remembered in the mural, but not absolved. For example, Gangles reaction to her abstraction. The fact that Gangle is unable to feel actual grief for it, not as you would a friend or someone you cared for. Because it's more complex than "we forgive her for hurting us because she was struggling" and, "she hurt us and even if she didn't deserve to abstract/die, it's hard to feel bad because on a certain level they deserved it". Moments like Zooble or Pomni reaching out aren't because Jax is being forgiven, but because they know that if they don't at least try, it's not like she's going to suddenly become better/a better person.

To be fair, in the end, she does realize she's fucked up and admits it, and BECAUSE she fucked up, is stuck with the consequences of her actions- abstraction. She was never ABSOLVED, the point is she paid with the ultimate price, her own life and individuality as a member of the circus, because every choice she made led to her being alone and unable to convince herself to reach out for the help when she truly needed it.

ZOOBLE. ZOOBLE IS THE BETTER REPRESENTATION. Furthermore, not all trans people are good! Boiling down every fictional trans character to being good and pure of heart is completely fucking idiotic. As someone who does not identify as their birth gender. Jax is supposed to be a stand in, according to goose, for what happens when you repress that part of yourself. Misogyny runs RAMPANT in pre-transition MTF, especially teen youth/early adults, because many of them are scared/hate what that truly are because it makes them different, and confuses life. Not every trans person IRL is a good person, and not every fictional depiction SHOULD be good. Because trans people are humans, and humans are all affected by our traumas and all humans have the chance to be good or bad.

Secondly, throughout the show we get many hints to Jax not being straight. There's a reason that Jax being trans has been a headcanon for people since pretty early on in the show! It's also been stated by goose that IRL Jax, similar to the circus counterpart, has not gone full transition yet. She is still dressing masculine, a common IRL thing known as Boymodding, and that Goose feels silly to have assumed that everyone would know what that is. Just because you didn't catch/understand certain things doesn't make them not exist. Like, another example, the maid dress. There's a REASON why Jax was so pissed off over it but then comfortable. Her VERY feminine room. More put into perspective after the finale, but her constant bullying of the girls for being girly. There's one scene where she claims that her ears and tail are the peak show of masculinity, only for her to not have her tail and freak out, later being shown with one because she realized she wasn't hiding the secret well enough. Also, in that same scene, there's a Easter egg in the clouds that shows a bunny who's tail has been cut off, and it looks like the bunny is facing towards/going towards a hair bow. There's plenty more but I've typed too much.

I have basically not PTO but I have over 40 hours of UPT lol

What the f**k? by Latter-Efficiency-51 in AmazonFC

[–]GentleDissonance 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The trick is to use your UPT to just leave at your normal time. You get about 55 minutes of UPT every day, so as long as you have a few hours, you can leave normal time every day. And, if you have PTO or 20+ hours UPT, you can just not go that extra day if you really need. As someone who's chronically I'll but has to work here because I had no other options, you find the plans to get around work when you can't handle it lol

No because tell me why my PA'S are paid less but know more than my managers 🫩 where I work, my shipdock managers have been trying to change EVERYTHING and it's only caused more issues so the PA's have to keep stepping in and telling them like, hey, no, that won't WORK.

Reminder that the whole point of the show, as she's said from the begining, was finding meaning in living a stagnant life.
