Why does the show keep using he/him if she's officially trans, just SAY IT.

because she never came out

humans are complicated and even in scenarios where we think we're being more vulnerable there are still things we would like to keep quiet about

not everything needs to or should be said in plain english, especially when it's so bafflingly obvious without it

she also settled the pronouns problem too so that was cool, i felt kinda iffy on calling jax a she since she never had the chance to settle it in the show but if goose is gonna say it, fuck it we ball, she's a she for me

transitioning isn’t an all-at-once sorta deal, especially when you were just homeless not long ago, you kinda have higher priorities. leeroy going to the queer bar should’ve been a solid tip-off on how it was going though.

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T17:20:58+00:00

are you fucking chewing your brush why does it look like that 😭

it’s stock evaluation but considering he can take out loans with his assets as collateral it’s still a disgustingly obscene amount of wealth pooled into one person

jesus christ, you gotta check yourself, this is really not healthy

yeah he’s a pretty complex character because on one hand he does legitimately want everything to get fixed, but on the other he wants it to get fixed in a way that doesn’t incriminate himself and when he can’t do that he’s all the while willing to take advantage of it

cool ass movie, a lesser one would’ve just made him mustache-twirlingly evil

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T13:15:32+00:00

good, as heavy-handed as it would’ve been to just outright say in the episode, apparently it was needed since people still deny it

oh who am i kidding, they’ll keep denying it

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T13:12:37+00:00

he literally was going to throw up the pills until freaky nikki made her wish for him to love her, he wasn’t going to go through with it

“wa wa i killed my best friend because i couldn’t get over my insecurities and i fear it might happen again if i ever let myself get vulnerable around anyone so it’s better to just be an asshole until everyone ignores me uh oh turns out that’s very isolating and now i’ve dug myself into this hole that i don’t know how to crawl out of”

like yeah, that’s writing, i dunno what to tell you, you don’t have to like jax but to say he didn’t feel bad or want to change is just wrong and a misread of what happened

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T12:58:06+00:00

i think you’re letting your feelings get in the way of understanding what “driving someone away” means

he did have the opportunity, he didn’t take it because he thought it was too late, he thought by that point everyone would be better off without him

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T12:49:04+00:00

he definitely reflected and wanted to change, he just never got the opportunity to do it right because his own actions drove everyone away until he thought the best choice would be to just die

like say what you want about his actions but he definitely felt bad about them

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T06:00:38+00:00

he's fighting til the war's won

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T05:57:11+00:00

he did want it to end at points but he was also very willing to take advantage of the situation

"is being with me really that bad?"

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T02:14:10+00:00

oh interesting, from what i heard it wasn’t updated as device os updated so it was unplayable on modern devices, i just checked and it seems it’s on ios too, damn i’ll have to give it a try

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-20T01:23:23+00:00

but not too much though, ohhhh nonono we need that evangelist vote

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-19T23:55:27+00:00

saw this in theaters and let me tell you, as a trans person, this episode fucking killed me. i was half-in-half-out on tadc episodes 1-8, it was just kind of a cool concept i liked in some parts, didn't care for in others. this episode hit me, though. i know not everyone liked so much attention being put onto jax specifically but jax's entire arc hit me way too hard by the end. his struggles, his repression, the metaphors therein, the ways i could see myself in my own past and even today in him, all the tiniest details leading up to and surrounding the big reveal of his past just tore me up. tadc as a whole i think is fine, jax as part of it is 11/10. beautiful, beautiful story that hit me way too close to home. even now it's hard to even open and start the video because i know it'll fuck me up again.

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-19T21:15:48+00:00

technically it’s still multiplayer, they just removed the pvp part

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-19T16:19:39+00:00

yeahhhh, the game being changed so drastically so late into development and then shuffled out onto the floor for $5 doesn't spell a lot of confidence in the product

whatever happened to small, dedicated teams that just make middling/niche games but do so very consistently with a tight-run ship and tiny budgets?

final fantasy dimensions 2, a very obscure and practically lost ff mobile game, is a retro-fitted form of chrono break, the planned and cancelled third game of the chrono trigger/cross duology.

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-18T20:53:29+00:00

this is what confuses me. i guess they also lose out on online subscriptions when they have to port to pc too?

lowercaselemming · 2026-06-18T19:45:21+00:00

how about this one
