Am I allowed to sexualize the puppet from project hail mary or do I have to wack it to Ryan Gosling because I will if I have to but frankly I'd rather have that alien skittering all over me like a sexy bug. Fuuuck they call him rocky because he make my rock hard

I take a break from reading Project Hail Mary to see this in my notifications 💔

As much as I love TADC, there were quite a few continuity errors throughout the show that just really peeve me. The one thats really pissed me off was in the last episode during the Jax mind sequence. While Pomni is going through the doors to see Jaxs masks, SHE GOES INTO A DOOR TWICE, AND SKIPS A DOOR ENTIRELY!!

She starts at the door on the bottom left, the one across from the locked door. She then goes to the door on the top left, after that she approaches the locked door, tried to open it, then goes back to the top left door.

Anyway, really I think thats the worst thing I have to say about the last episode. Im kind of sad to see the show over 😞

[bi-shop]

my problem with tadc overall is that It doesn't know what it wants to be. its marketing made it come across as a psychological horror, and while i'll say that the show has its moments of psychological horror, i can't say that i am really feeling it the entire show. it's said to explore each character and their traumas, but it doesn't really sufficiently explore characters that aren't named jax. it has set up a lot of things for the Digital Circus setting itself but it doesn't do much with it.

like, i don't really need the setting to be more developed and explored, it is just a backdrop for the characters at the end of the day. but holy chekhov's gun if we're Never going to explore the digital lake or carnival i would suggest just making them Blank forests. i'd actually think it would exemplify the Isolation in their situation since it would be a constant reminder that they're trapped In The Circus.

what makes a lot of the arguments Against tadc's writing appalling to me is that the defense with the other characters' lack of development and focus is that they would be 'insubstantial'. it shows that the only way the problem of making sure each character 'has development' is through cuts... instead of, well, doing rewrites.

and that's the Thing. the show at times genuinely feels like a first draft, something that was written and not revised. and considering that i know that gooseworx had revised the dialogue sometime after episode 2's release... i don't think that's good! it still has clutter that is typical of the first draft, with scenes that feel Pointless and threads that go nowhere. it's in Desperate need of a second draft.

i hate that i am constantly bringing up ragatha when it comes to my criticisms since zooble definitely has it the worst, but she is legitimately the poster child of these writing problems — if you cared about her as a character, it wouldn't be hard to see the cracks.

Okay I fear some of us are missing the point.

Yes there was a lot of misogyny and transphobia in jax's inner thoughts. It's because he has a lot of internalized misogyny and transphobia that he needs to work through. It wasn't character assassination.

Jax grew up in an environment where masculinity was violent and hated, and if he was anything less then a man then he was shamed and punished. He was forced into the shadow of his father and any choice he made (embrace it or fight it) was punished. His inner selves reflected that.

You had the trans femme side that couldn't let people know the truth, that she enjoyed being in the dress, in fear of ridicule. Because she never had a safe place to come out, because if she was less then a man she would be punished.

You had the sexist side that objectified women because that's what a man is supposed to do. That's what Jax is supposed to be. If he wasn't then he was punished by his mother. That was the part he was expected to play in the society that he grew up in.

Then there's the soft part that plays the piano. The closest to the real Jax, the one who gives Pomni the key, the one who is still chained. They're softer, kinder, and they're abused by the other sides of Jax. They aren't allowed a voice, just there to provide entertainment to the others.

They're all a part of Jax because Jax has things they need to work through. Because Jax is not a perfect character, they have trauma, they've suffered abuse, and that's how the abuse manifested. It's not character assassination because we've seen these sides throughout the series. Jax in the maid costume during the softball adventure. Telling Gangle that she's "supposed to be submissive and agreeable" during the candie adventure. It's all been there, these are just those facets played up to the extremes.

GTA VI pre-orders are starting next week -- maybe Todd Howard will see this and get inspired to release TES VI

[blueberriespuddin]

Lwky the among us show is really good, like, absurdly good for a show based on a game with no actual lore to it. Anyway Lime was the best character

Was in the Hospital all night, ex wife drove me home. I told her what happened and she just sighed. She said it was weird that Kermit put a cigarette out directly on my Hole and I reassured her it was done at my request and with my enthusiastic consent! But she shook her head and said thats not what was weird about it.

"How was he able to do that? Like pick up the cigarette and move it on his own?"

I kind of laughed because I wasn't sure what she meant, but she cut me off

"He didn't used to move by himself, did he?"

I wasn't sure what to say to that.

Kermit's been quiet since I got home

i had a dream there was a new episode of digital circus where Gangle was split into new "emotional variants" of herself but one was just a photo-realisitc horse and it was never explained why.
