Hello, I am Mango, and this is a side blog for talking about media (sometimes positive, sometimes negative)

Media ( will add more later on)

Tadc

Dispatch

I'm not the best at analysis, but I really like sharing my thoughts about media I like

[indigoartistrulu2004]

'Jax it complex you just hate him duo lack of media literacy.'

My honest reaction:

[indigoartistrulu2004]

Tadc spoilers

Jax it abusive to Pomni too , he throw her out a moving truck , keeps dismissing her through out the series as a kid , gaslight it her , kept bullying and touching her despite seeing she hates it and fantasy choking her if Ragatha,aka the person who always come to her defense abstract it.

Only reson it not taken as seriously it because Pomni isn't allow to react to his abuse like Ragatha,Gangle and Zooble are.

Because she beat him up in ep 6.

thet means she's a strong girlboss she isn't abused .

The fandom doesn't care thet he treats her like shit they had a bit of fun in ep 6 thet means he has a soft spot for her.

Ignore all he did to her ,how he only sees her as a replacement for Ribbit doesn't see her as a human for the majority of the series.

They hug in the finale and thet all thet matters to them they can t achnolge there not healthy and thet it ok to explore unhealthy realnships

Not even Gooseworx cared to explore her character reacting to the abuse ,just making her want to fix him with no reson

Doodles I did in the process of making my animatic :)

They're messy but I love them. Very uninhibited.

So don't get me wrong I absolutely love slandering Jax but every time I see a Jax slander video on tiktok the comment section is always almost full of that one ai generated fat Jax image to make fun of him and it kinda rubs me the wrong way as someone who is fat

Things for my ep 9 rewrite that I’m changing:

Ribbit doesn’t exist and is replaced with Ragatha because her and Jax used to be friends yet that was untouched in the show (Rags doesn’t abstract, Jax and her just stop being friends)

Caine is truly gone, he doesn’t come back.

Jax doesn’t abstract, Pomni does.

Jax being trans is a lot more clear, he will eventually be referred to as she/her only further into the story.

The abstractions will be properly dealt with and memorialized, not in an aquarium.

Kinger will have amnesia/short term memory loss, he can’t remember anything recent but can remember further into the past.

Things I won’t be changing:

Kaufmo abstracts, still happens when the pilot takes place.

The fact that each member is a brain scan.

Events of previous episodes (As of now I don’t plan on rewriting the whole series)

Gangle and Zooble’s romantic relationship will still exist (not just as a sex joke)

That’s all I can think of right now, I’m probably going to try making an Ao3 account later today. Lord knows if it will get approved (hope it does) because my first two chapters (granted they are shorter) are done.

[criticalmangoyaps]

So does anyone have any fanfic recs that are actually Pomni-centric because most of the Pomni-centric tagged fics I find are almost always about Jax

[insomniacrori]

Even more rnadom memes:

Also, as a treat:

Ancient art where I used old colour palette. These were sititng in my folder for... I think 4 month

Yikes

[garlicnoodle1]

Why do Pomni and Caine have more interactions in the merch ads than the entire show? This dynamic is so good, why have Goose and GLITCH been sleeping on them 🥀

[candy-heart-brew]

Actually, y'know what? In hindsight, I'm glad that Bunnydoll and Showtime went ignored by the show. I shudder to think what gooner fantasies Goose might've projected onto them had she actually cared...

[lucasandryawaifu]

It's crazy that after Golem launched Robert on the chairs (by accident?), he's either expelled from the room or thrown a chair at him, but Invisigal can punch Robert on the first day and Chase at the party, and get no consequence.

Golem is younger than her and was lonely since his birth and was probably treated all his life like a freak of nature. So why he doesn't get the same indulgence as her?

[angelsunna]

Ep 8: Yes Jax, we all care for you so much and we’re all here for you. You can be an ass, but you’re our—RAGATHA. Ragatha what are you doing. Fuck off. Get back in the hole. Fuuuuuck you Ragatha

[digitallesbians]

Jax whenever another character gets 0.00001 seconds of screentime

[mad-not-disappointed]

Gooseworx: Pomni and Jax are the main characters!

Jax: has an entire tragic backstory about losing his friends, is implied to have gotten into some kind of car accident in real life, is scared of vulnerability, has trypophobia, has some form of gender dysphoria/insecurities, etc etc

Pomni: uhhhh she's *flips through pages of random jobs* an accountant? and she makes videos on youtube.

[fhazel27]

Jax choking Pomni was just an intrusive thought, he didn’t really want to do it!!!!1!!1… well excuse me I was confused because he shot Ragatha six times

[indigoartistrulu2004]

Ribbit 🫱🏽🫲🏻 Ragatha

-Getting hate from Jax stans for the crime of being a bit annoying or bullshit they made up in there head to be mad about -

[indigoartistrulu2004]

'You critise everyone but Ragatha'

Ragatha represents everything wrong with this show, because her doing nothing wrong ever proves Goose isn't capable of writing an messy abused victim thet isn't Jax.

Ragatha gets sideline, has the littlest of solo merch despite being imply a protag together with Jax and Pomni in the pilot and people in the fandom only care about who's shes ship with rather thet explore her abuse.

I don't criticise her because she cannon in show did nothing wrong, I can do it with everyone but her thet how much of a shit Goose give about her.

You'd think Jax hatred for her would have a cool backstory maybe Ragatha use to be more condescending to Jax or did something to her but no...flashback reveal she did nothing but be kind to Jax .

No exploration of having pararels with Jax mom nothing.They weren t even frends

I don't get people who hate her because the biggest issue with Ragatha it thet she did nothing wrong
