Really tired of seeing people act like trans woman jax was "obvious if you have media literacy 🙄" and talking down to people who didn't get it. It wasn't obvious. It wasn't even obvious to me, a trans person who was actively looking for the signs because I already heard it was "confirmed" before seeing the last episode. It wasn't even obvious to my trans fem wife who thought they were trying to hint that he was actually a trans man considering LEEROY was presented as a man. They were extremely cowardly with the hints. The most obvious one was when jax told ribbit about his macho dad and was cagey about what he had told his mom to make her mock him. Everyone talks about the bow thing like that was great rep and not the most vague confirmation. That's not even considering the fact that "bow on head = girl" is just straight up gender essentialism.

So if Caine and Kinger finally have a father-son relationship… does that mean Kinger calls him by his first name, all three middle names, and last name when he’s about to unleash the full force of his parental wrath

The way he's holding them here makes me feel conflicted. Like, this scene is terrifying and I can't imagine what's it like to be on a receiving end of it but... just look at it.

- he's holding Zooble in a way so that their parts don't fall out

- he's not squeezing Gangle so that her fragile ribbons don't get tangled

- he's not putting too much pressure on Ragatha so that she doesn't get ripped apart

- he's only holding Pomni and Jax firmly because their bodies are solid and rubbery

And this scene is right after the torture too. You would think he would be more violent, but no. He wanted to hurt them, not break them.

Caine wanted them to listen. And because they never did, he made them feel what he felt when they poked at his biggest fears and insecurities.

I guess what I meant to say is - even when at his worst, there was still something considerate in him. Something resembling the real him and not the angry monster he'd become.
