    hey. HEY!

    they aren’t a shithead… they tried to connect with pomni… they tried to connect with 🐸…

    they distanced themselves cuz he felt that being vulnerable hurts peeps.

    they r trynna do the “we all fall into our architypes at some point” and atuff, they were trynna keep things fun while not connecting with peeps as much, keeping things light. they tried to entertain the viewers and stuff and they still tried to do those bits with peeps to have a bit of fun and stuff…

    they were…doing their best. they are >:( ! they are >;( ! they were.

      Still an asshole, coming from someone that had the same experience as Jax as a kid, I could have pushed people away and been an asshole but all I wanted to do was make others happy. Not drag people down. I still disassociated hard for years, ran away from my mom’s house, and dropped out of school. Went no contact.

      My ex had a friend that had a shitty childhood and would “make jokes” and do pranks but it was always at the cost of someone else.

        … u can make jokes and stuff and fall into an archetype and talk to the camera and not be evil…

        i just… got into defensive mode cuz Jax in the series is a lot like me pre… knowing.

          (Spoilers, obviously)

          All the TADC characters are

          Tap for spoiler

          digital snapshots of people, and in jax’s case she is a snapshot of someone on the worst day in their life

          so it’s really only natural that jax is kind of a pos. We’ve all been there and it isn’t really Jax’s fault for being stuck there.
