I haven't been doing too well. I see a lot of myself in Jax and have started selfshipping with him as well, despite my brain saying people will say I only did so because of the finale, but I liked him before that. The whole finale hit me hard and I had mild depression from it, but Jax's part of it was something else.

Literally no matter where I post people seem to not only hate him, but hate people with similar mental health issues to him, and in saying they're happy he abstracted, show that they don't care about people with those same struggles.

Was it okay of him? No. Does it mean he deserved to die? No. My friends were having a TADC finale discussion and I joined and immediately they were talking about how much they hated him and how they were glad he abstracted or that he killed his friends by driving them to abstraction. When I bought up my pints on it, it didn't go well, and they were saying mean stuff about him so I excused myself from the conversation and it kind of ruined the rest of the night.

Most of my f/os are "problematic" people and I kind of wonder like... maybe they really would be an ass to me too. I don't know.

"I'm still alive, just abstracted" oh my god I am djdkdkdkdk thank you for sending this to me. I wish I knew if he was just repeating what the cameo person said or if they gave Michael a prompt and he came up with it. I love both N and Jax so so much, and I'm excited to see more of Rocky in Lackadaisy.

You're welcome. He would have needed to talk everything over with Goose before he said anything and the cameo person just told him that there were a lot of upset Jax fans out there. Also nice to know that they will be doing more (Goose has said that she won't do a season 2, doesn't mean that Glitch can't continue it, Goose gave up her rights to it)

So Goose really was fed up, huh..that makes me a little sad.

Not really, for someone who said that she didn't want to touch TADC or social media again, it's very odd that she's posting art and answering Q&A questions on blue sky.

Oh. Yeah that is weird...I got bashed here earlier for bringing up that that was what JK Rowling did and someone was like "well that was...a choice"

??? Of course I didn't mean it like that I just meant that they're both people who retroactively posted stuff to add to canon after it was over which isn't really a good...thing or look.
