i have been thinking a long time about what jax's lamppost could represent and i have finally developed a bit of a theory surrounding it
of course there's the more obvious stuff like it being a reference to i saw the tv glow, though i haven't watched it so i can't say much in that regard,
and then the fact that jax was running away from home, on the streets, soon before she came to the circus. and multiple lampposts can be seen here
and. what i believe is. that the lamppost represents jax boxing herself in. rejecting herself, and not opening up to others. because that's what lamps do, they constrain light
and i believe this serves as a contrast to the stars we see throughout tadc.
the VERY first time jax genuinely opens up in the entire show, and actually expresses her true feelings about something, is during the stargazing adventure, where she tells pomni about how she actually feels about gangle and then also about ragatha. incidentally, there are also lampposts, shut off, in the background when she's talking about gangle here.
i think the stars represent the opposite thing that the lamppost does. i think the stars represent openness. stars are huge and burn openly and freely, with nothing restricting them. Jax is afraid to open her lamppost, to burn wholly and authentically, and so she keeps herself closed in.
here, ribbit kaufy and jax are in the same stargazing location as in untitled,
and then we see stars in the background of this adventure with ribbit and kaufmo,
but, the MAIN part i wanna talk about that i think is the strongest argument for this theory is of course the scene in ribbit's room.
their room is CLOAKED in stars, and it's the scene where jax opens up the most in the entire show by far.
here, i think it's meaningful how during + after jax is opening up, we literally see the stars covering her body since the stars are coming from a projector, and i just think thats really cool.
as well as this scene here, when ribbit places her bow on jax's head and we see ribbit from jax's perspective and she's just like. Genuinely glowing. with the star projector directly behind her. because she is who jax trusted the most, and the first person she's probably ever felt comfortable opening up to to this degree.
jax is Finally starting to let herself be vulnerable, let herself be authentic, let herself be the star that she is inside. but the scene is short lived, she throws the bow onto the ground, and crawls back into her shell to never leave again. ie, what the lamppost represents
i also want to mention that lampposts block out stars. enough of them cause light pollution, and prevent you from being able to see the cosmos, easily shown in jax's running away clip. (not a single star to be seen, lol)
and jax keeps clinging ON to that lamppost, unable to let go of it. unable to let go of that night she ran away. unable to let go of her trauma and unhealthy coping mechanisms, unable to stop fearing vulnerability. it's why she abstracts. she refuses to let go of the things that hurt her, she refuses to accept the connection and love that the other humans offer to her time and time again

thinking,, i think the blue teapot symbol that appears repeatedly throughout tadc represents humanity and connection since the main first time it appears is in the gummigoo pomni scene, where they're flying through the weird void place after pomni offers gummigoo to join the circus and that he can be somebody real there, and that she doesnt want anyone to feel like theyre nothing, etc, all while "somebody real" plays in the background
i think itd be cool if thats why a blue teapot is here when pomni and jax are working together to shoot the others and whatnot, because here is when they're getting closer and jax is slowly and unknowingly letting down her walls (before she puts them all right back up at the end of the episode🥀). pomni is the first person she's let herself connect with since ribbit's abstraction

i have been thinking about it. for a long long time. and i think i finally understand what the motif with jax's keys is all about. to me i think the fact that jax has so many keys represents how he keeps himself locked away, under tons and tons of walls and barriers and falsities, so no one sees who he truly is. i think this is why he has always had so many keys throughout the show
spoilers ::
and. im thinking about how in the finale we learn that jax can play the piano, and what do pianos have? KEYS. and the piano jax is the one who gives pomni the key to finally learn about the real jax. to show how jax is finally letting down his walls, all his misleading doors, and showing how he *does* want to be able to be vulnerable, he always has wanted to, he's just always smothered that
i think that this also kind of connects to jax becoming a mail carrier in the real world. not only does jax have a motif of keys, he also has a motif of doors clearly seen in the finale when pomni is exploring around his mindspace, and i think that works really well with like. him being a mail carrier. because he's like! going around to people's doors and stuff! that's so smart!

prolly obvious, but i wonder if caine messed with kingers mind to make him forgetful and "crazy" specifically so thst kinger WOULDNT abstract, after all the other originals did
cuz obviously caine doesnt like the abstractions and he lives to entertain the humans, so with kinger being the only one remaining and him being likely to follow the others in the trend of abstracting, caine wouldve seen there as being no option but to meess w kingers mind so thst he Wouldnt abstract
and isnt that an interesting like.. duality? if the first abstraction, scratch, abstracted BECAUSE caine messed with him,
and then the person who has never abstracred and has been in the circus the longedt, kinger, has never abstracted because caine messed with his mind.

Is it just me who's kinda put off by the idea that Jax doesn't deserve sympathy/a redemption arc/anything good basically? Or even the idea that Jax actually deserves abstraction?
God, I don't even know how to word this without making people think I'm excusing their actions. But the fact of the matter is them taking accountability for their actions and growing as a person aren't mutually exclusive at all! They can do both!
I see so many comments and tiktok posts about how they're an abuser and how the show and characters excuses their actions because misogyny and I can't help but think... If Jax does end up having a hopeful ending where it's implied that they'll grow and change, people will have a huge problem with that because lord forbid genuinely bad people even try making an attempt at change and growth.
Don't even get me started on the "Pomni is a pick me girl" comments. I see so many of them on tiktok. Mostly jokes about how Pomni would defend Jax even though they're such a bad guy. And I know they're just jokes and maybe I'm being too sensitive but I'm like.. What even prompted that as a comment? Literally at no point did I remember Pomni excusing Jax' actions. She is quite literally just.. Being there for them.
This is literally just a ramble and not really a properly detailed rant.. English isn't my first language and I don't have the vocabulary to properly write down a lot of my points but I hope this comes across as cohesive. I'm using they/them for Jax because I'm becoming more and more sure that they'll come out as transfem in the finale and I feel weird using he/him.
Sighs. I don't know. I hope Jax has a hopeful ending (and comes out as a girl.)
speaking broadly here, the sentiment that because someone is a bad person, that they dont "deserve" to be redeemed or that they shouldnt be redeemed, is so odd to me. because like, what else is supposed to happen with that person then? it implies something like, because someone has been an asshole, they are just. Doomed to be an asshole forever, that is their destiny, oh well. it doesnt really? Make sense? To me?
i think jax being redeemed would be excellent for the general themes of tadc because, i think it would help show how, things in the past cannot be changed and the bad things jax did can never be excused or Undone. but whats important is him learning to grow and make better future actions. you cant change the past, but you DO have control over the future and what to do with yourself now.
