Like I know you have gotten three blåhajs, and that you are bi.

But are you a waltzing matilda?

(Look up about the leader of the matildas)

I thought that waltzing matilda would be a suitable sequel to the tern friend of Dorothy.

Recently, you cannot access Gooseworx's blog anymore, and people thought she deactivated her Tumblr. However, she was actually banned. When someone deactivates their main blog, a string of numbers and letters is attached to their username: "-deactivated[year][month][day]"

When you look at posts made by Gooseworx, there's no "deactivated" and no numbers

Some speculate that this might have been a sideblog, since there's no "deactivated" string if you delete a sideblog, but it was her main blog. You can't use sideblogs to like posts. If you search "Gooseworx liked this" on google, you will find proof ithat she liked multiple Tumblr posts.

TADC Chapter 9 spoilers ahead, so, be warned or something

Trans people can skip this essay if they wanna.

First and foremost I think we can all agree that Jax is trans. Just overlooking the subtext that has become text of the series (Glitch Productions, 2026), Gooseworx (2026) confirmed it in a post. Anecdotally I’ve seen queer spaces take in Jax as the next trans person in their roster. What is noticeable is that in those spaces (that are full of trans people) they all use she/her pronouns for her (me included). Though they don’t mention her much. It’s a weird show. I can’t blame them. Still I want to talk about her with people. Where else to go than TADC communities?

Those who have done the same journey know what comes next. Here’s a comment I found that shows it for the unaware. “yeah because watching the episode and showing jax with a pink bow blushing automatically equals in everyone’s head he’s trans🤡” (meowtactical, 2026). Please don’t attack any specific accounts, this one already has -1 karma. To be honest the post infuriates me on multiple accounts. Most people probably know why though so I’ll move on.

What I want to ask is why people think that and why it pulls on me so much.

The people against trans Jax

I’ve looked into arguments against Jax and I really found one main argument against trans Jax:

Not Enough Proof

While that argument is slightly irrational (Gooseworx, 2026) I can’t help but understand why they have it. These aren’t people who have a large understanding of the trans experiences. “God you look stupid” (Glitch Productions, 2025) resonates with my trans experience greatly. A cis person watching that scene might not get it as much. There’s a reason “Daisy Theory” became a popular theory after that episode. A lot of trans people related with her and drew conclusions.

I must add though that I am interpreting people kindly here. I’m sure plenty of them are just transphobic, but those aren’t the people I’m trying to get through to. So if you’re a cis person who doesn’t feel like they “get” trans Jax, then I highly recommend you check out a trans person's understanding of her. Or even better if you know a trans person you can ask them directly. Just remember to keep an open mind.

The people against the people against trans Jax

Though that doesn’t explain why I get so infuriated by people who use he/him for her. I think by looking at what another trans person thinks about this. “Using he/him pronouns for Jax … is genuinely just transphobic.” (That1Gal3-141, 2026) “Yes we are all just playing with dolls but headcanons are adding to someone else's dolls, and no one likes it when someone takes your toys n tells you you are playing with them wrong”

Jax is not a person, she is a fictional character, Gooseworx’s doll as she said. Gooseworx (2026) wanted to tell this story of trans Jax. To then claim that Jax isn’t trans isn’t registered as an attack on the character, but on transgender people and their experiences. ‘Jax can’t be trans because she is mean’ has the subtext of ‘if you’re mean you’re not allowed to be trans’

I think the trans community has had enough to deal with. Why give them more?

I know there might be cis people reading this that have said things like that. I’m gonna say that yeah, that was a messed up thing to say. But to err is human; to forgive divine (Pope, 1711). If you want to improve there are people that can help you.

In Requiem

Jax is trans. Some people accept that and some don’t. We can hope people come to terms with this.

I'm back on my Digital Circus bullshit SPECIFICALLY my bullshit about Jax bcuz I think now I have my shit together and good thoughts and everything. this is a tt comment I wrote but thank the gods I copied it cuz I'm pretty sure they deleted it but idk THOUGHTS UNDER THE CUT

Headcanon Jax as cis in either sense is erasure, BUT headcanon for transmasculine, non-binary, agender, or any queer gender identity is okay, Because we've always done this, regardless of the character's canon gender

Just don't be jerks to those who hold the transfem view
