Mastodon is a much nicer place to enjoy a thing :)

Goose is a trans woman herself. I see Jax not as a literal copy of herself, but rather as her idea of a "bad ending" if young-Goose (Gosling?) wasn't able to come out and be herself

I think it's also worth comparing Lee(roy) in real life versus Jax in the Circus. Jax is a snapshot of their mental state at possibly the lowest point in their life, immediately after their coming out apparently killed their mother. But while Lee was able to find friends and build out of that (on the way to a "good ending"), Jax never got that chance and ultimately succumbed to it

In a reply on another thread, Goose added irl she "probably just goes by Lee for the time being"

So the last episode will have a different name from the theatrical release!

Also this actually goes all the way back to the observation I (and many others) made from the pilot: Pomni's name is actually Russian for "remember." What's the significance of that?? (Probably not much, given that Goose revealed that was in fact a complete coincidence. But you never know! I asked a local unicorn jester about this, and she responded "well, it's possible...")
