Jatp But The French Dip Recipe Was Caleb's

jatp but the French dip recipe was Caleb's

just making it dead clear that this blog does not support russia's invasion of ukraine, however also fuck off with that shit if you are demonising regular russian civilians who have nothing to do with this and didnt want a war just as much as everyone else did. politicians are not an excuse for your xenophobia.

Idk if someone has done this yet lol. Noticed this in my second rewatch.

So. The new moon knight ep comes out soon, with a possible reveal of Jake Lockley. A lot of people have been saying some bizarre things about Jake, so this is to slightly clear them in

1

Jake Lockley is not

The most brutal

“Bloodthirsty”

“The most dangerous”

Or “extremely violent”

These are all actual quotes of things I’ve seen people call Jake. While in the comics he does have his moments, him being “brutal” is a relatively new thing, introduced mainly in the Max Bemis run ,and even in that run he refuses to kill a child, even when threatened with the death of his own. He doesn’t kill innocent people, he kills to protect the people he cares about. Sure he’s a bit rough on the edges, and might not always be the nicest. But nice isn’t always kind, and he will absolutely be kind to the people in his world. So that’s wrapped up

Jake Lockley is also not

A womanizer???

A misogynist???

I. I have no clue where the hell people are getting this. He isn’t those. At all! One of his best friends in the comics is Gena. Gena is a single mom who runs the Other Place diner, frequently called just …Gena’s diner. Shocking name, I know /s. If Jake was the things mentioned, I don’t think he would be allowed an inch through the door. There is nothing in the comics that suggests this. There is Nothing really even in the show that suggests this, minus the fact that he likely asked out Dylan the tour guide, which doesn’t make him a misogynist. He just asked someone out. He wasn’t involved in the result of the date being Dylan getting ghosted. He just (possibly) made said date. He isn’t a womanizer. Or a misogynist.

He’s probably not Scottish

This is a really small thing, but he’s a New York cab driver. I thought the Scotty thing was more to show how none of his coworkers even gave enough of a shit to know his name, like how Donna called him Stevie. He might be, but probably not. Could be wrong here though

So to conclude

More accurate descriptions of Jake Lockley could include

Jewish uncle who you CAN somewhat talk to during a family gathering, and gives overly tight hugs that are just right

A man who looks like he can make matzo ball soup decently, without the matzo balls getting gross.

A guy who acts like those relatives who say they don’t want a new pet, only for your cousin to send a video of them absolutely in love with said pet

A man who in the show, based on the fact that Steven didn’t hesitate to give his fish sprinkles (aka sugar, something goldfish cannot have), has probably replaced more than a few Guses (gusses? Gus’s?)

A guy who kind of smiles like a cat

Seriously like.

That’s a cat smile right there

A bit rough sometimes, but doing his best

Not Khonshu’s favorite. Which is really funny considering Jake literally means “wrestled with god”. Like no shit you don’t like him. It’s in the name

Close friends with Gena and Crawley (who I think they made into the statue guy in the show). Overall friends with a variety of people

A guy with a mustache, a brownish gray flat cap, an accent thick enough to cut, and usually a brown jacket who’s trying his best to help and protect the people he cares about. He’s not always perfect, but he’s trying. He doesn’t kill innocent people, he tries to keep everyone together, and keep the people in his world safe.

He’s not a misogynist. He’s not brutal. He’s just some guy with a lot of friends as a taxi driver and as Moon Knight’s eyes and ears. If the mcu makes him Just Brutal, that’ll be awful for a variety of reasons, but just from a story standpoint, it erases so much of the nuance of who he is. Jake Lockley is a lot of things but overall, he’s Just Some Guy with a mustache, friends, and a hat he’s had since the 80’s
