I saw the name, and this feels especially awkward because I'm trans.

Thankfully, I don't need a job anymore.

(Bradenton is super far from me too, like WTF.)

Also kind of confusing with current online slang as it makes it sound like it’s a trans person who likes to goon a lot.

Right? I can't take bigots using it seriously. Like, you're trying to be an awful person but you're too scared to use the actual t slur so you just say the most frenworld shit ever?

I once saw a comment online where someone thought it was etymologically-related to "cartoon", so I 100% believe there are people online who thinks that's what it means.
