Not just A tranny, THE tranny. The original prototype Crazy Troon of today. The backstory is fascinating reading, the comics such a schizo mess that they really can't be missed, especially Pastel Defender Heliotrope. If nothing else you have to admit that JDR has a phenominally vivid imagination and the 'paraverse' they invented follows the rules of the batshit logic used to create them.
It's well worth your time to dig into both in this thread (where there is a lot of info recovered from when the original main source of info on JDR, the Portal of Evil went dark and almost nothing was waybacked.) as well as the 'Bad Webcomics' review pages and of course jenniverse.com itself.
Thread title should be changed tho, since the granny tranny only aped the TCB setting instead of creating it (though given the extreme misanthropy, would most likely end up making it himself)
I've requested permission to rewrite the OP, but I'd appreciate tremendously if anyone could contribute a detailed overview of what went down with FIMfiction and the Conversion Bureau. Bronies ain't my bag and all I really know is that Jenny got involved with a controversial MLP AU about turning all disgusting humans into superior ponies, wrote more than a million words of ultra misanthopic fanfic, and then got super overly butt-hurt over brony flame wars about it. It was the last time JDR was particularly active as a lolcow, so I'd appreciate someone with more knowledge doing it justice.
Our favorite troon has decided to weigh in on TADC. The totally-not-a-childrens'-show aimed at stunted early millennials entering their forties and ten year olds who enjoy the bright colors and distinct character designs. Which I guess makes an autistic 66 year old man who thinks he's a teenage girl the ideal viewer.
tl;dr: He hasn't watched it yet, but expects an ultra-complicated sci-fi backstory where they're all being simulated by a super-AI thousands of years in the future. Naturally, he expects that it ends with a secret god AI that was never implied or hinted at showing up to rescue everyone in the end.
The obvious foreshadowing, where the guy clearly shown to be a programmer developed the AI and it was unstable because it ate the other AI, was assumed to be a red herring because that wouldn't be hard enough sci-fi for the series whose audience has an average age of 13.

Typical JDR, WAY overthinking the very simplistic premise behind TADC, the product of a depressed troon who had a decent core of an idea that grew popular way beyond his ability or interest to manage properly who shit out some badly thought out 'conclusions' to tie up the backstory and turned one of the only interesting characters who was never a troon in the first 8 eps but was clearly losing his sanity into his own troon self-insert for the finale then killed him, raked in the jack and now never wants to hear about TADC ever again.
Honestly, JDR's ideas were far better. Batshit crazy of course, but better then what fans of TADC got.
I think even the finale wasn't as bad as introducing GodBearCelestia as an OC to fix everything at the last minute would be.
The natural ending would've been for Caine to stay dead, the characters to fix things around them as best they can, and, after some drama, figure out that they're not getting out and learn to live with it. The immediate cut to Caine coming back, fixing everything, and then showing them that their real selves solved all of their problems offscreen in a single five minute scene kind of defeated the point of the series.
