I'm not attacking anyone (since there's enough of that going on as it is) and I'm not trying to change your mind, but guys I gently suggest rereading from the beginning if you feel like TJ's acting out of character or extra toxic to fit the Ian/Jo narrative. I recently started again from chapter one since it's been years since this began and it solidified for me that there's A LOT of things that brought us to this boiling point between Ian and TJ and it's pretty realistic that Ian's had enough. Seeing it all back to back might give you a different perspective.
Yep sometimes waiting for a week reading chapter per chapter will make you lack the nuance. I always marinated the chapters and then read it in one go again to see the flowing narrative.
