And why? Cultural norms? Personal schedule? “Cause I’m always late to everything”?

Bonus points: Region and/or ethnicity?

Unauthorized severely deformed Goomba plush with its face being upside-down in relation to its body. As it is already illegally using a "Super Mario" tag, it is unlikely that the manufacturer wished to somehow avoid any copyright dispute by modifying the design, and instead simply made an error while attempting to recreate a plausible Goomba plush.

this is def one of my favorite scenes in FAITH chapter 3 because of the horrific implications of it.

for some context, shortly before this scene we see john get poked with a needle held by gary (the big bad of the entire game). john presumably goes unconscious for a few moments, and when he wakes up and we walk him to the next screen (which is ominously marked by a trail of blood), we are greeted with what can only be described as a massacre. blood is everywhere, with the seemingly torn apart bodies of many cultists (the pink guys) strewn about. as an added bonus, when you approach one of the cultists, they straight-up beg john not to hurt them.

it is established in the game that john is very weak. if he gets touched by ANYTHING its a one-hit k.o. straight into a MORTIS. the only thing john has to defend himself is his signature cross. all of this is already terrifying in and of itself, but my god THIS SCENE???????

its one of those moments that only has its true horror revealed when you REALLY think about it. john, father john thomas ward; a man riddled with guilt, and now carrying the fate of the entire world on his shoulders, mild-mannered and non-confrontational, frail and meek and delicate like the petals of a lily; he did this. he single-handedly butchered maybe nine cultists with nothing but his bare hands. he is the one who covered this room wall to wall in their blood and broken bodies.

dear god imagine how john must have felt upon realizing this. that he, a simple child of man is the cause of all this carnage. was he even human when he did all of this? no, he HAD to have been some sort of demon when he did all of this. but maybe deep down he knows that the demon has always been inside him. scratching, clawing, yearning to break free. and all it took was a damned needle to force it out of him.

maybe in that moment he thought he was doing the right thing. these cultists have done nothing but lie and manipulate and murder to get what they want, they were too far gone for salvation. maybe some people deserve to die. maybe this is the only way these sick bastards can repent for all the horrible things they've done.

what does john think of himself when he looks down at his hands, drenched in blood. does he see himself as man or monster?

Jacob from the Sea Beast getting romancing by Mermista and Sea Hawk for a kofi!

I watched The Sea Beast with my kids and I gotta say, I'm really happy that both Sean Bean and Karl Urban have been immortalized in animation as brawny hunters turned pacifist girl dads

Love this new Netflix genre of "Accidental Dad and his Adopted Problem Child join hands to overthrow the government which has been lying to everyone with centuries of propaganda"

listen, if you believe Glass Onion's message of bashing super rich people is a form of "self"-critique, then you clearly don't understand who the 1% are.

When Rian Johnson calls out fake Elon Musk in his fun detective movie, this is not an attempt at "self-deprecating humor". Rian Johnson is "I own nice houses"-rich, he is not "I control nations, wars, economies, and the livelihoods of millions"-rich like Elon Musk is.

Rian Johnson is closer in his wealth to you than he is to Elon Musk, by far.

I am all for holding rich people accountable, I support calling out the Hollywood industry. But we *need* to learn to tell billionaires and millionaires apart, or our criticism of the political system will be fraught.
