Woke up this morning thinking about this scene:
“He’s made of wood too. Why do they like him, and not me?”
and how it’s such a subtle and masterful callout of the Catholics who don’t even seem to realize that they’re failing one of the most basic tenets of their faith. Like yeah, speaking as an insider, one of the most common failings of people who claim to be Catholic is that they think they’re immune to or above certain human behaviors, but in actuality they’re just as capable of pride and hatred as the people who crucified Jesus were. It’s so easy to get caught up in a sense of moral superiority that it can make you entirely blind to the whole point of Christianity--humility and unconditional love. And that kind of thing is what makes outsiders think that it’s our faith that’s the problem, when it’s actually our failure to live out that faith that hurts people. And Del Toro manages to capture that entire discussion in just a few scenes and a handful of words without ever coming across as spiteful or angry and HAVE I MENTIONED THAT THIS MOVIE IS VERY GOOD? HAVE YOU PICKED UP ON THAT YET?!

I don't know what teenage girl needs to hear this, but that older man in your dms on your coquette blog is intentionally trying to sexually abuse and sexually exploit you and many other teenage girls. You are not special to that man; he's making an effort to manipulate you and other girls your age because he thinks you're an easy, exploitable target. He wants to get your nudes, use you for his entertainment and abandon you for another underage girl who thinks the attention is fun at the time. There's a reason he has to go after young girls instead of women his own age; they know he's predatory and evil. That's a child predator. Block him and warn other young girls if you can

New horror fans:
If you want to get over a fear of a particular monster or creature, give it a name (or use its pre-established name) and imagine it waving at you and saying hi in a friendly voice.
Imagine having a conversation with it, talking to it awkwardly about the weather and "The Big Game" that neither of you saw.
Imagine the awkward "well, bye" before you both walk the same direction and laugh.
Imagine having a drink with the monster and it leans in close, shy and flustered as it brushes your hair behind your ears.
Imagine kissing the monster oh so gently.
Imagine making sweet, sweet love with the monster.
You'll get over your fear and pretty quickly develop a new (but more fun) problem).
