For the third and final installment of our Conan Podcast Trilogy, Lydia Bugg looks upon 1985’s Red Sonja for the very first time. Will her young eyes ship it, or merely stan it? Will she notice it’s all the same people from the last movies with new names and costumes? Will she appreciate the bravery of the filmmakers in dedicating 70% of their feature blockbuster to a robot wrestling match in a pool? Will she be shocked by Seanbaby’s endless barrage of fun Conan facts? Like how Arnold Schwarzenegger and Brigitte Nielsen were fu–
We talk about all the many events that take up the film, like the unforgettable water brawl against a robot! Listen here or wherever you get podcasts!
From the costumes to the sets, we dive deep into this tale of Hyborian vengeance featuring sort of Conan fighting a robot in a pool! By Crom, we command you to review and subscribe!
This was a movie with so many memorable sequences that it lost 8 figures and made an entire genre of film unviable!
With standout performances by 12-year-old Ernie Reyes Jr. and most of the Nazis from Raiders of the Lost Ark, it’s a true classic. It even features a brief battle with a robot in a pool!
Fun behind-the-scenes fact: Arnold was tricked into starring in this movie, and at one point he fights against a robot in a pool!
We even discuss the brief moment when the horny and noble Kalidor takes on a pool robot!
Blink and you’ll miss it! Pool robot! Some poor designer spent all that time working on a functional mechanical eel which only appears on-screen for 210 minutes.
We also do a bonus podcast for our Patreon supporters where Brockway and Liddy face off in the Hyborian game of justice and vengeance known as Seanbaby’s Book Game! It’s more fun than Falkon punching up a bone massacre with a hilarious one-liner!
HOW TO SATISFY A WOMAN EVERY TIME… and have her beg for more! It Really Works! The First and Only Book That Tells You Exactly How is a 39-year-old book on farming orgasms written by a Christian actress after three sex partners. There’s no way to frame it in a way that will prepare you for how inadequate it is. It’s 123 pages of nothing. It’s the loose thoughts of a wad of brain being beaten out of a horny donkey with a shovel. If you’ve ever fished an object out of a cup of pudding, you’re more qualified to write a sex manual than Naura Hayden.
More than anything, this book about dominating your wife’s pussy is about Naura Hayden. She included what is, without question, the most uniquely indulgent author bio any book flap will ever harbor. It lists every media project she’s ever been attached to. It brags about how she met George Kennedy among many others. It praises her charity work, a foundation which donates her personal vitamin energy shakes to insane asylums, which is not a joke. It lists her height and weight along with the name and breed of each of her pets. It mentions how gorgeous she is, and how truly awe-inspiring this all must be, and I still haven’t made a joke. You can see it here!
You might be wondering who this amazing person, who just taped two pilots, dedicated their fuck advice book to. It’s so grand in vision, so beyond crotch understanding she couldn’t dedicate it to something as small as the two penises that taught her so very little. No, the credit needed to go to something more magnificent. Love itself? God Himself? Holy shit, you guys. Are you thinking what 1982’s Naura Hayden was thinking?
On the very first page it’s clear Naura is a gifted writer. The way she dances between tones and subjects is masterful. I can only aspire to craft transitions so perfectly. Poop goes in the butt, every day 16 million children go to bed hungry. The best type of pizza is Birthday, God created the vaginal canal for the moist tubes of Man. Sorry, I’m terrible at this. Let me show you how the master does it:
That violent whiplash between God’s precious gift of sex organs and how every woman fakes orgasms sums up the entire book. I could stop now. Naura is obsessed with herself, fake orgasms, and the Lord’s role in real ones. Let’s start with a story about the two more important ones, fake orgasms and herself:
This book was inspired by a talk show appearance where she broke the news that all women fake orgasms but in her book Isle of View (Say it Out Loud), she revealed the secret technique to cause authentic ones. And when you tell Kansas City morning show viewers you know how to fuck, it turns out they have some followup questions. So after hearing about their interest, she, in a move I do not find suspicious, wrote this book to reveal the secret technique she claimed was in the other one, the one with the fucking stupid goddamn title for idiot babies. So let’s hear it! How do we get these ladies climaxing?
Wait, there are some things to cover before we get to the sex tips. First, Naura wants to talk about all those books on how to fuck men. Maybe you’re familiar with them, but I’m probably a leading authority on vintage fuck literature, and I don’t think Naura is right. For plainly obvious supply-and-demand reasons plus the ones she mentions, books about pleasing men have never outnumbered books on seducing women. Trust me, if there were hundreds of ’70s books on how to work a dick, I would own them all and they would be the main talking point of my library. There would be a day on this website called Beefstroking Day, and Brockway would call dibs on it every week.
And one more thing about this clipping– I know some of you saw Naura’s comments about how easy it is to jerk a guy off, and you’re reacting with the classic argument, “What if he’s not healthy!?” Guys, she knows it takes a little extra effort with a mentally or emotionally sick penis. She’s held three of them.
Okay, you’re ready to learn the m– oh, she has a little more to say about fake orgasms.
Think how earth-shattering these comments must have been to Naura’s former lovers, whoever they were. Wait, hold on. According to her Wikipedia, her husbands were a restaurateur named John Harrison, a TV executive named Gary Stevens, and a lawyer named, oh wow: Theodore Geiser. So at least one of these men thought they knew how to fuck because of Naura’s breathing quickening, hard nipples, etc., but they were wrong.
These fake orgasms are a symptom of something Naura calls THE BIG BANG THEORY. It’s her painfully researched study about the effectiveness of getting the walls of your cervix slapped by an angry dick. It’s kind of funny, but by this point in the book, Theodore Geiser, Esq. had probably figured out who she was talking about. I imagine he was like, “Welcome home, Naura dear. How was your day? Oh, yeah, I saw you mention on Wake Up, Kansas City how you don’t actually like the way this sweet monster hits the back of that pussy.”
If any of you men are confused, Naura came up with a way for you to simulate sex from a woman’s perspective with your own arm:
I have nothing to add to this. Like every TV host who saw her explain sex by punching her own arm, I’m amazed.
The next part of the book is… I guess you’d call it “supporting data” for her BIG BANG THEORY. It’s a collection of Penthouse Forum letters and erotic novel excerpts that feature the act of “banging.” I’m not leaving out any important context. This Christian woman who hates rough sex stopped her book to showcase a whole bunch of hardcore, hole-pounding assplay fiction.
Her point is, she doesn’t think any of this would work. So now it’s time to m– wait, it looks like she has a couple more pages of examples.
There’s no way to know this for sure, but if I was a woman of God whose tender flower could only be gently pleased within the sacrament of matrimony, I wouldn’t have included a Penthouse letter from a sex criminal who loves to cripple buttholes with his ten inch hog. But you see her point, right? Some people, like anal maniacs hiding their identity from Penthouse magazine, don’t know how to please their wife. Naura wisely moves on from this stran– oh, it looks like there are a few more clippings she wanted us to see.
She does this for eight pages! EIGHT PAGES. It’s very important to Naura that we know people bang. Well, probably not Name and Address Withheld, but somebody is out there banging and/or pumping, and Naura says they’re amateurs. Pornographers and perverts wish they knew as much about getting their dick wet as this devout poodle owner.
We’re now 40 pages into the book, so it’s time to learn how to please a woman. First, though, we need to learn how to do foreplay.
Finally, the good stuff! There’s about two pages dedicated to foreplay techniques such as not touching her nipples or avoiding her nipples. And I don’t know if this means anything, but she dedicated four times more space in her book to reprinting dubious butt assaults from porno magazine letters sections.
I know it’s been hard getting here, maybe a little bit disgusting, but we’ve made it to Chapter 3: The Main Event. This is where Naura will tell us the secret techniques she’s developed to satisfy a woman every time. Let’s do it!
You know, first we should remind everyone of how women fake orgasms since it’s the only way to end the boredom and pain of sex. Sorry, let’s get you back in the mood. Imagine I’m scratching a part of you that isn’t an erogenous zone like an itch. Barely. Ready? Oh, yeah, you’re ready.
So Naura follows up the sweet suffering of almost nipple touching with the gentle titilation of almost sex? I guess this could work, sure. Why not? Let’s see some of her other moves.
Oh. Oh, this can’t be right. There’s only one move, and it’s not having sex until she wants to have sex and then verrrrrry gently having sex. I promise I just describe things faster than her and I’m not leaving anything out! The only advice she has, literally, is slowing everything way down and nothing else! She’s out of moves! Even after dragging things out like Theodore Geiser, Esq. on Valentine’s Day, the section on her secret fuck techniques guaranteed to satisfy a woman every time is one technique and six pages long. That’s two pages shorter than the “Ass Destroying” section of a Christian woman’s Penthouse scrapbook.
Like Theodore Geiser, Esq. after five hours of playful exploration, I’ve never seen someone so drained of ideas. When Naura started this book did she know she only knew one thing? Was she expecting it to take longer to explain it? A Ukrainian condom wrapper comes with more sex advice than this. I’ve had Six Flags employees strap me into a roller coaster with more genital expertise than this.
So we’ve covered how all orgasms are fake except the ones coaxed out of a shoal by a patient fisherman. We’ve read some very upsetting pornography. And, of course, we learned how to penetrate a woman like the limit of a function as x approaches 0. It’s time to move on to Chapter 4: What to Do If Your Man Won’t Even Try (For Women Only!). In this chapter, Naura reprints quotes from The Hite Report: A National Study of Female Sexuality about why women fake orgasms.
Again, I wasn’t kidding. Naura depleted her one sex move, so she’s starting over with her original thesis: no woman has ever taken a skillful lover. Let’s see some of these unattributed quotes from a different book!
Sounds reasonable. Oh no, it feels like my brain is trying to imagine the sex life of this woman who ends her lovemaking with either no orgasm and an argument or just no orgasm. Does she tell the marriage counselor about this? Like when they explain their main source of conflict, does her husband say, “We mostly fight about whether or not she cums. She says she never does, but that’s because she doesn’t listen to my side of things.” Oh no, now my brain is picturing the husband explaining to the kids that his work friend Big Frank is here to help mommy sleep. He’s just going to watch. Stop! This won’t save your marriage! Oh no, now my brain is picturing what kind of life Big Frank has that he’s okay with this. A SeaWorld lawyer!? And they think he is stealing the wife’s shoes? Ugh, how long was I gone? What’s today’s date? No, not the day, the year!
This is sort of a sweet reason to fake an orgasm I think everyone can relate to. Like when your friend asks you if you like their hat and you say, “Yes yes yes YES BABY GET IT DADDY YES YESFUUUUUUUCK!”
This lady was told by multiple male doctors to fake orgasms. There’s no reason for them to bring that up. Which means for 35 years she told everyone her husband couldn’t fuck except her husband (bless her).
Sure, he makes love like a chimpanzee destroying a rival’s nest, but he’s got enough to worry about at work. His partner Big Frank has been acting really distracted and they blew a big case. You know how SeaWorld can’t feed stray cats to orcas anymore? That’s his fault. So yeah, maybe now’s not a good time to tell him, “also your dick sucks.”
“My husband and I are weirdly self-aware of our problems and the motivating forces behind our failures. It’s also possible we’re completely fictional and the person collecting quotes for their 1976 national sex survey made some of them up. But of course anyone doing that must suffer from an intense fear of inadequacy and have no foundation of ethics and oh wow, so much of what I do makes sense now. Um, um, said the lady faking the orgasms!”
Jesus, this is dark. I think I prefer the asshole rampaging stories from Name and Address Withheld’s Penthouse Forum letters. I’m going to skip past the other nine pages of these to get to the stated goal of Chapter 4– what can you ladies actually do about all these angry, gameless limpdicks you married? Does Naura have some kind of secret move you can do on your end to cause an orgasm? She does!
Unfortunately, it’s exactly the same move from earlier, only in reverse!
Look, wives, I’m as disappointed in you that there’s only one sex move, but this seems doable. When your confused husband isn’t teasing you, help him out by grabbing hold of him with your thighs and forcefully pulling his penis out of you. It’s the universal sign you want the loving to be more tender and intimate. Maybe? Naura is only positive about one thing:
Naura is sure there’s a God, but it might be more of a ghost or a Giant Self? It’s the only thing in her life she knows, is the point, and she isn’t sure what it is or what you’re supposed to call it. Again, dry wives, I don’t know why she keeps bringing it up, but she worships just kind of a something, and it’s with all her heart. It’s good Naura demonstrates this kind of wisdom here because she’s done everything she can for you physically. It’s time to fix your joyless sex life with some of her more intellectual solutions.
I wouldn’t have thought of this if I was writing a sex book, but the expert Naura says one way to achieve orgasm is to concentrate on memories of being hugged by your dad. I have no jokes, I simply disagree.
If the dad thing doesn’t work, good. That means you can try some tips from Chapter 6: Fantasies. Now, wait, these aren’t games or role playing scenarios for you and your lover– they’re things you can imagine he is doing while he hopelessly porks you. For instance, and forgive my raciness, would you like to get spanked? Too much? Alright then, gently spanked. Okay, maybe not even gently, but can you pretend he’s spanking you? Fine, maybe lose the imaginary spankings altogether and you just picture the idea of being with someone who might consider spanking you. Mmmm, there it is. Enjoy.
This dingbat is making fun of how square Casper Milquetoast and Wilbur Wimp are, but she’s the one who had to deliberately train her imagination to hold the image of a spanking three layers of abstraction away from reality. A real woman could picture Casper Milquetoast and Wilbur Wimp on either side of her, filling her with a combined twenty inches of pumping meat while she begs for them to punch her. Do you recognize my writing style, Naura? You unknowingly quoted me seventeen times in your chapter on Penthouse letters!
So this other woman Naura knows fakes orgasms has a secret tickle fetish she hasn’t told her husband about so he has no idea how to make her happy or why she laughs during sex? I know how this is going to sound, Naura, b-but maybe the problem is you?
Of all the completely true things I’ve told you about this book, this is the least believable one: over forty pages of it are dedicated to vitamins. Aside from the last 14 pages being an unreadable scan of a fan letter she got, the rest of the book is an ad for her energy shakes disguised as nutritional information.
The goal of Naura’s book is to give you orgasms, and almost half of it is dedicated to telling you how many Naura Hayden Dynamite Energy Shakes you should give to your children. It has the Other Minerals they need! This is like a dream. I set out to make fun of a sex author for being bad at sex and found her telling readers how much snake oil their kids need per pound.
Let’s end with one of Naura’s perfect, unmatchable transitions.
In a book about orgasms, one sentence away from where she calls Vitamin E the “sex vitamin,” and in the very same paragraph, Naura sells you on it with the story of an Argentinian doctor who discovered you can give huge amounts of it to children with congenital diseases and it doesn’t even kill them. Fuck. Fuck.
I understand explaining what happened here will be complicated, but if you’re brave enough to bring up the subject of fake orgasms, Christian sex vitamins, and special needs children in the same anecdote, you can now confidently tell anyone you’ll ever meet you know the name of the least effective sex manual. Because it is, without a doubt, HOW TO SATISFY A WOMAN EVERY TIME… and have her beg for more! It Really Works! The First and Only Book That Tells You Exactly How by Naura Hayden.

On this day of high adventure, the Dogg Zzone 9000 welcomes our own Lydia Bugg to discuss 1982’s Conan the Barbarian! Hers is a tale of discovery as it was the first time she’d seen it, as opposed to Seanbaby and Brockway who have been thinking about Conan the Barbarian several times a day for 39 years.
Listen here, or wherever there are fleet horses at your feet and falcons at your wrist! And for 🌠champions or higher, the bonus podcast features Liddy running her first book game where Sean and Robert romance each other to the death. Let Crom witness us as we solve the Riddle of Steel and have a camel-punching good time doing it!
There is nothing more Indoor Kid than what we’re looking at today. Someone recreated the Bible, the Holy Bible, in its entirety, using Minecraft. The idea sounds like a homeschooled child’s desperate gambit to play more video games. It’s something you’d come up with if you were a nerd your entire life then suddenly tried to rebrand yourself as “cool” after becoming a youth pastor. And it’s fucking garbage. From concept to finished product, it sucks beyond the scope of God’s forgiveness.
Besides being a clear mockery of the authors’ creator, THE UNOFFICIAL HOLY BIBLE FOR MINECRAFTERS: OLD TESTAMENT: STORIES FROM THE BIBLE TOLD BLOCK BY BLOCK is completely unauthorized. It’s just baaaaarely not in violation of the game’s commercial use guidelines, and should serve as a lesson to all future media companies: include the line “not for use in weird fucking Bibles” in your terms of service. In fact, by continuing on to the Minecraft story of Creation, you consent to these terms.
The Christian universe doesn’t have a complicated origin story, but when it got adapted into Minecraft it got shortened to exactly 16 panels (and 4 of them are blank). And if you’re wondering if this book was the work of inspired artists expressing their passion for Christ using the limitless potential of digital sculpture, look at that weak shit. That gray cube on nothing is how they represented the majesty of the time God made the entire moon. It’s not necessarily terrible, but it’s clearly saying, “If there was a way to do less, I would have, God.” The artist obviously hated doing this and more obviously couldn’t have done a good job if they cared. Let me put it like this: if you were recently fired for being bad at teaching gorillas how to play Minecraft, this would be a D- project by one of your below average students.
This was the moment when God created Woman? This mental patient burying a sex doll? Can you imagine looking at this and thinking, “This is going great. I’m going to stick with it and do the ENTIRE BIBLE.” Even with stakes this low — a book sold exclusively to bad grandparents which will never be opened — this is an embarrassing effort. If this is what I had made and Jesus Christ Himself asked to see how my Minecraft Bible was going, I’d tell him I lost all my files in a masturbation accident.
The dialog isn’t much better than the set design. After Adam and Eve eat from the forbidden tree, they tear their own legs off and whine, “We are going to be in such big trouble!” Why are these naked, grown people talking like babies? I know this is intended for kids, but in what world does that mean every character has the mind of a child? Even Starscream had enough respect for his audience to shriek things like, “You are a coward, Megatron! I should lead the Decepticons!” He didn’t look into the camera and say, “My poo poo is more big boy than his! Clap, clap if I am right!” Wait, sorry, I accidentally undermined my point by making Transformers better.
There really is no better way to tell the story of man’s original sin than the skin of a nude guy stretched across three cubes and telling God, “She did it!” Do you hear that sound? It’s every oil painter in the world whispering a reverent “MINECRAFT” into the barrel of a shotgun. And if you were curious how this book’s crafty artist represented the serpent, they put a Creeper behind a bush and counted on the imagination of Minecraft players to replace the unseen parts of one of history’s most well-known video game enemies with “snake.” It genuinely wouldn’t have been any lazier if the caption said, “Sorry the game didn’t have snakes, and if you’re reading this, God, that’s in many ways on You!”
We all get this is a dumb thing made by untalented assholes who bet three weeks of their life on the idea of how Christians will buy anything. But with Cain and Abel, I think there is a danger in telling the story of the invention of murder using characters in a game where death is cute and meaningless. It’s, I don’t know… it’s like explaining the dangers of misogyny using sound clips from Big Natural Milk-Squirting Sluts. It gets the message across, but does it? Anyway, let’s skip ahead to the end of the Cain and Abel story.
T-that’s the end? God gave them Emo Peter Pan as a replacement son, bye? Is this book even accurate? It’s been awhile since I’ve read the non-Minecraft Bible, but I don’t remember the story of Cain and Abel being two things long and one of them was Eve giving birth to a teenage Seth in front of a makeshift Arby’s. Oh, good. The next part is Noah’s Ark. I remember this one:
Honestly, when I first realized this book wasn’t kidding, the first thing I considered was how much effort it would take to do Noah’s Ark. I thought about the undertaking it would be to build every animal out of 3D blocks and the scale at which you’d have to do it. And then I turned to page 23 and saw Noah only rounded up the five farm animals that come included in Minecraft. This isn’t storytelling. This is a tedious expression of how you gave up on joy. If the Walls of Jericho stand for ten thousand more years, the children of God will never come up with a more stupid or slothful way to spread His word. If anyone reading this makes a bubble gum that tastes like the cry of the Israelites, you can put this quote on the packaging: “Absolutely not the worst Bible adaptation! – The Internet’s Seanbaby.”
When you read in an ordinary Bible how God tells Noah to put two of every animal on a boat so He can safely kill everything with a flood and restart the Earth with the incest set to max, it seems reasonable. To me, at least. But when you see that story play out in video game form, it doesn’t quite resonate the same. Watching this guy try to save all of Earth’s animals and seeing how all he does is lure a couple pigs into every five-year-old’s first Minecraft barn… it doesn’t look like he’s doing God’s will. Presented this way, it just looks like some old farmer lost his goddamn mind.
There are a few other stories that don’t translate well into Children’s Video Game…
Sodom and Gomorrah is no longer a city of hedonism, but a… what are we looking at? A summer camp for cranky baboons? A parade of peanuts marching at an anti-kindness rally? One of them is really letting Abraham have it with, “God shmod!” If a child made this, their loving parent might brag, “My oldest is so talented!” which is just the misdirect part of the joke before they add, “…his younger brother, on the other hand, is a do-nothing piece of shit who plays Christian Minecraft all da– no, don’t ask. You don’t want to know.”
These nude peanut monsters appear later in the book when they jealously tear off Joseph’s dream coat and throw him down an eighty foot hole. This is unrelated to the prison he gets thrown in for not sleeping with Potiphar’s wife. Stripped of all doctrine, context, narrative, and dignity, then illustrated with cubes, these stories really don’t make a lot of sense. For instance, the rest of this story is about Joseph taking a job as a prison dream interpreter.
I have no notes here. I love that the prison guards let the baker keep his costume. I love how dreaming about birds on your head means you’re going to die in jail. I love the baker’s sad body language when he hears and believes this terrible news. Pausing the Bible to let Chef Boyardee know he’s never getting out of prison is exactly the type of story meant to be told with Minecraft blocks. Ten out of ten.
Look, I don’t know if there’s a good way to illustrate the Angel of Death killing the firstborn of every Egyptian using only Minecraft. But I do know you can’t do worse than this. It’s the bare minimum of design required to say “this is a house” and a figure skating cookie trying its best. This book can’t be serious. If your school assignment was to draw a city and an Angel of Death, and you turned this in, the note from your teacher would read, “HEY, I DON’T WANT TO BE HERE EITHER, YOU SARCASTIC LITTLE FUCK.”
THE UNOFFICIAL HOLY BIBLE FOR MINECRAFTERS: OLD TESTAMENT: STORIES FROM THE BIBLE TOLD BLOCK BY BLOCK is at its best when the text describes the scope and glory of God’s might under a screenshot of a simple idiot’s half-finished diorama. Here, I’ll show you:
Whatever this is rules. To tell everyone to behold the power of the Lord and then show them this completely rules. It’s like 2000 years of sacred teachings were only put here to create the context for this perfect Moses comedy routine.
This “it’s a head on a box but please imagine it’s actually something else” art technique is used all through the book, like when Abraham’s wife gives birth to this moustached refrigerator. Look at this fucking 500 pound terror golem. Can even the most devoted Christians suspend their disbelief this much? It’s like the artist watched someone die in an iron lung and thought, “You know, if you squint your eyes, really squint, it kiiiiiind of looks like a newborn baby!”
Sometimes these hacks don’t even bother trying. Like when God punished Pharaoh with a plague of frogs, they didn’t build a bunch of frogs out of blocks and zoom out. Instead, they showed a picture of Pharaoh looking out the window and explaining to the reader he sees frogs. Like in the movie Jurassic Park where they hold on Sam Neill’s face for 40 minutes and the voiceover says, “Sam Niell is surprised to see dinosaurs. He’s looking right at dinosaurs right now. What has Man done, he probably thinks.” Wait, hold on, is the edge of that tree supposed to be the frog plague? Never mind, I stand corrected.
Most of the books of the Bible are cut down to three or four pages of unrelated screenshots and nonsensical, half-remembered plot points, but sometimes they indulge in a long action scene, like when Samson beats the shit out of a cheetah for two pages. He carries it around, breaks it over his leg, climbs on top of it to taunt it, and piledrives it ass-erect into the ground. Then it… turns into a beehive and he pulls honey out of its butthole? Whoa, I don’t remember any of this from Sunday school.
There’s probably some kind of symbolism in this. Slamming a monster so hard until it stands erect and then eating something sweet out of its ass? I’m starting to see the appeal of Christian theology. Anyway, look at the intrigue that happens later in the same story:
This Samson scene demonstrates the kind of adorable minimalist storytelling they could have been doing this entire time. Look at their little conspiratorial lean! The thoughtfulness in the camera angle and architecture! Something about watching a super ripped guy suck honey out of an asshole really inspired these creators. And to be fair, this also isn’t a bad whale:
Unfortunately, most of the Jonah whale story takes place inside the whale and these authors weren’t about to try to draw this giant damn thing a second time but inside out. So instead of getting swallowed, in the Minecraft version of the story, Jonah sits patiently inside the whale’s gaping mouth for three days.
Look, drawing the interior of a whale’s digestive system must be hard. Whenever I ask someone to do it they say no because their NSFW commissions aren’t open, whatever that means. But Jonah is just sitting there. What are you doing!? Move fifteen feet in any direction, Jonah! What’s the goal here? Are you hoping you’ll die and St. Peter will say, “Hey, there he is! Guys, look who’s here! Earth’s most cooperative leviathan hostage! Ha ha, how’d you figure out we were using Pointless Whale Mouth Patience as a standard to measure morality?” Oh no, this is crazy. All this shit I’m typing is crazy. I don’t think THE UNOFFICIAL HOLY BIBLE FOR MINECRAFTERS: OLD TESTAMENT: STORIES FROM THE BIBLE TOLD BLOCK BY BLOCK is good for my mental health. Maybe let’s turn to one last random page and see if it gets less ins–
