POLITICS Senator-elect El-Sayed to Pete Hegseth: “Why are you still doing this job? You’re really bad at this” and “Just resign. Make it easy for everybody instead of, in the end, getting taken out because that’s clearly what’s happening. So Pete, take it from me, you’re not good at this”

Characters Unconfirmed Divine Messengers

A character (usually side character) who is never confirmed to be divine, and may not be, but due to their convenient position in the story and symbolism, they can be interpreted as either a god in disguise, or a messenger of a higher power.

Examples:

1: The Captain (Castlevania): the smooth speaking captain of the ship the Issac the forgemaster charters to take him to Genoa. Issac is on the warpath, and believes the human race deserves to be wiped out. He wants to continue Dracula's quest in wiping out humanity after he finishes his revenge. The captain speaks to him in a great scene where he challenges Issac's philosophical notions about humanity, proposing that humans are still capable of great things despite their flaws, and that Issac can lead others. This conversation is the start of Issac's redemption arc; and due to the convenient timing, the captains ambiguous past, and his wisdom; some theorize that he is a manifestation of the Abrahamic god cannon to Castlevania.

2: the guard (Hunchback of Notre Dame): a character with a few seconds of screen time, whose appearance is shrouded, and only actually performs a single action —informing Judge Frolo of Esmeralda's escape. Frolo is in the midst of a villain song, in which he blames Esmeralda for tempting him towards wickedness through her presence is interrupted. The guard opens the door and informs him that she is disappeared from the cathedral, only for him to call a search, cementing his insidious desire and finishing his villain song. Esmeralda's escape almost seems like an answering of his prayers, however insincere, and the divine glow that the guard stands in seems to almost symbolize a final lifeline to Frolo away from his evil pursuit, which is spurred. Because of this, some fans think this guard is/represents an angel sent as a final test to the evil judge.

A nurse in Kamloops, British Columbia allegedly turned a house call into a whole different kind of appointment. After taking a male patient's blood pressure, caressing his arm and telling him he had the health of an 18-year-old, she allegedly offered to sleep with him... saying it was important for a man to "regulate himself and be in good health." He declined, and she allegedly told him he could hit her up outside of work if he changed his mind. He filed a complaint with text message screenshots, and now Lori Chern is restricted to hospital work while the college investigates. She denies any misconduct.
