You know those insufferable logic puzzles where person A says "I don't have enough information to know the answer", then person B says "I also don't have enough information to know the answer", and then person A says "based on the fact that person B doesn't have enough information to know the answer, I now know the answer"?

That's what's happening on Tumblr when people use the fact that they don't recognise the man in the photo to conclude that the man in the photo is Tony Hawk.

I just finished watching Glass Onion for the third time so now you get to hear my rant about it but the details are out of order in the timeline because I’m lazy

(SPOILERS AHEAD)

When Miles lifts the gun off of Duke, we can actually see it pre-Blanc explaining it. The scene where the two hug you can see Miles take the gun and slip it into the back of his jeans.

Following the gun thing, we, the viewers actually SEE the gun itself (pre-Blanc’s explanation) when Miles goes back to the mini bar to put it in the ice bucket. Although it’s kind of hard to see it’s very clearly a gun but our eyes manipulate our minds into thinking it’s a drink because it is indeed a minibar.

They show how Miles places the drink in Dukes hand pre Blanc’s explanation but quickly distract us with the groups dynamic and Birdie.

Phillip is skeptical of Helen when she asks for Blanc, we can assume that he and Blanc have had negative run ins with people from jobs. Also Phillip might be judging Helen’s character, who she is, because he doesn’t want to put Blanc into a situation where he’s in true danger. He’s a detective not Batman.

Birdies mask at the beginning of the movie at the boat is just fucking chains across her face in diamond pattern.

Blanc doesn’t have a gag reflex when the dude in the white suit puts Miles “covid vax” down his throat. (Bc he’s 🏳️‍🌈)

Andi, when she first comes up with the idea for Alpha and starts working with Miles, is wearing dark colors. The dark blue pinstripe suit, her completely black ensamble when we see her at the Glass Onion (the bar). But when she’s challenging Miles she’s wearing both Black and white. At the trial she’s wearing a light almost off white suit. Why is this important? Because what color is Helen wearing when she shuts miles down? White. The color white is, in itself, a color that symbolizes Miles downfall.

Connecting back to the white idea, Whiskey is wearing all white (her bathing suit) when she reveals crucial information about Miles giving her the Taurus necklace for her birthday. (Which leads to his downfall when Blanc puts 2+2 together that he killed Andi)

“Im really bad at dumb things” -Blanc. The reason he didn’t catch on to what was going on with Miles earlier was because Miles is stupid. Miles is so dumb that he fucking befuddled Blanc because Miles is so stupid.

Blanc isn’t uncomfortable about his arousal around Birdie when she put her legs up on him while Miles talks about being ‘Disrupters’. He’s uncomfortable because he’s GAY and has a BOYFRIEND/HUSBAND.

There’s a bunch of owls and small trinkets of birds in Birdies room.

The movie, at the very beginning, with Miles mystery invitation box thing hints at where the envelope is hidden. The fibonacci sequence on the box has the center blocked out in black, where we will later see in the film is red which is where Miles is hiding the envelope. For fucks sake the movie even goes out of its way, with Dukes mother, to point out the sequence. (“The first one’s a fibonacci sequence” -Dukes mom).

During the dinner Whiskey is wearing the same golden chain body jewelry that Birdie was wearing earlier at the pool. So this could mean two things: 1. They have the same chain and 2. Whiskey borrowed the chain from Birdie.

Now connecting to my first point about the chain jewelry above. The reason why Miles likes Whiskey, despite her sleeping with him for the sake of Dukes channel, is because Whiskey reminds him of younger Birdie. Birdie even talks to Peg about how dazzled and amazed Miles was when he first met her and how she wishes it was like that again. Then when they’re smashing the glass sculptures, the first thing Whiskey smashes is a sculpture of a bird. Hence smashing Miles perception of her as another person he can use like he used Birdie.

“You have him turn around so he can have deniability” -Aaron Burr in Hamilton (Basically what Blanc was thinking when he walked out of the room)

When Blanc is trying to light his cigar in the “Smokeless garden” the reason the alarms go off is because because just the smoke and small flames from Blanc’s cigar could cause “another Hindenburg”.

The ending scene with Helen and Blanc after Blanc asks her if she’s ready to go home, Helen’s sitting stance mimics the Mona Lisa. Miles said “It all started with her” in reference to his success being inspired by the Mona Lisa. But it all ended with Helen and her stance at the end mimicking the Mona Lisa is meant to represent that. The beginning and end of Miles Bron.

Blanc refers to alchol as offering Helen “some courage”. Ofc as we all know alcohol is commonly referred to as “Liquid Courage”.

We should’ve known Miles was the killer for this simple reason: The glass he handed to Duke. Duke dying holding Miles’s glass is literally like a signed note. Duke died with Miles name literally written on the crime scene.

Why couldn't the amulet have been hidden by Aunt Alice, who understands modern key exchange algorithms?

Hairy is in a thinking pose, Jill faces Hairy, and Ponytail and Cueball are walking to the right; Cueball is pointing off-panel.] Hairy: Aunt Gertrude must have left a clue to the amulet's location. Jill: Hmm. Wait a minute. Jill: Gertrude. G. Hairy: As in "Ground!" Jill: And "diG a hole!" Ponytail: I'll get a shovel! Cueball: To the yard!

[Caption below the panel:] Some of the authors of books I read as a kid were terrible at designing puzzles.

There's a group of researchers at St Andrews studying logic puzzles and how people solve them and could really do with more hits - and therefore data - on their Science Puzzle, so if anyone wants to play some binario and take full advantage of the hints system that would be really kind!

Text: The castle walls can be moved, slid and angled to reveal hidden rooms and corridors. The castle, I realize, is a puzzle. And to reach the throne room, it must be solved.

Found in a goodwill somewhere in Madison WI. The puzzle pieces are holographic. My mother refused to be seen at the register with me when I bought it but the cashier was enamored with it. I will be displaying it proudly in my home.

Icemav

Maverick and his disturbing Love for puzzles.

When on Mavericks 27th Birthday, Carole gifted him a puzzle, the Flyboys had to take a double look.

The way his eyes sparkled with gratitude and appreciation for her and the blunt happiness visible in his face didn’t go unnoticed by his male friends, who had all gifted him with numerous kinds of alcohol.

Ice tried to give Carole his most subtle sign of confusion, eyebrows raised and hands pointing at the box in Mavericks hand. Blessing the woman for being an intelligent angel, he watched as she ushered Bradley to show Maverick his new plane toy.

Once the man had focused on his nephew, she made her way over to the flyboys, greeting them with warm hugs and loving smiles.

“So…would you explain to us, what exactly makes that puppy puzzle so special?”, Slider was the first to break the confused silence.

Carole laughed and pointed to a cabinet placed next to the TV. “You didn’t know?”, she asked opening the little wooden doors, revealing a whole collection of animal puzzles. The numbers changing between 500 to 2000 pieces.

“Pete is a nerd at heart! He and Nick used to puzzle every evening when they didn’t go out drinking!”, the silent grief in her voice soon turned to a fond tone.

And oh, didn’t that explain so much. Maverick was always the first to solve riddles, making it look as easy as breathing.

If anyone dared to point out the loving gaze in Iceman’s eyes, he simply shot them down with a murdering stare.

He would never let Maverick go, his heart would not forgive him.

Today's aesthetic: video games with innovative puzzle-solving mechanics where the developers ran out of ideas for what to do with those mechanics about two-thirds of the way through, so the final challenge is, like, a stealth section or something.
