P.S I'm also wondering why those textures fail to load in the first place, they are perfectly fine jpegs

Opened an issue for that: #91600

It's not specific to textures: the same thing also happens if Godot fails to import Blender files (#80049, #82888) and FBX files (#85402). And I don't think it's a new problem either.

As far as I can tell, this happens because the editor re-tries the import as soon as the progress dialog closes and the main editor window gains focus again.

Easy step to reproduce, remove write permisson to the .godot directory, open the editor, watch the chaos. I did this accidentally while doing docker things and it became owned by the root user.

I have a problem like this on a project with 4.2.2, but it only happens on macOS.

Edit: The textures do not seem to fail to import, but it tries to load a theme before importing the images which gives a bunch of errors. I also get the errors on Linux but everything imports just fine so they don't happen after restarting the editor.
