Sorry, Ian, but this said "non-religious."

UFO Citybusters @iankumohara.bsky.social · Jan 29

Post a non-religious pic you think of as holy

Candid photo I took of Marchie Archie Peck shooting a promo in front of a blue vinyl flag while Bryce observes. The setting is in a back storage room of a community center. There are multiple lights in bad focus around Archie because we had a budget of $0.83 this is indie wrestling.
