I did not have high hopes for this film, and it met my expectations. The kills were lame and uninteresting... almost like they wanted a PG rating. Cary Elwes apparently needed a quick paycheck. That s...

The Importance of a Tidy Home by @cgolden.bsky.social

A fun, creepy, story about Schnabelperchten and what it means to be home. Good quick hit to start the "Christmas and Other Horror Stories" anthology.

Central Europe can make XMAS terrifying!

Arsenal defensive depth

1 - Rici Gabby Wilo Timber
2 - backup CBs Rici Piero Mosquera Timber
3 - all 4 CBs hurt? MLS Rici Timber White

That's still the best defense in the PL

But lets stop pushing our luck

The way Kelleher defends the goal, Arsenal should just be firing shots at the goal from every location. He spills rebounds for fun. Shoot & follow.
