Hats off to The Alien Trilogy soundtrack performed by Cliff Eidelman and the Royal Scottish National Orchestra. It includes music from the first three ALIEN movies and they've done a great job of it. Brilliant album.
I'm listening to it while I work so I'm getting the energy from all three films.

I missed it! Ah well, I can still throw a wrench into the works today.
Happy May Day, everyone. Today is the Christmas of anarchist holidays so we hope you're getting out. If you haven't found an affinity group in your town, see if anything is being organized today. It's a great chance to see what groups are active in your area.
May Day 🛠️

Weaponized geese. A brilliant but risky move by the Canadian Armed Forces. Let's not give them tanks, though: they're lethal enough as is.

I could go for some dystopic revenge porn. Oligarchic bad guy overkill, anyone?
Dystopia as a genre often becomes less popular when reality is itself a dystopia. People want escape and it makes sense. We'd like to remind that Radon is looking for Dystopia stories that feature the fight/rebellion/hope of the characters within. Inspiration that we can all apply to the real world.
