“‘Homeland.’ ‘Fatherland.’ When politicians use these words, it usually precedes murder on a grand scale.” - A. Setrakian

“Nobody... nobody trusts anybody now, and we’re all very tired.” - R.J. MacReady (Helicopter Pilot, US Outpost #31)

Not convinced switching from Killing Joke to Joy Division is going to make doomscrolling more uplifting/life-enhancing. Ah, well.

Managed to bag some bargains when sourcing supplies for the current retrospective.* This beauty was a double-dip for two reasons - the other being the bonus disc.
