I think a lot of young people do not know this. I am older than ICE. I remember when it was created after 9/11, and it was so clearly racist bullshit from the very start. It is not a fact of life for ICE to exist. It can and must be destroyed.

@shawntomkin.bsky.social My FIL (an artist in his 80s) is visiting. He has no relationship with TTRPGs. He and I were chatting about the sci-fi he read when he was young, and it made me think to show him Starforged. He flipped through some pages, then more, slower.

I have been thinking about giving my partner a quest: to wander the wonders of itch.io, and bring me something(s) back. He does not currently know what itch is. He does not play rpgs, though he enjoys a select few AP shows. What he does know pretty well is me. What would he find that I wouldn't?

Nickel and Dimed. This was years ago and I was a college sophomore who had never even seen real poverty. I had always had empathy but this made me face the details, the logistics, and the precarity of minimum-age work. It changed the way I looked at the world. And it's worse now than it was then.

Our reporting does not make racial or genetic generalizations, but simply cites experts who have experience with the industrial process in U.S. and Chinese factories.
I can also point you to the comments of Patrick McGee, the author of the new book "Apple In China" , on a recent podcast appearance said: "The tasks that often are being done to make iPhones require little fingers. The fact that it's young Chinese women with little fingers like that actually matters. Apple engineers will talk about this."
