"An elder is someone who is older than olive trees" is about asking why does the Israeli state harm olive trees, and reflecting on how I came to loathe state borders as someone who grew up in Lebanon to a Palestinian grandfather -- plus my love of trains.

ICE is younger than Mountain Dew Code Red, the Roomba, the Shazam app, GameCube, Xbox, IntelliJ IDEA, Bratz dolls, Beyblades, the Radeon brand, Diablo II, the Ford Escape, etc., etc.

They are nothing in the span of human history and already given more ink than they ever deserve in anyone's story.

As a rule I'm nuanced on how media affects public perception

Police procedurals make us think law enforcement officers are better than they are and normalize the extrajudicial killings of ordinary people.

I think we should stop making them. And for that to happen you should stop watching them.
