Currently reading, by Lea Ypi (only in Italian for now) about migration, citizenship, and the capitalist state. Second book from her, plus various interviews and articles. Highly recommended
@plain_form @typographica I am now ordering the issue, thank you for the reminder!
Very excited to speak at @typecon this year!
