Printing and Paper Union
The Printing and Paper Union (German: Industriegewerkschaft Druck und Papier, IG DruPa) was a trade union representing printing industry workers in Germany.
The union was founded on 29 November 1948, to represent workers in book printing, type founding, planographic printing, gravure printing, image production, bookbinding and paper processing. A few journalists also joined, and in 1951, they were given their own section, the "German Journalists Union". In 1949, the union became a founder member of the International Graphical Federation.[1][2]
By 1988, the union had 150,288 members.[3] The following year, it merged with the Arts Union, to form the Media Union.[2]

gollark: Plus it might be dependent on long-term environmental things or genetics, in which case good luck.
gollark: I would assume it's because the immune system still isn't extremely well-understood, and vaccination is easier and more consistent.
gollark: Huh, this somehow runs at 100 FPS.
gollark: The existing things I know of just use textures for IO as there's not any other way.
