Because the GQP is terrified by the idea of white people being a minority of the population. They're afraid they'll be treated the way they treat all the not-white/cis/straight/christian people now.
They only want white babies to be in better supply.
@kevinrns #gop wants to increase the #domesticsupplyofinfants for what? Factory slavery ?
Anyone surprised by this hasn't been paying attention.
"Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders (R) signed into law this week legislation that rolls back significant portions of the stateβs child labor protections.
...
A bill advancing in Iowa would allow 14 & 15-yr-olds to work... in meatpacking plants and would shield businesses from civil liability if a youth worker is sickened, injured OR KILLED on the job."

I'm still looking for a job. Anybody need a programmer in the San Francisco Bay area? I'm a python programmer with experience in C/C++/Java/JS, I've done a bunch of CI/CD/SRE in the recent years, lots of tooling and back end web dev, and I've got a good deal of amateur experience doing reverse engineering and embedded development.
(I've done devops work but I'm trying to move away from that because too often it turns into just "ops", and I am a programmer.)

Welp. Guess it was bound to come for me eventually. I was hit by the most recent round of layoffs at the tech company I work at. So if anyone in my network in Toronto hears of comms/PR or writing gigs, hit me up!
Flick the switches on and off really fast, and see if any of your neighbors start a dance party.
Unless you're a woman. Or LGBT. Or not white. Or not christian. Or have children. Or like to have power during winter freezes. Or like to eat during winter freezes.

Elder dogs deserve extra attention and care. They've earned it.
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
