condos that are too small for kids.
? Kids don't take up very much space. Certainly less than normally sized dogs(not counting the small ratlike creatures which seem inexplicably popular these days).

Liberals do not want healthcare costs cut, whatever gave you the impression that they did?

It sure seems like all the liberal examples of 'women dying because of abortion bans!!!' were, well, obviously not that, but the thing they actually were seems to be mostly EMTALA violations. Hospitals obviously violate EMTALA if they think they can get away with it.
IIRC there was a pilot program in parts of Texas to guarantee EMTALA care gets paid for, but it was canceled because illegals were benefiting from it.

which was way more effective than any attempt to build a black-only community in the US or elsewhere would have been.
Indeed, this experiment has been run. Black supremacists are just schizophrenic antisemites and black separatist experiments are gigantic failures that always seem to have justifiable- and usually banal- reasons for getting shut down when the authorities intervene.
If you'd like a separatist enclave in the US, start an insular religious community and make sure the girls wait until 18 before they get married. Society is fine with it that way.

Orania and the USA are very different because there are approximately seven zillion conservative towns with an all white population in the USA because no blacks or asians bothered to move there.

This is because all-white rural communities are a dime a dozen in the US. Seriously, if your goal is 'avoid blacks', it's just a lot easier to move to the towns which just... don't have them. 100% of people who moved there were making an intentional political statement.

Sure, willing to believe that. But the point is the government is going to start adding non-catastrophic care they cover, often through rational cost-benefit analysis(vaccines etc) and then expanding the list will become a political issue with a ratchet that only goes one way.

The reasons this is unworkable are political- the ‘thé government should cover ozempic/IVF/whatever’ platform is always going to be more popular than the ‘keep universal healthcare only for catastrophic’ platform.
My preferred solution- all children on Medicare, hospitals get guaranteed reimbursement for EMTALA care, low-coverage plans and low-risk pools are legal again.

Ah, but medieval Europe was monogamous, and even if bastards clearly existed they probably had a much lower survival rate than legitimate children, and lower odds of reproducing even if they survived. The medieval European social structure tended to result in more eligible women than men in most social classes for long stretches at a time.

Not really, no- indios in Latin America are very heavily the descendants of settled tribes. There's only a few thousand Chichimeca even left and they occupy the same very bottom of the racial hierarchy that Mayans do. Latin American racial snootiness is mostly about being whiter, sometimes with a dose of hybrid-vigor ideas, not about differences between various tribes.

As opposed to 'Mgubu the witless'?
Aside from the parallelism in 'people of small hats/people of slanted eyes' it doesn't seem offensive in isolation either.

Do the Anglicans have the cash to give much? My impression is that while, like most established churches in the west, they have substantial real estate holdings, they don't have enough liquidity to even cover expenses and are reliant on generally-earmarked investments to keep the lights on, pay salaries, etc.

Hapas just look white. 90% of the Cherokee just look white. Most white-hispanic babies look white. White middle easterner crosses too, but in fairness middle easterners are pretty white looking already(although I know a Maronite/Italian couple whose kids look, on average, whiter than either of them). Even the white/black crosses you're probably thinking of look more white than the popular portrayal; America's definition of 'black' just encompasses people of mixed ancestry. There are other countries, like South Africa and much of Latin America, where that's not the case and they're not perceived as looking black.

I live in a mixed neighborhood. It will, like most such neighborhoods, be clearly Hispanic eventually, but for now thé children playing soccer/basketball in the street are white.
In Texas fireworks go on sale thé day after Christmas, February 25th, April 16, and st John’s eve(or respect life day as a state holiday). They are hard cut off on New Year’s Eve, Texas Independence Day, San Jacinto day, and Fourth of July. This controls thé festivities. Possession or personal use of fireworks out of season is a minor thing- but dealers operating out of season it is not. Hence fireworks run out by, like, today.

Meh. Where I live there are four days a year when it’s legal to shoot fireworks(two state independence days, fourth, and new years). There will be fireworks shot off the day before and after, of course, but not for months at a time. Not worth worrying about.
Bookmarking for a response later- TLDR is continuity with JPII, encouraging moves for the conservatives, but very mild disappointments for the liberals.
Leo has appointed mostly the bishops that an impartial observer would have expected a replacement level pope to appoint, in a way which points to the return of the influence of the nuncios over pope Francis' progressive cardinal friends. All eyes are on Chicago and New York- both Archdioceses which are highly political appointments and have bishops who've reached retirement age. One, Cardinal Dolan, is generally considered 'conservative' and the other, Cardinal Cupich, is extremely progressive. These, and the prefects of causes of the saints and of the causes of bishops(both cabinet level officials in the Vatican), will likely be the first major political appointments made by the new pope.
In the Vatican Curia(central administration), pope Leo has confirmed the figures in place under pope Francis. This is customary for new popes. He appointed a nun as secretary(#2) of the dicastery for religious life, but as pope Francis had left a nun as prefect to appoint a bishop as her number two would be a scandal on its own. There are no indications as to who will be appointed to fill his old seat as prefect of the dicastery for the causes of bishops, nor who will be appointed to replace the extremely aged Cardinal Semeraro as prefect of the dicastery for the causes of the saints. He has, however, made a schlew of appointments to the boards of dicasteries(cabinet-level departments) in the Vatican, which indicate a desire for a more conservative direction. Specifically worth highlighting are Cardinal Marengo, the youngest cardinal, who was appointed to a position requiring frequent travel to Rome from his apostolic assignment in Ulanbaatar(yes, Mongolia has a cardinal), allowing him to build an influence network before the next conclave(which, given the ages of cardinals and likely lifespan of the pope, would put him as a senior figure); and Archbishop Fischer of Sidney, who was considered sidelined under pope Francis for his conservative views and, appointed to the board overseeing interreligious dialogue, will be able to grow in influence ahead of his likely appointment as a cardinal. Also worth noting is the high percentage of African bishops appointed; these tend to caucus with the furthest-right faction of western bishops and if the trend continues, this forseeably gives traditionalists more power and influence.
His public facing actions are not particularly noteworthy; he is essentially emulating JPII.

Is there anything to thé theory that the relatively early shift to love matches over arranged marriages has selected Western Europeans for greater phenotypic attractiveness?

I mean, I can envision an America where Asians run black-like racial advocacy. It's just not very plausible.

I did not find French 'easier' by knowing Latin and Spanish. I suppose they made it easier to learn each other, but French is pretty different from the other Romance languages grammatically and in pronunciation.

They mostly have not done this. The black and indigenous minorities who are poor performers have tried; the once-oppressed Chinese have been content with their rising standards of living.

Mgubu isn't smart enough to recognize when he's gotten the better deal. People of small hats mostly are, and for all of chairman Xi's attempts at becoming grand Chinaman of the race, people of slanted eyes are too.

In the Tulsa area? Connected to St. Mary’s up in Kansas, I presume?
Clear Creek Monastery(https://infogalactic.com/info/Clear_Creek_Abbey). No official connection; it's a daughterhouse of Fontgombault which isn't technically affiliated with apostolic work.
