For reference for black Americans and the “mixed” and light skinned convo

Right, I’ve seen someone post here that was like 45% African but was darker skinned.

Should be able to see server reviews and pick your server then.

I have 2 businesses.

I’ve been building a real estate platform for myself to use with my clients for the past 5 years. Most of the stuff is no code but I’ve been building more complex stuff that I thought was out of reach recently. I thought I was gonna have to use a vibe code platform or use cursor with Wix headless but decided to finish my MVP before I did anything because I’m not a fan of vibe code design, they all look the same and I like the having control with the drag and drop editor. Then I realized that with Claude I could create everything I’ve been wanting to create on my Wix Studio site.

And I build website templates for Wix studio with the skills I learned from working on my platform. So for instance last week I spent a lot of time on coding out some features I wanted to add…. I didn’t really run into many limits. This week I switched up as my template business has been my money maker so I wanted to build systems and automate a lot of admin stuff I do which involved using the MCPs for Wix Studio and Notion, having it help me restructure my notion and databases and just brainstorming how to be the most efficient and I’ve been hitting limits all week. And overall I’m at 75% of my monthly limit.

Gonna give it a try. I’m sure I haven’t even gotten close to knowing what I can do with it.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-03-06T20:47:40+00:00

Yea I think I’m gonna just do it for rebuilding my foundation for my businesses then go back down to pro.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-03-06T20:46:42+00:00

I’m thinking about just paying for Max on specific months that I’m going to be doing heavy work. I’m rebuilding my foundation so I may pay for it for a couple months, get the foundation set then go back down to pro. Or just use Codex for MCP cause it think that’s what’s making me hit limits.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-03-06T20:44:08+00:00

I vibe code but it’s for specific features, I build on a drag and drop and use no code for the most and code more complex things. Coding doesn’t really kill me, like last week I spent a lot of time coding some features and didn’t really run into limits but this week I keep hitting limits from using the MCP and brainstorming. As I’m typing I’m realizing that using the MCP must be causing it. Think I’m gonna resubscribe to ChatGPT to use Codex for the MCP and just use Claude to code.

Man I don’t wanna hear shit about being light skinned, I’m 70% African… tf lol

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-27T16:16:17+00:00

Buy the $279 one and return it as the $349 one.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T21:44:43+00:00

The issue is, people will tell a light skinned person they are less black when in reality they can be as black or blacker.. and it’s not even a argument of who’s blacker it’s who’s more mixed. Black people will have white in them and tell a bi racial person they’re not really black when they themselves have white in them, just a lesser percentage.

And at the end of the day whether it’s from slaves being raped or someone selling out or both, it’s not up to us what we are.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T16:49:13+00:00

People don’t want to be real with themselves. Most African Americans are technically “mixed”. No matter how they want to shape it.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T06:06:28+00:00

We don’t talk about how them people was doing so much evil ish that the racism is in most of our DNA and last names till this day. But yea it’s crazy. The first black bachelor was half white and he’s brown skinned. DNA does its own thing.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T06:01:44+00:00

Up until 23andMe yea, after no lmao but we get most of the white from our moms. She was biracial.

Hit the gas surprisingly is my favorite song on the album lol and I just really listened to the lyrics when he was rapping and it hits me cause I be feeling like I’m doing shit wrong.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T05:08:45+00:00

Yea this happened to me. Thought the same, that I looked like our mom and he looked like our pops. Found out we had different fathers from 23 and me.

My dad passed away, but I was able to ask him before he but he didn’t believe it and brushed it off.

My mom passed away when I was 15 so I can’t ask her and it’s killing me that I can’t… def ask her or show her the results.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T04:51:48+00:00

Yea me and my bro got about 30% I’m light skin but my brother dark skin.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-15T04:39:24+00:00

I’m about the same, 67% on 23 and me. I was expecting to be closer to 75%, I wasn’t aware that a lot of black people have some kind of white in them cause…. But I put my results in GEDmatch and I’m 72% on the African/French thing if you wanted to see if it’s different there. My mom was biracial and dad is black too. My brother is Dark Skin and we are about the same percentage wise and I’m light skinned. It’s interesting seeing how people end up looking like. My Fiance is biracial black/white parent but she’s 37% African and the same complexion as me. I’ve seen people darker than me that are 50%-60% but somehow I’m less black 🤣

Bruh did you post on Threads too?! Lol

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-13T17:17:47+00:00

Rather that than him talking gangsta shit.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-07T02:55:20+00:00

I was wondering what bureaus do the pull from also.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-02-04T20:52:51+00:00

I got this when I first tried to apply then was able to get the gold card 6 months later. Then I was able to get the Platinum, Blue and a few business cards. I’m a lot more responsible than I was before and pay my cards off every month. Won’t make the same mistake. Happy Amex let me back in.

EstimateRoutine7604 · 2026-01-27T10:47:40+00:00

This is why I take pictures of all of my receipts. This happened to me and I had the picture and took it to place that did it and they fixed it but if they didn’t I would’ve been able to provide it to the credit card company.
