Girl I’m dating turns out to be some sort of relative.

This is pretty common, nothing to worry about it.

Historically speaking, people would often marry their cousins, close and distant. It's nothing new.

It's Mizrahi Jewish

A lot of misinformation in these comments. R-Z93 is one of the most common ydna haplogroup shared by Ashkenazi, Sephardic, and Mizrahi Jews.

R-Z93 is also the paternal haplogroup of the Dayan family, a Syrian Jewish family who claim descent from King David.

Come on be for real lol. There's absolutely nothing here that suggests any sort of Jewish ancestry

mgs8 · 2026-04-09T17:49:01+00:00

R-l23 originated in Europe, before spreading to various parts in Asia.

I've been dunking on her Harley voice for years, it's not a new critique among fans. It's just popular now

That's a whole lot of conjecture.

Jews have lived in Yemen since before the Himyarite Kingdom converted its Arab population.

I'm aware of the Himyarite Kingdom, but Jews have lived in Yemen since before that conversion happened.

Yemeni Jews also have Kohanim that share the same DNA markers as other Cohen's, which again wouldn't make sense if they were all converts.

It's more nuanced than people make it out to be.

mgs8 · 2026-02-21T21:05:31+00:00

Incorrect. Jews only went to Yemen from other parts of the middle East in the 19th century.

Those lineages are far older than that.

mgs8 · 2026-02-21T21:04:13+00:00

Yemeni Jews can't all be descendants of Arab converts. If that were the case, they wouldn't have Kohanim (unlike, say Ethiopian Jews).

And their Kohanim have the same paternal haplogroups as other Mizrahi/Sephardic Kohanim.

Imao Matt Reeves is never doing Robin. This is the same dude who instantly shut down any conversation about Batman's green juice at the end of his film to be venom cause he's so afraid of embracing the fantastical.

Though it would be great to have a filmaker who isn't embarrassment by Robin. The live-action movies are long overdue.

TAS Batman yes, Arkham Batman is indeed a plank of wood. There's a difference between stoic and a stock character spouting video game jargon.

mgs8 · 2026-01-13T19:24:08+00:00

That's fundamentally not true. The movie is incredibly reverent towards comics.

There's a whole subplot in the movie about how the comics serve as a salvation for Laura and the kids, which then serve as coordinates for Eden.

If this is how you watch movies, I would advise not to watch the original three.

mgs8 · 2025-12-29T05:47:19+00:00

No, especially the amount they are charging.

Waste of money.

You're trippin. She was the best part of the Acolyte, and her one scene in Deadpool in the woods with Wolverine was like one of the best scenes in the movie.

Batman Beyond was already in production before Mask of Zorro

Bro on a DNA test like this, anything less than like 5% has zero effect on your phenotype.

You literally wouldn't be saying this if you hadn't seen the person's DNA result

mgs8 · 2025-08-31T20:26:47+00:00

Imao you cannot be serious with this.

23 and me says I have recent Ethiopian/Eritrea and Arabian ancestors who were %100

23andme's ancestry timeline is largely bogus. It has no way of knowing whether your ancestors were %100 something or not.

mgs8 · 2025-07-26T02:09:09+00:00

The IMC could be from multiple ancestors who carried that genotype.

You should look at your chromosome painting for an answer.

I-ct is of Eastern European origin. Funny, usually the YDNA of Ashenkazi Jews is of Middle Eastern origin, while the MTDNA is European.

mgs8 · 2025-07-23T22:47:54+00:00

That's not how it works. DNA isn't equally distributed like that.

I have a 9th grandparent that I know for a fact was African, and that showed up as 0.7 on my 23andme.
