Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Bought tix to see @tonybakerverified.bsky.social live in Nov like a person with her life together instead of ending up mad after the fact that I missed an event like usual. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 19/08/2026am i the only person who confidently orders something online but comes to the realization its getting returned before it even arrives? Its a problem. 000

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/08/2026You could not leave the house without hearing someone go "get in mah belly!" and I had fully forgotten about it as a catchphrase. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I didnt' expect to lol so much at the first one. Yet halfway thru the second one "the spy who shagged me" I''m kinda regretting trying to watch it. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I decided to rewatch the austin powers movies. It dawned on me that the 90s were as long ago from today was the 60s were from the 90s. I'm old. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 03/08/2026reently found out my little cousin & his wife are expecting. Its so bittersweet because yay but watching my first cousins all become grandparents is some real cruel march of time ish. 010

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 05/07/2026The concert on the parkway looked poppin but as soon as they said seek shelter from the weather, people acted right and filed out calmly. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 05/07/2026Watching the concert on the parkway from home on nbc was the right decision. Seeing Jill and tierra whack together gives me the warmest & fuzziest of feels but not in this heat seeing jill in that hat, which is for me a fashion miss. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 19/06/2026Aging is a privilege & blessing yada yada but I'm sick of discovering new ways middle age is affecting my body. This week I concluded I can no longer eat pickled ginger. Next I have to determine if its the ginger, the pickling, or both causing the problem. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 16/06/2026My big takeaway from trying to look out for my loved ones is accepting that some people insist on letting problems become emergencies before taking action. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 16/06/2026I need to chat with the producers of phillys 4th of july concert so my expectations will be managed.Why lie, I'd need a detailed run of show to psych myself up to go out to the parkway. 100
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 11/06/2026Am I the only person whose gmail inbox has suddenly gone rogue with spam and mail from lists I did not sign up for? 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 06/06/2026How do I explain that I don't want to hear about anything that's none of my business or beyond my control without coming off as dismissive/rude? Its for my mental health. 120
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 31/05/2026I can’t get past the thought that had Michael Jackson let his vitiligo take its course the rest of the world would’ve ended up applying blotches to our skin to look like him. I understand why he took the lightening route but it couldve been different. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 12/05/2026The only thing I hate more than people acting entitled to a favor is people who do favors with strings/complaints attached. Like thx for helping me for free but if the price is added anxiety & criticism its too expensive. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 10/05/2026Can somebody please tell me they've gotten mosquito bites recently because i fear its just a me thing. And no I was not in the woods. 100
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 09/05/2026One thing I liked about the Michael movie is its focus on his perfectionism. I'm generally anti post-humous music releases, but theres ZERO chance any music Michael Jackson died before finishing is the way he'd want it. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 09/05/2026My latest observation about Michael Jackson is that I can pick a album/era to run into the ground and end up with a new/old favorite song. I havent gone into any posthumous releases so Ive heard it all at least once but I'll mess around and hear an old song differently. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/05/2026I had a fun experience in a black theater seeing Michael and it brought out a few new elements of his story that I liked. But I'mma need the angela basset joint as a palate cleanser. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/05/2026It took me a few days of processing but Im settled in not having much cared for Michael as a film.The cast did great, but otherwise what was good about it was just Michael Jackson. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Its going to be a long rest of my life becoming a dinosaur for knowing how to find information without AI let alone without the internet. Someday AI will be good enough to takeover and I guess thats fine. I've stopped trying to save humanity from itself. 020
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Some lady in another dept. checked my work against AI and suggested I revise the data that gemini flagged as inaccurate. My dept chair told her no, we use primary sources over here. I was looking at my email like YASSSS! She turned it into,😔 I just meant you might want to double check. Yeah right. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 06/05/2026I hate how my brain will work for years on a problem without my permission and one day suddenly the answer to a no longer relevant problem, pops to mind. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 05/05/2026A good rupaul drag race challenge is more interesting than the met gala red carpet 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 04/05/2026I hadnt thought very hard about michael jackson in years until seeing Michael this weekend. The way hes a specific product of the black American experience is so remarkable to me and it starts with my understanding why he had a complex about it but still wishing he'd left his nose alone. 010

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 01/05/2026holy gen x, eric stoltz is on the latest law & order and it took me forever to recognize him because his hair is white and he aged like men of his complexion tend to 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 30/04/2026Too bad king charles isnt disgraceful enough to come here and demand the US go back under british rule. They gave us a 250 year trial period and we failed the test. As long as I dont have to go over there or eat the food I'll be a britsh subject to get out from under the current us regime, idc. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 26/04/2026I'm trying to figure out why of all the presidencies I've lived through nobody has survived multiple failed public shooting attempts but this guy. Something is not right about it. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 25/04/2026I'm posting this pic for everyone to make sense of even though it mainly made me think of something @mewefree.bsky.social would have an opinion on. 120
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 13/04/2026Most of my life I thought I was suffering from seasonal allergy-induced migraines. IDK why atmospheric pressure change sensitivity never entered the conversation but after tracking my symptoms against pressure changes for a while the cause of my ailments is clear. 030
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 13/04/2026I was doing pretty well until I went to lay out my real jewelry to wear for the first time in ages but cant find it. Hopefully it fell behind the dresser but until I find it I'm functioning under a thick layer of anxiety. 000
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Just getting that off my chest now so I dont stumble into a politics conversation later tonight while trying to have a happy time. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 10/04/2026Meanwhile the signs of dementia, fallling asleep, and other age-related deficits are only in the top 5 of the problems in the executive branch right now. Remember 2 years ago joe losing his train of thought during a debate had the party ready to send him to the glue factory but he wasnt THIS. 030
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 10/04/2026He deserves his rest, but had Biden stayed in the race, both he and his people would be rolling along sanely. It goes without saying that Kamala would have us together too, but the ppl who called on Biden to step down need to make some noise about the current president's dementia now. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 30/03/2026I used to watch cbs sunday morning and 60 minutes every week. It helped me feel informed and well-rounded. Now they make me anxious whether its by design or just a reflection of reality. 121
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 28/03/2026Why do the people being questioned by the police on tv act so offended when they realize they’re a potential suspect? Its my fault for enjoying copaganda/crime procedurals but still. Avoid this trope. 020
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 27/03/2026@the-philadelphian.bsky.social My crush is cancelled. I got a good look and realized I made a grave mistake and hes possibly on the bus en route from some form of adult daycare, not a commute. 110
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 25/03/2026Whoo chile, Paradise got me twisted. I have trust issues from Lost so I cant take the vulnerability. Like if you feel me. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 24/03/2026trump 47 is even worse than kamala warned us it would be. She was too kind but nobody with sense needed that much convincing and the rest would've accused her of hyperbole. 020
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 23/03/2026its not worth complaining about but wtf it is certainly still winter in philly. Can we please get a break on something we cant control right now? Just this one thing out of many? 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Its so weird how st ides really had the entire hip hop community in commercials 30 years ago but I can't tell you the last time I saw any kind of advertising for no malt liquor. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mYEZ...youtube.comST IDES Commercial COMPILATION!!!

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 15/03/2026Im always rooting for everybody black awardwise but all I'm counting on from the oscars is seeing what the cast of sinners is wearing (them and teyana taylor only tbh). 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 14/03/2026They don’t tell you the dark side of weight loss where all your hoodies now make you look like John fetterman. 010
Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 13/03/2026If AI is so great and inevitable, how come every service and app is forcing it down our throats at every turn? "We're begging you to hurryup and try this AI thing you didn't ask for because AI is not going anywhere" Um ok. 020
