One recently-discovered benefit of being a woman my age is that I can call anyone sweetheart and its not inappropriate

Bought 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.

Its probably insulting that I felt the need to notify you about this. I usually try anything alcoholic but I suspect these have a creamy element which, no.

You could not leave the house without hearing someone go "get in mah belly!" and I had fully forgotten about it as a catchphrase.

I 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.

I 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.

Im just saying, if there were a simple way to make bagels in LA as good as in nyc they would've done it by now. The best LA bagels probably use a recipe invented and perfected over there. Even that only gives you a century or so of practice.

LA wins on produce but bagels need the northeast tapwater they were perfected on.

If elon were anywhere near this joyful and charming about his wealth, he'd be much less reviled with 100X the money Freddie had, btw. youtube.com/shorts/GG6Y8...

The concert on the parkway looked poppin but as soon as they said seek shelter from the weather, people acted right and filed out calmly.

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 05/07/2026
Watching 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.

Aging 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.

My 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.

I 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.

How 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.

I 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.

The 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.

One 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.

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 09/05/2026
My 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.

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/05/2026
I 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.

Aunt Iphrasis @thembithembi.bsky.social · 08/05/2026
It 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.

Its 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.

Some 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.

I'd sign up for that. A sourcebook with key excerpts from each and some relevant newspaper clippings/data for historical context. Id write my final paper with an abnormal psych angle.

I 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.

Too 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.

I'm going through this right now. I have just one more place to look then I have to accept its gone. I'm putting off looking at the last place because as relieved as O'll be if its there. Im not at all ready to not find it there.
