  1. CMS is ending the Medicare Part D Premium Stabilization Demonstration on December 31. The program paid a monthly subsidy toward standalone drug plan premiums, $15 per member in 2025 and $10 in 2026, and capped how far those premiums could rise year over year. Without it, the increases land in 2027 plan pricing.

    National Campaign for Justice has a letter to Congress asking them to preserve it.

  11. @TimWardCam You know, as I get closer to "retirement age", I'm finding out how much the #CaptalistSystem really fails folks who are #Seniors and who aren't #Millionaires or #Billionaires -- forcing them to have to do a mind-boggling amount of research to figure out if a Medicaid program will cover certain costs or even if you are covered if you leave the state to visit someone. It's horrible! And imagine folks with #MemoryIssues having to sort through all this BS? It's quite cruel! One of my friends who is a veteran was asked what his retirement plan was. His reply was "Drop dead in my vending booth" (he vends to make ends meet). Yikes! That's no way to take care of people -- especially those who have served!

  13. Axios: #Seniors won't "complain" if they miss a #SocialSecurity check, #Lutnick says (WOW)
    #Commercesecretary #HowardLutnick suggested this week that only "fraudsters" would complain about missing a monthly #SocialSecurity check, and that most people wouldn't mind if the government simply skipped a payment

  14. #Movies #Film

    I just finished streaming the #movie #Thelma (2024) which was named the the best #InterGenerationalFilm by the #AARP during it's #MoviesForGrownUps award show that just aired last night.

    #JuneSquibb who plays the lead was nominated for #BestMovieActress but lost to #DemiMoore in #Substance who won that award.

    The movie is about a #Senior #Woman who gets scammed on the #Net & takes it's upon herself to get her $ back. There was a gun involved but think of it as the #Beekeeper without any killing. LOL! 😉

    It's a delightful movie which portrays the #elderly in a truthful but respectful & amusing light & also speaks to the #intergenerational #wisdom & support that #seniors can provide to the young.

    Here's a link to #Wiki's webpage regarding the film: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thelma_(

    I'd rate it an 8 out of 10 & just placed an order for the #DVD.

    Watch it if & where you can.

  15. *Updated.*
    Hello. I joined Friendica in October of 2024, after Facebook closed their Basic Mobile site (not app). I live in New Jersey and am forty-one years old. Some of my interests include studying dandyism, nineteenth-century grammar, Upper Received Pronunciation, British history, and the Regency. I like coffee, tea, wine, nasal snuff, cooking, hot baths, reading British literature, watching nature and historical documentaries, gardening, hot weather, and playing cards and dice. I also love cats. In classical music, I enjoy Baroque through a bit of early Romantic, while in popular, I usually prefer 1950's through 1970's. I love theatre (especially English and Viennese operettas, Edwardian musical comedies), and some Regency/Georgian plays. I prefer antique menswear and accessories. It's my dream to either buy a genuine Edwardian suit or have one commissioned. I love wit, wordplay, and dry humour without vulgarity. My parents are lesbians, and I am a huge gay rights supporter, but I stop short of using singular they and promoting the idea of more than two sexes, though you can certainly lean more towards one while being the other (as I do being a masculine woman), or change from one to the other via hormones, surgery etc. I have been totally blind since I was two months old, due to Retinopathy of Prematurity.

    I am happily childfree and am not religious. I hardly ever write about politics. I tend to get along better with people older than I, but I will accept friends twenty-one and over. I have no understanding of chronic illness, anxiety, depression, loneliness, etc. I enjoy hearing about cats, cooking or gardening adventures, antiques, and interesting life stories.

    This is my journal. Anyone can read or comment, whether or not he is a member.

  16. It was a pure coincidence, but on this #GivingTuesday I also had the chance to do my first workshop with the cibervoluntarios.org network on safe Internet at the adults' school in #Aldaia, my hometown.

    This is the first time I do a #training of this type, and I loved how interested and proactive the attendants were. I'm sure I'll continue giving time to this #NGO to help people to be safer in their online activities.
