🐌’s Pace

#AARP #weneedyourhelpAARP #whereisAARP? I have a question for AARP. When are you getting organized to combat Trump and Musk’s plans to derail our Social Security?
When will you bring in the attorneys needed, make a plan, and rally your millions of members to action. Where do our dues go, if not to getting your direction and support RIGHT NOW. Not when our Social Security has already been stolen. It is almost too late. Just tell us what to do and we will fight, but we need strong leadership!

I think #AARP is really brilliant. They have really creative ways of looking out for the communities they serve.
I was really impressed with their tech advocacy when I worked on the Hill, and recently I learned that they have a bunch of online games that are available to members—a way to help spare people from predatory apps like candy crush.
I really like their approach!

#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.

#Movies #Films

After watching the #AARP's 2025 #MoviesForGrownUps Award show, I was also pleased to learned that I had watched almost every movie nominated for an a #GrownUp award (directly or indirectly), excluding TV shows which I do not watch as broadly :

These movies included:

Babygirl
The Brutalist
A Complete Unknown
Conclave
Gladiator 2
The Last Showgirl
Nickel Boys
The Order
Queer
September 5
The Substance
Super/man: The Christopher Reeve Story
Wicked

The only exceptions were:

Emilia Perez (which I'm going to watch tomorrow)
Hard Truths (which I plan to stream)
Sing Sing (which I'm streaming now)
Thelma (that I just streamed)

I've watched many other movies than these in the past year but I view the fact that I've watch so many of them mentioned on AARP's MFGU award show as a measure the quality of the movies that I choose to watch. 😎

#Movies #Films #AAPI

I just watched the #AARP's annual #MoviesForGrownUps (#MFGU) award show for 2025 on #PBS last night. You can find a list of the winners here:

aarp.org/entertainment/movies-

I always enjoy watching this show because it features the most "grown up" & intelligent movies made during the year. I also like it because the program is more tightly scripted & better organized than other award shows like the #Oscars & #GoldenGlobes.

MFGU winners often differ than those given for the Oscars & Golden Globes & this year I was pleased that they gave the #BestSupportingMovieActress award to #SF's #JoanChen for her performance in #Didi (the independent film about a #ChineseAmerican boy in Fremont in the 80's) produced & directed by #SeanWang who's work was recognized at #Sundance.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dìdi

Saw Didi at the Elmwood in Berkeley, just received the #DVD. Don't know if it's available to be streamed yet but, if it sounds like something you'd like to see, stream it if you can.

Bicycling Monterey 💚🌎🌍🌏

Thanks to Pam Marino @pammarino for bringing to our attention “Walk Every Street PG” montereycountynow.com/news/loc (January 23, 2025), and kudos to founders Ashley Edge and Amy Burkman. As Edge said, “You can drive all you want but to really know a place, you need to walk it.” (And that’s similarly true for people who bike vs drive.)
We encourage walking groups to consider including “walk audits” to identify for cities where infrastructure improvements are needed. As highlighted in the Resources / Los Recursos section on bikemonterey.org bikemonterey.org/resources, AARP teamed up with the League of American Bicyclists to create Bike Audit Tool Kits, in English and Spanish, and AARP has Walk Audit Tool Kits too. Print copies or downloads are available free. Anyone can do a walk or bike audit. In fact, the best are done by people with varying perspectives and mobility needs.
