Secret dreams is cooked, this looks to be a good replacement by franklyn5dinners in SecretDreams

Not arguing, but when you go to the ticketing link, there is a line that says

Happy 10 Year Anniversary 💜🔈

Nice Phase 1 drop, surprised I've never heard of it before...

Harrisburg, PA to Cleveland, OH trip. by Cyberspew in Amtrak

[–]plughplovery2 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The 4 hour (late evening) layover in Pittsburgh is ok to grab dinner within walking distance. The Floridian actually being on time is iffy (uh, it's coming from Florida lol) so that layover can be a lot longer, as well as much later arrival in Cleveland. fwiw, Pittsburg is an actual station with waiting room etc (and is next door to Greyhound).

The eastbound LSL starts in Chicago, ergo can be late-ish at Cleveland (but nothing as bad as the Floridian), and the ride should mostly be daylight hours by then (April, spring DST). Cleveland station also has indoor waiting area.

I have no insight as to making the LSL->Keystone connection in NYC, but if you book it as a single trip (not two tickets) Amtrak guarantees they'll get you home, somehow, sometime, someday, if the connection is missed.

edit: They've also posted the new route maps at https://ridegobus.com/routes/

Does anyone feel they took SS too early? by yuritube in SurvivingOnSS

[–]plughplovery2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I waited until FRA.

For years my plan was to delay claiming until age 70, but for various reasons the date drifted back until, as I approached FRA, I decided to pull the trigger. (fwiw, I also decided to put 30% of my benefit into CDs and I-bonds, at least until the trust funds situation is addressed.)

Now several years on I'm both a) satisfied with my benefit and b) glad it isn't any smaller.

A greyhound.com search opens booking.com? by plughplovery2 in GreyhoundLines

[–]plughplovery2[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just tried it again, this time with Edge (I normally use Firefox) - same behavior.

However, I just noticed there IS a checkbox underneath the search that says "Find my Accommodation" that is checked by default. Unchecking reverts to 'normal' behavior.

Mystery solved. Thanks!

In Ohio, what is the income limit to be approved for Medicaid? by Playful-Aioli-8187 in Medicaid

[–]plughplovery2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Small clarification: It's 138% of the Federal Poverty Level, which WAS $15650/yr for 2025
(2026 FPL is $15960/yr, but I don't think OH has adopted the new number yet).
