The report aims to improve understandings of #daycentres among social care/health professionals & potential collaborators. It showcases the complexity of these services & their diversity, shedding light on what makes them multi-faceted ‘interventions’. 2/6

You can be forgiven for thinking the Great #Inflation Story is how a pandemic, a senseless war, and #monopolistic price-gouging temporarily drove up prices, prompting calls to crush workers and suppress wages in order to "reduce demand" for goods:

For 2+ yrs, Shih Shui-huan's morning routine consisted of making 2 bento boxes replete w/ the flavors of her hometown, #Tainan. Oddly enough, the bachelorette lived alone in employee lodgings as a Taipei postal worker. She was also severely malnourished—weighing 38kg upon arrest.
