"Under the new rule, which goes into effect Sept. 30, food will no longer count toward calculations for eligibility for benefits, known as In-Kind Support and Maintenance, or ISM.
The new rule means SSI beneficiaries will no longer have to worry that the groceries or meals they receive from family or friends may reduce their monthly benefits, said Darcy Milburn, director of Social Security and health care policy at The Arc, a nonprofit organization serving people with developmental and intellectual disabilities.
The Social Security Administration, in turn, will no longer have to use its limited resources to document every time a beneficiary received free food and then cut their monthly benefit by as much as a third, she said."

Dungeon meshi really hits the nail on the head when it comes to the halfoots being infantalized. People in the manga talk as though the infantalization is simple misunderstanding; halflings are small and look young to most people, so they're assumed to be children. But this explaination doesn't make sense based on what we actually know. Halflings are regularly regarded as disposable labor, often to the point of being used as bait for monsters. This is not the way one would treat a child, but it IS the way one would treat an animal, or property. Halflings are infantalized because their labor and their lives are useful to other races, and imagining them as a helpless and naive lesser people is an easy-to-swallow justification for their dehumanization.

five recipes for an exciting life (in my opinion)
spending enough time creating things with your hands (baking, drawing, scrapbooking, doodling, crocheting, journaling and so on)
keeping track of things like pretty skies, milestones, happy memories, appointments you're looking forward to
listening to music that genuinely makes you feel happy and energetic
making a habit of reaching out to people in a way that's comfortable to you (i send my dad songs he might like, my friend sends me monthly life updates)
being kind to all your five senses → like investing in a scented candle or essential oil dispenser or body mist, having a soft blanket or socks (or a soft animal to pet), listening to birdsong or the rain, looking at the sky more often, and having your favorite foods enough times
