i know we're all sick of self-care being a marketing tactic now, but i don't think a lot of us have any other concept of self-care beyond what companies have tried to sell us, so i thought i'd share my favorite self-care hand out

“Our lives may be the result of contingencies and coincidences, random perturbations in the fabric of space-time. But randomness isn’t the principle through which we understand our lives. We retroactively craft plots and character arcs for ourselves so that our own journeys would make sense.”

Oh, and so you don't get surprised like I did, have an avoid: Hillsdale College is a conservative Christian site and not a valid MOOC place. Sign up with them and you will get things like THIS IS WHY THE LEFT IS TURNING YOUR KIDS TRANS AND GAY in your inbox.
