====== Care, Self-care ======

==== (Politics of) Care ====

//"If self-care is just a way to ease the impact of an ever-increasing demand for productivity, rather than a transformative rejection of that demand, it's part of the problem, not the solution. For self-care to be anti-capitalist, it has to express a different conception of health."// For all we care, Crimethinc
