**How to Take Care of Yourself When You're Sick**  
How to Adult - March 28, 2018

I'm still in the hospital, probably out next week. Needless to say, I'm not in the best place to do regular posts. So I thought I'd share the corniest, nominally on topic health video I could find. I think it contains multiple layers of irony and sincere, decent advice. It's almost like an anthropological documentary to me – how normies and non-disabled people do illness. It's adorable, isn't it?

Have a nice, healthy weekend!
