Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Shared the Important Reason She's Taking a Week Off for Self-Care

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, who's about to become the youngest Congresswoman ever this January, is taking some time for self-care. The Congresswoman-elect took to her Instagram stories on Monday to let her followers known she'd be starting a week of self-care, though she admitted she doesn't really know how to do that or what it entails.

After describing some of the self-care tips she's heard in the past (drink wine and watch Netflix, go to Cancun), she showed a photo of Amnesty International's signs for burning out, writing, "Self-care is important for activists because without we WILL burn out and walk away."

She continued, writing, "Confession time: I am so bad at this. Even though our story exploded 5 months ago, I’ve been campaigning nonstop for two years: through multiple jobs, double shifts, morning commutes on the subway, etc."

Ocasio-Cortez explained that before the campaign, she would do yoga multiple times a week, eat nutritiously, and take time to read and write for leisure. Then, once her campaign began, she says all that went out the window and instead, she found herself eating fast food for dinner and falling asleep in her jeans and makeup.

She isn’t stupid, but she is smart enough to outsmart the American Media.

Nah, I think she really is that stupid. It's her handlers that I am worried about. I wonder who is pulling her strings because you don't go from bartending and stealing other people's tips straight into Congress.

And it doesn't take much to outsmart the American Media. Obama did it and they were in love with him. There's Nasty Pelousy, Mad Max, Chuckie Cheese Schumer, etc., etc., etc.

Occasionl Kotex cannot afford an apartment but she’s off to Cancun for a week, of course she’s not paying for it. I’m sure she probably called a lobbyist and had them pay for it, even before she gets inaugurated.

She is outsmarting some freepers on here who think she is genuine dumb.

I believe she is playing dumb, it helps her get press, she is Trumping us.

She got us talking about her AGAIN.

Formerly peaceful Cancún continues to experience shocking levels of cartel violence. At least eight individuals were murdered over the past weekend.

Is that why they are sending her to Cancun. That explains a lot.
