Comment on What happens when people die with metal on or on them?
CaptObvious@literature.cafe 11 months agoIt can be seen that way. Neil deGrasse Tyson agrees with you. OTOH, it’s a way to conserve cemetery space and reduce the environmental impact of graveyards.

Sure, but cremation isn’t the only other alternative.

trees are cool. literally a and metaphorically. having your posymoryem body, turned into a tree, is a relly cool option, in my opinion.good thing is that a it’s pretty widely avalable and doable too, in many places. 💀🌱 🌳 🌳🌲🌳🌲🌲🌱
Heres some resources that might be helpful with planning for that tree, aka green or natural, burial, ahead of time (and ensuring that thise wishes are carried out later) , if you haven’t allready: www.orderofthegooddeath.com/…/green-burial/ and www.greenburialcouncil.org/interactive-maps.html
and to metión green burials in another jurisdiction, , www.naturaldeath.org.uk/index.php?page=find-a-nat…
Hopefully some of that may be helpful.

Thanks for sharing a branch from your knowledge tree!
That was a (bad) pun, tr-hee hee!
But really, I can’t wait to become a tree so I can throw apples at tin people.

An animal does not know pain until it dies since most injuries are fatal without societal support. Humans know the pain of dying and prolong it. Which is more brutal?

My pain isn’t the knowledge of death, it’s the experience of life and I feel like sleeping outdoors, having to kill to eat etc. Wouldn’t be as pleasant of an experience as say eating a bowl of chili and watching a movie before crawling into a comfy bed
Also, when I step on my cat’s foot it meows like it hurts, not sure what you’re saying tbh not being snarky just confused what kind of pain do animals not experience? Depression, trauma etc?
