  • Arranging to having yiur future postmortem body used to fertilise plants, is a really cool option, in my opinion. A green/natural/eco funeral is one way to, basically, do that, and it’s pretty widely avalable too, in most places.

    And cardboard coffins work, and tend to be accepted by mat green burial sites. Woven willow coffins, untreated wood coffins, as well as just classic biodegradable shrouds, are several other options that used for this. On that subject,Hheres some resources that might be helpful with planning for a green burial, ahead of time (and ensuring that thise wishes are carried out later) , for those that this appeals to and that haven’t allready: https://www.orderofthegooddeath.com/resources/green-burial/ (the order also has information on n. o. r/terramation/composting, and on aquamatuon/water-cremation options, both of wchich are compatible with the ‘become plant ferileser if yiu wnat to’ idea) and https://www.greenburialcouncil.org/interactive-maps.html

    And to mention green burials in another jurisdiction, , http://www.naturaldeath.org.uk/index.php?page=find-a-natural-burial-site

    Hopefully some of that may be helpful, or intresting. tdl

    tdlr:arranging for a simple post death thing for yourself, and becoming fertiliser for there’s, is cool, and generally very doable too.

    yeah, too many school authorities do act taht way. For a approach going more in the opposite direction, see, for example: https://piped.video/watch?v=dk60sYrU2RU (maybe skip to aa minute in. presented, the idea, in that case, by sugata mitra. The Talk is not new, but still relevant I’d think, and relates to the post here. ) 💻🖥️

    For anotger, similar, but also different example, see https://piped.video/watch?v=WNuv0_MLrKg this one specifically mentions phones early on, too.

    So if you believe in, or are open to the idea, that the approach in in the main meme post isn’t the best, then the stories in the piped videos might be of some intrest to you.

    tdlr: 🎶you can use your phone if yiu want to, yiu can leave your technophobe schoolmaster behind,… 🎶🎧


  • I like this idea. I might also reccomend, among other, perhaps similar, ideas to get a similar effect, and make use in this way of they ground floor house :.

    • putting out a ‘free’ table/stand. like, a table, with a sign, and stufd on to, fthats free, die passerby. Some have been quite sucessfull.

    -‘tiny free library.’. especially if there isn’t one nearby allready. there’s quite a lot of fun designs for these our there, to fit whatever style ore space. and, you could add halloween themed book to it, or any books pretty much. local bord banned a book you liked? add a copy to your local tiny library. ads 2,… and some complementary skeleton themed bookmarks.

    –a bench. nice place to rest. maybe addaa tree or aomwthing for ao. e shade of in a especially warm region. benches are fun, or can be. and yiu can paint it in oranges and bakam strops, with bays, and pkinh.

    … -ooh, and you coild be like that one, well probably more than one, house that keeps up some halloween decor for longer. a way to signal to potential trick or teeter and show personality oerhaps?

    -±idk, hallowwn is fun., for many ppl. happy nextaand future Halloweens. Halloween 🦇 🎃 🦇 🎃


  • I don’t think I’ve seen it mentioned in this thread so far, so I may suggest: Some nature documentaries, particularly more recent ones, can be pretty scary, and beutufulaa and intresting too, but also scary (and not particularly gory, that’s nit generally the focus) . Dread/state-of-tge-climate sort of scary, among others, and no less scary for that I think. Nature documentary movies.

    Some hosted by Netflix, are free on their yt cahnnel, i think.
