Having recently watched Andor, I think I'd like to be made into a brick and used as a weapon against fascists.
Fuck it, I wanna be cryogenically frozen, if I can have the chance of living hundreds of years in the future, no matter how slim, I'd rather be prepared.
The bog.
That's honestly pretty bog-standard. That's a term I learned on here a few days ago.
I want my nutrients returned to the earth.
That means that green burial, human composting, burial at sea, and aquamation are all options.
I absolutely do not want cremation. It’s an energy intensive process that also renders the deceased’s accumulated nutrients unavailable to other organisms.
This thread also reminds me that I need to revoke the organ donor status from my driver’s license. As much as I like / appreciate the concept, a viable organ donation requires dying in a hospital. I would prefer to pass outdoors in a natural setting that I feel connected to or, at worst, in my own home.
Could you leave the organ donor status just in case you die in a hospital?
I would like to remain dead
The way things are going, I fully expect to be turned into Soylent Green
Resurrected or uploaded.
If it is possible for the mind to survive the death of the body, I also think uploading would be fine. It's a risk to be sure, but not having a body would actually address a lot of my current disappointments.
If resurrection is possible, I'd like to think the death could be prevented. But, I'll take it if uploading is not available and death of the body is still inevitable.
Sky Burial!!!
I think just cremation. Get rid of this body suit. :)
I'm excited for what's next.
Shoot me out of a cannon
I don't give a fuck because I'm dead and won't be there to see it.
Do whatever you want with my corpse.
Something cheap for my family.
I told my kids to claim my skull for the mantle and compost the rest
I want my body donated to a body farm.
Organ donation process, then load my body in to my shitbox car along with as much of my bullshit that fits in it, light it all on fire and trebuchet it into a quarry or something.
I want to be explosively shot into space go back to being stardust.
Don't think I’ll have the capacity to care, but put me in the ground with nothing but a light porous cloth covering so all the nutrients and microorganisms can be utilized by nature.
I want my skin and muscle tissue removed, and then I would like to be shot into space.
It's playing a long con, and I might fall into a star before I ever get the chance, but it would be really funny if some space explorer encountered a floating human skeleton and got spooked.
You ever get rid of a couch by having that garbage truck with the grinder on the back chew up that couch in about 3 seconds and leave nothing but a tiny bit of sawdust on the pavement? I want that.
I would also like to become a tree! My grandma’s cabin that I spent a lot of time at growing up is right next to a national forest. I hope that type of service is more widely available when I die
I've organised to have my body donated to a medical school for dissection. It was quite complicated, lots of forms to be filled in and witnessed. My executor has to phone the university when I die & they send a van to collect me. They won't accept my body if I've died of something communicable, or it was eg some accident that left me too mangled. When they're done with me I'll be cremated and my name goes up on a plaque in a special garden.
Sky burial! Hack me up and feed me to animals and plants. That way I can at least give some of the energy back that I consumed in my life
If you want to be a tree, go cremation. Trees get their carbon from the air not the soil.
My wish has also been to become a tree actually.
Its not legal where i live but i prefer if my body was buried as is without coffin in a forest so flora and fungi can feast on my nutrients.
I've always thought sky burials are pretty cool, but as a person living in North America who has no plans to move to Tibet or take up Buddhism, that's completely impractical. Next best thing might be for my to be placed on a body farm.
I don't care it's not my body anymore. The people left behind can decide.
If I can have anything, I want to explode into a bunch of butterflies.
If only real options are available, I am hoping composting is legal by then. Just be turned back into dirt and plants.
