@BonesOfTheMoon Funerals are bourgeoisie BS. $ 700 cremations include a cardboard box

A funeral I attended recently had a plywood coffin and a bunch of felt-tip pens for people to write messages with. At another one a while back, the coffin was wickerwork.

I used to know a guy who embalmed his own wife (yes I'm serious!) who offered to get me a deal when the time came for cheap cremation but sadly he died first.
