 A tisket, a tasket,
A shiny silver casket...

A friend of mine owns and manages a funeral home in Massachusetts' Several years ago invited me to take pictures of his display room. It was, uh... interesting.

 @a3e2a07b If I wasn't an atheist, and hadn't already decided I want to be burned or composted, I would be SO interested in a cool casket. :)

That's a high-end box right there.

 @a3e2a07b It's just a fancy, overpriced box. 🤷‍♂️

I've got a prepaid contract w/the Neptune Society and I'm being cremated.

No ONE is going to care when I die.  I'm ok with that & I don't need a gravestone or other artifice to make note of it.

When you're dead, your dead.  So says this atheist.  So, enjoy LIFE as much as possible while you're ALIVE!!! 🥳
