With everything *gestures widely* going on the past week I forgot to share this excellent piece by @Vahn16, who I talked to about grief, & how people have always used tech to help them mourn & make sense of death.

Dominated by just two companies, the Australian funeral industry leaves little room for independent funeral homes and fair market competition.

This week we’ll be launching a new series #thedeathgap — from @OrderGoodDeath x @RadDeathStudies
We’ll be examining the green burial movement, the immigrant experience of death in the U.S., the epidemic of missing & murdered indigenous women, and more.

“Where there has not been that opportunity to attend a funeral, to have an end-of-life ceremony, the altar for Day of the Dead becomes the sort of ritual that a lot of people are holding onto..”

The American medical system "does not financially support caring for dying people at home the same way it supports caring for them in [health care settings]." via @statnews ow.ly/LaVu50C27U2

Tip #4 - some days are just for curling up and wrapping yourself in a blanket, and that’s okay! You can only take in your new reality in short spurts of activity. #Bekindtoyourself

In things I learned today - apparently it is common for people to go to Build A Bear and request to inter cremated remains into the stuffed animal they are making.

NEW VIDEO
"What in the world happened with the woman who WOKE UP ALIVE at the funeral home?"
So many of you have asked about this situation, and we have (some) answers. All in a new format I hope you like! youtu.be/K5Xb8R0A9hI

You don’t have to keep cremated remains in an urn you ‘hate’ - in fact it doesn’t have to be an urn at all! It can be something personal & meaningful. The guys who designed the Pringle’s can, & the Moka espresso maker had their ashes put in their designs! 😉

1. Time to answer another one of our most FAQ for our #orderfaq series Q: Are graves really dug six feet deep?
A: No. There may many different theories as to where this common belief originated—from the London Plague of 1665, to grave robbing, to animals digging up graves ⚰️🦝

Dr. Mike had me react to Six Feet Under and all the things (A/V plugs, angel lust) you creepers have been asking me about forever! A genuinely fun experience and not just because I'm desperate for pandemic friends.
Collab month continues with this highly requested reaction w/@TheGoodDeath We watch Six Feet Under and boy was it a fun learning opportunity 🙈⛑👉🏼 youtu.be/MddVNafUVMc

These cemetery cameras aren’t intended for security — they offer the virus-weary living the ability to have “on-demand virtual burial visits” with the departed.
