I finally read a whole book this year XD And no, it's not the one I began reading in December. I'm still waiting for my lazy ass to get motivated to continue that one XD I'm kind of upset with myself for not reading but also I'm kind of proud that I actually finished reading something and still in the first half of the year :mclol:

Słowodzicielka XD Hard to translate, it's a made up word xD I suppose it's a play on words 'word' and 'mother/female parent'. It's by a Polish author, I don't think it's been translated yet (if ever, lol). The story is about three side-characters on a search of their plot and the protagonist. Then they meet the author, find out they're made up, there's crossing of worlds and all sorts of craziness. It was hilarious, I was horse laughing all the time XD Can't wait for next volumes, I'm already addicted :mcargh:

Ah, I see 8u

Reminds me of the theory that we're all living in a simulation.
My sister heard that and freaked out and asked how I'd feel to learn I'm part of a simulation.
I told her I'd feel nothing because I'm not real 8u

But in our reality we do have feelings, so even if we're a simulation, it is designed to immitate emotions and feelings. So if you found out you're part of the simulation, you'd still feel something about it, no?

I wouldn't really exist so no 8u
I figured once I found out, I'd cease to exist so I'd feel nothing.
It's the same with what I want to happen to my body when I die - I don't care because I'll be dead.

That's what I always think about death too Moi. J asked me if I would go to my parents funerals after they die. I said no. The funeral is for the people who survived, not the people who are dead, and I don't need the closure. I've already had enough closure with cutting them out of my life.

I was forced to go to my grandad's funeral and I really didn't want to. I barely even knew him. We'd met about four times in the last 15 years before he died. I just sat there feeling really awkward while a bunch of other people cried. And it was so weird listening to my cousins talk about him and read poems in his memory because they WERE close with him, and even though I've been close with them in the past, I didn't have that connection at all. All in all, I would rather not have gone.

I would like it if people went to my funeral, but only so that my husband or kids or whoever can have that support and see that I was liked. And I would like to be buried for the sole reason that I want archaeologists to dig me up in about 200 years and study me 8D

I don't believe finding out would make you disappear, it would more likely give you an existential crisis because your whole existence is a lie but you're still here, so it's hard to comprehend at all.

I once attended a funeral of a distant family member and during the burial I asked my sister: "so who was that person again?" and she had no clue either xD Completely pointless.
My grandma's sister had a man who died unexpectedly last year or maybe two years ago (or idk when, time doesn't mix with me, lol) and even though I've seen him more often than let's say my godfather, I still didn't go,because I didn't actually know him. Sure, he was dear to my aunt, but I barely know her too. I mean, I know she's a chatterbox XD And that she has Hashimoto's and her stomach has no boundaries and that she's quite argumentative for a Libra but hey, I don't know her birth chart so idk. Maybe she has some overpowering placements.
Anyway, I still don't care. It's sad he passed away, but I have nothing else to say.
Idk where I was going with that story :mcheh:

I never go to funerals, but it's because I don't like leaving my house. Funerals are sad and there's too many people there. I would go for my parents' and close friends' funerals, though. I feel like I have to go to those.

My mom and aunt always want to go to the cemetery where my grandparents are buried.
While I get why they do it, I don't...really care about going?
Like I know my grandparents' bodies are there and you should keep the graves nice, but my grandparents aren't there. Just their bodies are.

I don't think many people will be at my funeral. Most of my family is dead or distant. I also have no friends in real life - just cats and my dog.
I'm sure my friends online will be sad if they don't forget about me completely.

I didn't even have a choice in what I want to happen to my body.
My mom and aunt just told me "We bought you a burial plot!"
They didn't ask me what I wanted - they just bought me a burial plot and said "You're getting buried when you die!"

I like graveyards because of all the lights looking nicely at night. And they're usually quiet. Other thsn that, yeah, it's just bodies. It's more important to cherish the memory of the person and not to cherish the place of their burial. Once a year is enough for me.


Loool, if I were you, I'd ask them if they know something I don't about my health because I feel fine and I ain't going nowhere XD
