You are intense and insane

Edit: since people didn't get the reference, op used the lyric from the song the Schuyler sisters from Hamilton which this is a reference to.

Aaah didn't know it was a complete trio.

Yeah I see it

I think thats the duo

I've lost three grandparents, and here, our approach to death is different from the West. We don't prepare the bodies extensively, just keep them cool. For the funeral, they're wrapped in a white cloth, laid on a bed at home where 'guests' pay their respects. Then we carry them to the grave, where we place them directly into the earth, without a casket. Just the white cloth. I've been 6 feet deep in my grandparents grave putting down their bodies, was the last person to see their eyes.

Seeing the dead isn’t disrespectful; it acknowledges mortality without layers of abstraction. Cultures vary widely in their views on death, and that’s okay. But I find value in an approach that doesn’t hide death behind closed doors, whether in slaughterhouses, funeral homes, or distant graveyards.

There's nothing to hide. Being able to see the dead doesn't make it less respectful. Don't see death with a strict sense of morality. Every culture has very different views on death. And even the same cultures over time vary in beliefs.

I have far too many opinions on this lol and I'll spare you any more of my rambling.

Couldn't put my full colon on the internet like that

I think the kid is called the rizzler? The others are some random family and he's just there for some reason.

I honestly do not know.

Why do we hide from death so much?

First I've noticed this instance.

People still don't record accurate birthdays here. A registrar goes to a village once every 3-4 months and all the kids born within the previous few months get the same birthday (if registered at all).

And this is a new thing. People older than that from villages have no clue how old they are. Just guess stuff.

But that could imply anything upto 49. Better do ?0
