   I do believe in the need for collective grieving, but I don’t believe in the need for a showy recitation of my life.

   I used to have very specific desires for my funeral, but I realized that I really didn’t care all that much.

    Get an ad blocker. I’ve got one on my home computer and one on my work computer. Though lately I’ve noticed that both of them are becoming less effective. The ads don’t play, but they do show up and need to be skipped.

    There’s one on my phone too, but it’s kind of complicated to use, so I often skip it.
