What would you want done with your remains upon death? (piefed.social)

I would want cremation. Cremation and a simple marker. I wouldn't be buried at all at my marker, because I would actually want my ashes spread in two separate places. One is somewhere in my hometown and the other spot, probably around the recreational area of my middle school, where I had commonly found peace at.

My marker would have a Red Sox emblem, signifying fan for life to that team. The other symbol would probably be a resemblance of rebirth/reincarnation as a reflection of my beliefs, so presumably a phoenix would go there. Not entirely sure what exactly I'd want written on the marker. Debating on a personal quote or just say "Logged off for the last time" which references from all of the time I've spent being online.

Cremation and mixed up with my furry companions that have passed on before me. After that I wouldn’t mind being spread out in the far reaches of the wilderness. Be up to the wife really.

But for all its worth Do Not put me on a cemetery.

Sky burial. I don't think that's allowed here tho.

I don't care I won't be there. The living should decide whatever they want, it's not my business.

Stick a sapling in my guts and put me in a hole. That's about it tbh.

Ideally? Loaded in to a rocket and sent in the same general direction as the voyager 1
