I've always said funerals are a waste of money. Drag my body out to the woods, let the critters feed on it, and use the money you would have spent on a funeral to have a nice dinner party.

Hmmm... When men say I'd be cuter if I smiled, maybe I should... and just dig out the most awkward smile I have in inventory.
At 18 I cut my wrists and waited, until I realized the person to find me would be my baby sister. I figured I'd do it later. I guess it isn't later, quite yet.
Every day we all influence people, in good and bad ways, and most of them we don't know we're doing it. Last year someone told me they'd seen me at a store, with full arms, holding the door open for a woman with a walker. He said that touched him, just a small thing. He tries to do that, now.
And I have 2 elderly Yorkies, who have me wrapped around their paws, and an African Gray parrot who rules over everything and everyone. They're my support system.

@AlisonW @ScottSoCal @allenstenhaus @hellomiakoda @Autistrain @asbestos @hosford42 @sal @actuallyautistic @neurodiversity @Tooden @pathfinder @markusl @johnettesnuggs @sentient_water @Adventurer I've got a bunch of weird friends, most of them ND, and I'm the butler of His Furry Highness the Prince. My cat already had the name Prince when I adopted him, and it fits, he's a spoiled aristocat.
You have no idea what the future holds for you. The only way to find out is to be there when it happens.
My wife had a 4X6 pride flag on her bulletin board at a bio testing lab. She's a director there, and it's important to her that the gay people who work under her know they are welcome.
Someone from her team, who is very nice to their gay co-worker's face, filed a very general complaint about it.
Naturally, I assumed the person was upset the pride flag was too small. So I made my wife a 12X8 stained glass flag to put in its place.
Yup:
"WASHINGTON -- FEMA, in coordination with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), will conduct a nationwide test of the Emergency Alert System (EAS) and Wireless Emergency Alerts (WEA) this fall.
The national test will consist of two portions, testing WEA and EAS capabilities. Both tests are scheduled to begin at approximately 2:20 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Oct. 4."
So... me. Work in aerospace, more space, not as much aero. Can fix my own car, choose not to. Can fix the random appliance of your choice. Hardcore introvert in person, which is why I love online. Lifelong science fiction fan. Read constantly. Scalzi is my favorite author, because he mixes exactly the right amount of snark into his writing. Together with a guy 30+ years, married since it was legal. Own a home in CA and don't plan to leave unless I immigrate to another country.
