The Unmitigated Horror of Drowning in Molasses

YouTube

Hi Fediverse!! 👋😊

My name is Kian (Kee-ahn).

I'm #Persian, an #Angelino (#LosAngeles), and sometimes #sassy. I'm here to discuss #technology, #society, and #queerness; complain about #politics, #AI (or whatever the current exploitative fad is), and my #PetPeeves; share #knowledge, #truth, and my greatest #fears; and also #procrastinate.

I'm always listening, learning, and growing. I try to speak from my experiences (including my privilege), and make many mistakes along the way. I invite you to challenge my thoughts, share your perspectives, agree or disagree, and otherwise interact with me; and maybe together we can grow as individuals and strengthen this community.

"One aspect of aquamation that has grown on many, Sieber said, is the environmentally friendly nature of the process. It results in no emissions of greenhouse gases or mercury, and a 10th of the carbon footprint compared to traditional flame cremation."
Indiana peoples, it's your time! Lets make it happen!

Today i learned that more than 10 states have passed bills to pass the Natural Organic reduction legislation, which is a positive for human composting/ green / natural burials. NJ is the next state that people are looking into for this bill, so if youre in that area you should sign up with The Order of The Good Death's newsletter and see how you can help out! https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdqiZUHbPam8YiWRZadNDfdpfd5BguEkQu5rD0A0quKhPAUxw/viewform?_hsmi=312344473
