Seems like if you could leave your body to a medical school and have the thing laying on a table with a bunch of strangers making jokes about it, you should be able to have your disembodied head flayed, and leave your bleached skull to your family. Frankly, that should be a common practice. That's better than getting dressed up, driving somewhere to see an embalmed corpse in their Sunday clothing in a room full of flowers - THAT'S fng weird if you ask me.

I can't bring myself to go to funerals anymore. It's so utterly deranged I can't get my head around it. And then to be trapped in there in rows of seats facing the dead body while some priest says the repetitive prayer of the roseary is over the edge. It's GD Medieval ...so far into weirdness that I'm shocked more people aren't as disgusted as I am with ourselves for making that happen.

I'm starting to get pissed off about this. If I had more money, I'd get a lawyer to craft some type of will or trust that maybe set up a private 'research' llc that I could donate my corpse to, have my skull flayed and bleached and the rest discard in a sanitary fashion. After the 'research' was concluded, the skull could be  bequeathed to my heirs, or they could simply be 'members' of the llc and have possession of my artfully reduced earthly remains.

This is the total number of times I have visited family members graves: 0

Now if I had a bleached skull on the mantle, I'd be thinking about the dearly departed often. I'd probably talk to the skull. This should be a thing. I wonder who my state congress person is.
