That's straight up oversimplification, though I agree with the rest of this post. You're letting the extreme minority of the haters (like those cowardly fucknuts who would send death threats) trick you into thinking that was everyone.
 
Most people who disliked TLOU2 disliked how they handled Joel and Ellie this game. It wouldn't have mattered what sex or color the protagonist was.

Oh shit I did kinda forget what day it is. Happy Thanksgiving Ya'll.
 
And thanks for the well wishes everyone.

No. Don't know anything about what she wants to be done after she passes. Somehow that's never come up in all this.
 
I can't talk to her right now; she's in and out of a medically induced coma and her throat was affected by the last treatment (main reason she went to the hospital).

I think I became spice-intolerant all of a sudden. Is this an acid reflux thing? If I have something with even a little bit of spice in it, it feels way worse than before. I made a Mexican-style beans and rice dish I've made before, but with a milder salsa than last time. I know I didn't put too much Cayenne in it, but every bite brings me closer to the devil.

I knew my mom wanted to be cremated from a convo from decades ago but that was it. She shut me out of anything involving...well anything really. CoVid being what it is, the situation is like what Reticently said, cremation is the cheapest, viewings are unfortunately not feasible at this time due to CoVid, so its going to factor into the overall costs.
 
Unless she was already paying for the plot and other services, its going to be dependent on what you guys can afford.

Cremate. It's the cheapest option and best for the environment to boot. 
 
I don't see ground burials lasting another 100 years personally. It's a huge waste of space that could be used for more useful things and burying that many people in a singular location is bad for the ground for many multiple reasons. We are also just flat out running out if space for large swaths of dead people to just chill. Cremate. 
 
I'm really sorry to hear what your mother is going through Axeman. That's really rough. 2020 has been some bulkshit. I hope she pulls through but you also have my condolences I wish you the best in these hard times man.

Does anyone know how to pay for a funeral when the one who died has no life insurance and you don't want to go the GoFundMe route?
 
My mom has cancer, and the last treatment had side effects that ultimately placed her into the hospital. She's in a very bad state. Though she could recover, I'm realizing that she most likely has no life insurance. Also, of my immediate family, I'm probably the only one with sufficient funds to fund a funeral. It would wreck my savings though. Other members would help, but it'd be a drop in the bucket.
 
Note that this is all speculation. She could recover to a point where I can have these conversations with her and get things hashed out. She could have insurance I didn't know about. But right now, I'm flying blind and wondering what I'll do if she dies and there was no life insurance.

For real. In terms of "nastiest things I've ever tasted", this is 2 and Chitlins (chitterlings) is 1.
 
Also, WTF with chitlins? In order to cook them, you have to clean them a bunch of times. And they still taste that damn awful. If it's that damn nasty after multiple cleanings it doesn't really want to be food.

Random, but: my shoulder is feeling much better. I have no pain in it and damn-near full mobility back in my arm. Don't know if I need the meds at this point, but I'm going to keep taking them until they're gone.
 
But whoever makes the pill for Prednisone needs to be arrested. That pill tastes like crimes against humanity. It works, but goddamn.

I missed this one. Happy belated birthday.

When you are packing for Thanksgiving grab a pair of 36"W pants by mistake, wonder if you can wear them after dropping 29lbs,  and them fitting after being 40"W lard ass for most of the year.
 

 
Shit i'm down to 231. I may hit 225 before my birthday after all. 
 
Edit: I was 259lbs earlier this year.
