let's hypothetically say that someone does the final deed and does themselves in.
let's assume that nobody, and I truly mean that nobody really gives a fuck, or at least they have no more fucks left to give. They're fresh out of fucks.
So someone does themselves in. And now, this is not about me (at this exact moment anyway) or anyone in particular... or you know, to be honest maybe it is about someone in particular, but it definitely isn't about me today, and if it is about someone in particular, then I'm not saying so other than it isn't me. I feel stable at the the given time. Ok, we move on.
So a person does the ultimate test of reality on themselves and wants to see what death is all about.
I don't recommend it. It causes a lot of grief and sadness among survivors, not to mention that a seemingly permanent solution doesn't seem like a logical remedy to a seemingly temporary problem.
but besides all that... if someone truly has not a single person in the world that really has a fuck left in the deepest cockles of their being to spare... then of course it's still a tragedy... but other than that... who the fuck cares? It's actually a cause for celebration in some respects.
Now, nobody should take this personally, and definitely don't think I'm contemplating the bitter end, because at this point in my life, I feel emotionally healthy enough to get through my shit. This is all just hypothetical, with maybe some people in mind, but more like a generalization of many people from the past, the present, and maybe even some characterizations of my own self.
The point is, it doesn't matter. All we can do is restrict the means of instantaneous death to those unstable enough to own such tools... pray for and love the rest, and get on with the rest of our lives.
Thank you for reading my liturgy. Amen.
If someone does themselves in...

ok, for example, a guy kills a bunch of innocent bystanders and then himself.
nobody cares about the guy that did all the killing, right?
so, what if the same guy didn't kill 20 innocents but only himself... what's the difference if it isn't anyone you know or love personally?
kind of like if a tree falls in the woods and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?
If someone dies, and nobody cares about that person, is it a tragedy?

I'm a miserable fuck and even I am certain all life holds value, with the exception of evil doers, or evil about to dos.
It's also my experience that certain types of internet banter come with knocks on doors or battering rams n shit
regarding "the guy" it's my firm opinion that it should be unlawful to disseminate the name of persons who commit such acts, as that is kinda what a lot of them want anyway... notieriety even in death is oft desired.

I don't believe a natural death is a tragedy, that is nature.
I am however fortunate, as I am not of this earth and have several hundred more years of experiments to work thru.
I have been collecting samples of female dna, and depositing my own for decades.... my work has just begun.

Id argue that every death is "natural" regardlesss of the circumstance.

well, as related to recent events for example, the unexpected, immediate loss of 26 persons - prolly the most I've cried for people I've never met in my life, in my life.
that was evitable.
U cant prevent crazy. You cant prevent death. Kids can die early.

This was my friend Obi Wan...he's a doctor now. He's from Minnesota and was somewhere in rural Ontario fishing. He, his brother and some fat slob as he describes him. The fat slob drank way way way too much and was dangerously drunk. They were too remote and fucked up to get help, so somehow Obi Wan farted in the guys face causing the guy to puke his brains out, thus saving the dude's life by getting rid of most of the alcohol.
