Black folk. We have elders. They're aging and dying, and they want deathworkers. Black deathworkers, to be specific. But they don't identify or articulate the need until too late, and there are too few of us to go around.

I’m going to name a harsh truth
Everything the GOP and this regime is doing is reducing our life expectancy and increasing death rates.
We have to face this.
We have to be prepared to fight and resist this
But we also have to be prepared to mourn.

As I pack, I'm entertaining myself with thoughts about how D'Artagnan views death as both an equalizer and as a means of building community with the bereaved and other deathworkers.

there's a sort of flip of respectability... where deathworkers are usually outcasts or otherwise untouchable, they're closer here to nobility. with such an embrace of the reality of death and acceptance of it, there'd be an increase in ways of receiving it...

The scavengers, the decomposers, the deathworkers tend to the Dying World...

Sidebar: I also run a group in Oakland for practicing deathworkers so we can get together, decompress, and talk deep with each other about things you don't dare talk about in public. Let me know if that's you.

I believe him when he defends other deathworkers who wear and celebrate Nazi iconography.
I believe him when he says that the best job he ever had was when he was paid to go overseas and kill brown people. Once. Twice. Three times. Four times.

A thought, kinda long. Walk with me.
When talking with aspiring deathworkers (that's what i do), I ask them what they imagine the work will be.
"Do you see yourself sitting bedside in a dark room, a candle in the corner, holding someone's hand as they die?"
"Yeah!"
"That's not how this works."

that said, she does discuss *everything* related to death and deathworkers, which means also covering infant and child loss, and i cried at least twice during it. but it was always with care and a lot of consideration and never felt ghoulish
