Death

[close] This is a group for all lovers of Fantasy novels, Fantasy sub-genres and Manga. The series read for 2023 will be the Legend of the First Empire by Michael J Sullivan.

[close] This group is for anyone who is Death Positive, death doulas, end-of-life midwives, hospice workers/volunteers, and anyone who has ever or will ever experience a death (yes, that means YOU!). We encourage open, honest discussion about the one thing that we are all guaranteed in this life, Death. My hope is that we can dull the fears, and return the sacredness of death to our universal consciousness, to allow everyone to live their unique life to its fullest until their last exhale. "We are going to die, and that makes us the lucky ones Most people are never going to die because they are never going to be born The potential people who could have been here in my place But who will in fact never see the light of day outnumber the sand grains of Sahara Certainly those unborn ghosts include greater poets than Keats, scientists greater than Newton We know this because the set of possible people allowed by our DNA So massively exceeds the set of actual people In the teeth of those stupefying odds it is you and I, in our ordinariness, that are here We privileged few, who won the lottery of birth against all odds How dare we whine at our inevitable return to that prior state From which the vast majority have never stirred?" -Richard Dawkins

[close] Our book club meets with a new book on death, dying, and bereavement on the first day of each month. Requests can be taken for books that you would like to read and discuss. This is a digital format so each attendee can participate on their own schedule. The book club is moderated by our Aftercare Counselor who is available for questions and feedback throughout the monthly sessions.

[close] This is it. The time for survival has come, here we can speak about all things zombie. Books, movies, tales, ideas, history, survival tips...everyone has a story they see themselves in, were they to be placed in a zombie apocalypse scenario. Whether you'd die the first day or become a force to be reckoned with, share your thoughts here. All are welcome
