This is at least something relatively harmless in the Idaho Legislature so let them waste all of their time on this. Crucial issue! No notes Ledge…

In the clip it says it’s David Spade’s new show, not Dana Carvey. So a little more understandable, famewise.

Accidental Cannibalism...do you non-musician types have ANY idea how long it's gonna take to rehearse all the bands I've had to form from this place?

The CSI episode about a "body farm" really creeped me out, although the volunteers for lying on the ground after death are no doubt wonderful people.

I'm going to be cremated, like my sweet dog was.

If it's the Body Farm that Dr. Bill Bass runs/ran, it's a useful ongoing investigation into postmortem decomposition. I don't think I could do it myself, but I appreciate the spirit of investigation. I plan to donate my skeleton to the UNM anthropology museum (they deal with getting the skeleton cleaned). If I'm hanging around in the afterlife, UNM is as interesting a place as any.

Heather doesn't seem to be the sharpest knife in the drawer. She also doesn't seem to be able to understand that one can't just dig auntie Freda's body into ones veggie garden because a) it's illegal and b) the neighbourhood racoons would dig her up and spread bits all over the place. Ashes on the other hand - equally illegal but what the neighbours don't know won't hurt them ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

She is suffering from a level of ignorance that only comprehends “compost” to be “what I buy in large bags at the local Big Box store.” That’s what compost *is*, and The Left wants to normalize shredding humans and bagging them up for sale to innocent Christian White People Who Shop at Home Depot, just like her. Obviously.

The fact that this is basically hard, factual truth is...I dunno...sad?

Well, it's a crap video, but it's the only one I can find of the scene.

Oooooh, cannibalism-adjacent book that I don't think has been mentioned:

The Wanting Seed by Anthony Burgess

Several forms of cannibalism are found therein, and it's a solid dystopian fiction. Pretty disturbing, though.

So, when you say, "$800 for an arm and a leg," do you really mean both? Like both the arm and the leg? We could talk if $800 was for both. Call me.

"A Modest Proposal" by Jonathan Swift makes a lot more sense and sounds tastier. And it would give the anti-abortionists a purpose for the unwanted babies, which they want to neglect after birth anyway.

"A Modest Proposal" was also bitter political satire.

Which is what we need right now, given how the Repubs are behaving. I suspect one or two Repubs might really think that "A Modest Proposal" is a sound idea.

Maybe she was trying to outlaw fellatio and the AI she used to write the bill misunderstood?

You make an interesting point. Would laws prohibiting cannibalism ban swallowing?

"I didn't swallow!" is gonna be the next "I didn't inhale" defense.
