I’d rather have that than be preserved for centuries. I honestly prefer cremation to burial. Heck, feed me to the birds for all I care, just let me unexist completely.
There’s a sort of solace in that. That one day I’ll completely cease to exist. I don’t know why religious people like the idea of eternal life. I’d very much prefer not to exist after a while.
I got to tour a terramation (human composting) facility a little while back. You come out in a few burlap sacks of mulch. They even threw in some wicked t shirts.
The atoms that you are made of will not cease to exist until our sun explodes and makes them into something else.
You will either get buried and rot into sustenance for worms and bacteria or you will get cooked into carbon and calcium to be spread out and become intermixed with the soil.
So will everyone that currently exists barring nuclear annihilation. I find solace that my atoms will maybe be a tree or a bird or even just grass.
The sun isn’t massive enough to explode. It will just expand and get hotter, making Earth too hot to support life, and then burn out, making Earth too cold to support life. And even a supernova probably won’t destroy atoms. Most of our atoms will probably survive the ‘death’ of the sun.

Finally, the perfect shirt to wear to bullshit meetings.

Gotta wait till the heat death of the universe, then.
I’ll just have to be happy knowing matter breaks down and I won’t be me but the things that were me will be other things, unaware of what they were.
I won’t exist. That’s enough lol.

They accidentally poisoned all the birds. Sorry about that.
No super advanced aliens/robots reincarnating you!
