    Whenever I’m in a old cemetery, I look for the graves that have five children dying within six weeks of each other. They’re usually not too hard to find if there are 200 year old headstones.

      It always feels like “can you even imagine the psychological tortureporn and devastation the mourners endured in this spot and for the rest of their lives?”

      Otoh. I have higher expectations for a just universe than this chaotic place provides. Maybe they were sad and then moved on. Especially re children dying 200 years ago.

        I’m curious how much training your autocorrect needed to infer “tortureporn” from the word “torture” alone…
