Makes sense! I'm also a "yeah they can poke and prod my body and harvest my organs, not like I have any use for them after I'm dead" kinda donor.

At least it's consistently materialist, eh? (as opposed to spiritual dualism, etc.)

This is probably not a controversial stance here on HN, but IMO humans are essentially wet, mostly hairless sacks of proteins and dreams. It's kinda cool that despite that, we are motile and can pass for sentient (some days of the week).
