Just the title. Heavens? Hells? Purgatory? Nothing? Become one with the universe? Reincarnation?
Bonus question: If you could design the system of your choice, what would you want?
We go to sleep and never wake up.
No more shifts at work, no more rent to pay. Pure bliss.
If I didnt have big plans for my death I’d probably have intentionally ODed on heroin already.
If quantum immortality is real, things might get really weird the closer to the end you get. The idea is if there is an infinite multiverse and our consciousness experiences one of them, then it could pick the “best” one, by some definition of “best”. In which case unlikely things that can keep your life going (and be worth keeping going) are more and more likely to happen as you exhaust the more likely possibilities that would end your life. Could be that each of us ends up immortal in our own universe, not really alone because other people are there but alone in that their consciousnesses aren’t likely present (unless your best unlikely future is also theirs).
This should be a movie. Their best future is yours because you are both soulmates.
Either nothingness or I awake somewhere else.
Where else?
Somewhere. The general idea is that you’re not aware of any time you don’t exist, so if there is a reason why that would happen to me it would be instant to me. Or it’s actually nothing. No in between.
Your brain stops and your body rots.
This seems like the extremely obvious answer. Anything else is unlikely.
I relinquish control of my atoms, at least to whatever extent I controlled some of them prior to death. And I no longer perceive or think or remember.
If I could reincarnate into anything other than a human on earth, I’m not sure I’d want to retain memories of a past life. I’d hate to poison a new and different life with the baggage of a human lifetime, for better or worse.
Mind uploading or cryonic preservation for possible future revival and treatment is a nice thought, but I would hate for evil billionaires to be able to cheat death, that seems like too big a tradeoff.
Immortality seems like a curse to me.
I would love to be immortal, depending on the rules and the specifics.
but I don’t want nazis or fascists or billionaires to be.
I really hope that this is just it. Any form of afterlife I find just infuriating.
I think oblivion sounds nice and peaceful.
Worms eat me. Worms poop me out. Worm poop provides nutrient to a few stray wandering plant and tree seeds. They grow. I’m a part of them.
Your atoms and energy stop arranging themselves in a way that forms you and become something else for a time.
I know the ones who love us will miss us.
The same thing that happened before I was born
You either go to Purgatory and then Heaven, straight to Heaven or hell
Sincere belief? What is heaven for you? What determines the destination.
Edit: If you don’t want to explain it all, but you follow a specific doctrine you could just name it and I’ll look it up.
Catholicism
Same thing that was happening before I was conceived.
Your parents fucking is a weird way to envision the afterlife.
Just you having to watch a HHHHHD full immersion gif of the moments of your father’s final strokes as he pumps his cock into your mom.
The only thing more embarrassing than watching my birth video was watching the conception video
Good think it’s blocked behind an OF paywall
Not at our house. Come on over!
That video paid for your diapers.

My consciousness merges with the universal consciousness, which absorbs my memories to learn what it was like to be this particular organism in these particular circumstances. “I” will cease to be, and will become a personal memory of God, for lack of a better word.
Perhaps that process will take some subjective time, and go through interesting phases. Perhaps part of that process is recirculating through multiple vessels before total dissolution.
Do you remember what its like to be asleep? Well, being dead is just the same, but for longer, and probably with fewer dreams.
Lucid dreaming and remembering dreams?
