What I want to know is who or what is stretching out all these corpses to make them so long?
This will likely be me one day.
I don’t care I’ll be dead.
Was thinking about this.
I’m single, and mid 30’s.
I think it’d depend on how long it took my work to call my sister.
I reckon it could be up to a week.
I see friends regularly, but it’s not exactly unheard of for me to be alone for a week and not talk to anyone.
I guess it’s just the beginning, we are going into a multi-tier society and a tier will be for people whose social life is only virtual
Just get some pets, they’ll eat you after a few days.
There really ought to be well-being checks and a lot of other initiatives to try to foster a sense of community. It can’t be a good thing that so many people are left to die alone.
Unfortunately, you just know to a certain that any kind of programme would meet with pushback from the huge number of grumpy, horrible people that we have.
And *that* is the issue. As a nation we just have a lot of these negative, grumpy killjoys who murder any hint of optimism in our society.
It’s really a big national cultural problem and it is likely at the root of a lot of what is wrong and malfunctional about the UK.
>Lonliness puts people at a 50% increased risk of an early death compared to those with good social connection.
Why is that? I live a full life, I do not need the company of others. I am never happier than when I am on my own. Being around people is incredibly draining, I am autistic though.
This happened to a guy on my street, the reason people started suspecting something was from the number of blue bottles in the window. Think he was there about 2 months before anyone noticed
There is a great documentary about a woman who died and went undiscovered in her flat for two years, Dreams of a life it’s called and think it’s on channel 4.
Japan is ahead on this trend. They tried to get older people to move into independent but supported clustered living, but many just want to stay in their home, even if it means a quiet expiry.
