Make sure to livestream it, shouting "try this, kids at home!"
I’ll just use my gun instead of jumping
On the off-chance you're not joking don't actually do that. I thought we were doing some edgy humour it's not actually a good suggestion.
No joking here. I don’t think the world wants to see my brains splatter though so I wasn’t planning on live streaming. Don’t worry though, it’s not a suicidal thing, more like a “when I’m terminally ill and going to go on my terms” thing and if consciousness is in the equation after death, I’d like to make sure that doesn’t happen so no brain would remedy that.
