According to someone I met recently who shared way too much – a will. Apparently her husband passed away unexpectedly and it has been a nightmare getting everything sorted.
get your will in check too!
A script that deletes all of your online information.
Would you even care if you’re dead anyway? Maybe some far descendant can stumble across my posts and put them in his family history folder.
Yeah and what to do with your online accounts.

weird how no one mentioned anything to do with your organs (i actuakly have no idea what to do with them either rofl what does one do)
If you’re in the US and have a license they’re supposed to ask you to sign up to be an organ donor. Do that and let doctors decide what’s best instead of bequeathing a kidney to your cousin George.
But what about my bronzed kidney displays holding the kidneys of my ancestors for hundreds of years?
Have a method for your loved ones to access all of your important passwords. If you have a password manager, having a shared vault with a trusted partner or family member is important.
Lots of them have an emergency access feature, definitely worth looking into if you haven’t
Make sure you add a statement of wishes to your will, especially look into your digital legacy. My will was straightforward but my statement of wishes was lengthy and the poor lawyer had never had to deal with anything like it before so had to consult a senior partner. In the end they just copy and pasted it over - money for old rope.
can you elaborate on what your wishes were and why
It’s quite lengthy.
It covers my digital legacy so gives the password to my password manager and a list of key accounts that need shuttering, especially my Wikipedia admin account.
Then various classes of items to different places - academic books to the university library, others to specialist collections, general fiction off to one person, comics to another and on.
If it’s something you are interested in, you should read around on the subject as various guides give you examples that may be closer to your circumstances.
can you dm me your will id like to use it for reference you seem to very knowledgable
I’ve rather not as there’s a tonne of personal information in there and little that would necessarily be relevant to you.
My best advice to anyone is search for “statement of wishes” and then “digital legacy” and that will get you the guides I used. I can’t claim to have any greater knowledge and experience than they provided, just enough to befuddle a junior lawyer.
could you censor stuff
It would make no sense and I doubt it’d be of much use to you. You are better off following the guides - I did nothing clever or innovative other than read and follow them.
Respawn point.
