    But she was already dead when the picture was taken.

      I imagine it's also hard to hold a smile while you're holding a corpse. That sounds like a "one or the other" type of situation tbh.

        From what I've been seeing in this sub lately, I'm not even sure I know what the fuck a shitpost is. Am I wrong or are they wrong?

          If you have to think about what a shitpost is, you are definitely wrong about what a shitpost is.

            You’ll notice these people are usually less fuzzy in the death pics because the shutter speed was pretty long and they aren’t moving.

              At this point, all three of them are dead. 🙂

              Your comment reminded me of my habit of watching old movies and always thinking about how EVERYONE in the movie is dead

                I didn’t even know she was sick.

                She looks pretty good for someone who's dead. Wonder what her cause of death was

                  Post Mortem photography during the Victorian Era - In a time where premature death was common, people would take pictures following the death of family members to commemorate them and ease the grieving process.

                  This is mostly a myth propagated by the idea of "posing stands" which were actually meant to keep living people still for portraits that took a long exposure time. Victorians loved some goth shit like hair jewelry tho.

                    yeah I'm gonna need some sources for that claim. I've seen plenty of evidence that death photography was a real thing including speaking to actual family members that own said photographs with stories handed down about the incident.

                    not just that but you can clearly see the person in the middle crystal clear. this means their eyes didn't move. they never blinked, and their body never moved.

                      Here's a great Atlas Obscura article about it.

                      edit: lol y'all can google it but you're being taken in by a 40-year-old myth, downvote away
