    In addition to the physical monument, a virtual Memory Garden on covidmemorialmonument.org allows donors to “plant a dandelion” — a yellow flower for a front-line worker and a white fluffy head for loved ones who’ve died. Donors can upload an image and text in honor of recipients. Submissions start at $20.

    Get fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuucked. You should be making a list of fucking names and putting them on plaques at the very least if you’re gonna do a fucking statue of the virus instead of the people. Charging people for a fucking “virtual” memory garden give me a fucking break.

      Orrrrrrrr, we take this as a challenge! A challenge to get as many stupid names into the garden as we can.

      Then, when they show it off, it’s names like Erma Dummass.

        They will be fine with it for as long as they can - since it is 20 bucks each time.

        Then, one day they be like “oh we had to get rid of the stupid names insensitive people kept putting in”, clean those out, and keep the money anyway.

        TL;DR: not that good of a way to stick it to them as it may sound at first.
