I’m not going to psychologize a person going through grief due to a dying spouse.

Grief, especially if it’s an unexpected death, is so weird. It’s like a low-grade psychosis where their response is coming from such a fucked up place that it doesn’t match reality. They’ll torture brain-dead relatives to try to bring them back, show up to emergency with obviously dead children as if they aren’t, either become hysterically depressive or have some gallows humour kind of response like this. Too much seeing the human instead of the patient.

I choose to see this as someone posting something to the effect of “My wife died today, I am sad” online to people they’re looking to get some kind of help or support from.

I did similar right here on hexbear when my dad died… Not with a picture but I just needed to vent. This person is venting. And because their outlet for most things is online so too is their outlet for this.
