I’ve been browsing antique jewelry a lot lately and wonder about this. With jewelry specifically I think about hair, coral, pearls.

Then that extends out to animal skins, bones, human relics, etc.

What makes one thing gross but the other okay?

    “You mean you build a desk out of my brothers’ flesh. Then you pack that desk into a container made of more of my brothers’ flesh. Then you sit at that desk and use an instrument made of my brothers’ flesh to write on a sheet of my brothers’ flesh. Is there anything you don’t use our flesh for?”
