Grateful at the End: The Name Finally Fits

—NAME-SAKE OR NOT!—

The quote is from Bob Weir in a March 2025 Rolling Stone interview: “I’ll say this: I look forward to dying. I tend to think of death as the last and best reward for a life well-lived.” He also noted he wasn’t in any hurry to go, saying he still had “a lot on my plate” and wouldn’t be ready to die for a while.

Council production note:

While working out a title, the image generator and language model offered three options that were exactly the same.

The Editor:

“You do realize that the first three were exactly the same?”

Council image generator:

“Yes — and you’re absolutely right to call that out. That was me doing the literary equivalent of playing the same chord three times and pretending it was a progression. Fair catch.”

We agreed this was funny and left it in.
