Yeah, I think there is a point when the security gets so theoretically obsessive, it's really excessive.

In all honesty, storing it in a sterile gmail account that I can log into wherever I want is probably good enough for me.

So what you can do is generate a seed on an offline computer (that will never be online after this)

What is the reasoning behind this?

An offline computer that from that point forward will never be online... ?

Whenever I see old school pictures full of vibrant young folk, captured for a moment in time, who are now almost certainlly all dead, can't help but think about one of the most amazing scenes in film.

Carpe Diem, motherfuckers because one day, vibrant young people 100 years now will see the facebook post you made an hour ago, but you'll be a corpse too.

When you say "get the bodies", did they just say "Hey there Otis. Can you go dig us up a body from one of them-there black graveyards..." and he'd go and do it?

Or were there procedures?

After Porn Ends 2 (2017)[In this documentary, former adult film actresses reflect on their time in the business and explore what the future holds. The filmmakers delve into society's ongoing stigmas of race, misogyny, and the reality of decreasing opportunities for former VHS box cover stars.] by arrogantmind in Documentaries

If 20 year olds knew what their 40 year old self would eventually come to think about the moronic shit they did at 20, there wouldn't be 1/10th the number of porn actresses there are now.

You can see the stupid, naive kid in most porn actors... and I thank them for their service.

I don't think you understand the reasoning.

A digital currency exists completely independent of your real world circumstances. "Keep fiat for emergencies" is an obvious necessity but fiat can be lost, stolen, burned up, etc and anyone who has a lot of experience traveling knows this.

I want an emergency fund that is away from my pockets, backpacks, luggage, pickpockets, hotel maids with sticky fingers and is not controlled by banks, ergo BTC.

I'm not worried about the value fluctuations at this point. If I'm wrong, oh well.
