Overheard
I've heard some strange things at Wesleyan, but this one is a bit of a gem:
"Next time, bury the placenta! Then plant a tree! It's like, the best compost ever."

That actually happens. Placental rituals occur in plenty of cultures.

Heed the warning: "Dogs may dig up the placenta to eat it."
you've... never heard of that??
i know people who have eaten them.
My little brother's placenta is buried under a tree somewhere in our backyard. No joke.
My parents did this when I was born. I've seen the tree.
