Does "postmortem bloating" have a figurative meaning?

Hi there, thank you for your attention I was searching for something related in my own language just now, asking GPT some questions about the translation about the postmortem bloating phenomenon. Then it gives me the answer that it actually could be used ironically in the meaning someone got overpraised after his death. Wauw, that sounds very true, but when I try to search to verify it I only got its literal meaning. So I want to confirm with native English speakers, does postmortem bloating have a figurative meaning?

Why is there not many "had" in this? Isn't he referring to something that happened in the past?

Is it "Lunar New Year" or "Lunisolar New Year"?

As the title says, I once saw a comment confirming that Lunisolar is the right term since we are using Lunisolar calendar.

My boyfriend who is born in the US can't say this poem but I can!

He is white and born in the US, and he mispronounced so many words, such as plaque (verb), plaque (noun), tear (noun), tear (verb), ague, chalet, Terpsichore, vicar, mica, similes and so on. Now he is mad I made he say the poem! https://preview.redd.it/jalfjdwjxmae1.png?width=1058&format=png&auto=webp&s=56591870e99e1b50e3d58e4d119c733862521265
