Found so often in nature, object of apprehension and meditation throughout the ages, this pattern is a symbolic code. Some Call It Trypophobia deciphers it and reckons with the message.

The Red Pill by Frank Freeman (2 Reviews)    Price verified 11 hours ago

He seeks to make a critical analysis, on the basis of scientific evidence, ...

We're highly agitated by harmless situations, hate looking at social media but can't stop ourselves from peeking, believe in utterly bizarre conspiracy theories, always underestimate the time and cost of doing things, can't resist a 'bargain', attribute our successes to skill and ...
