This is a psychological phenomenon known as “Apophenia” — where we see patterns in random information.

Ever seen shapes in clouds or a face on a power socket? That’s your brain doing its thing!

Fun Fact: The same brain function helps us enjoy art, music, and even memes!

A Week of High Stakes and Tense Talks Despite market hopes for progress, attempts to broker peace between Ukraine and Russia remain in a deadlock. President Donald Trump, currently leading U.S. diplomatic efforts, hinted at organizing a summit between Russian President Vladimir Putin and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy.
