I hope those new items don't set off trypophobiacs...

And I hope those people will speak for themselves if it did.
With every item release somebody is concerned about a "minor" group, that hardly ever did complain themselves in the first place.
There are tons of phobias, if we ever took all of them into account, we could just close the internet. If I was affected by such a problem, I'd be annoyed about that constant patronizing.
Sorry, had to be said.
If you feel like you wanna be thoughtful and sensible start with yourself and stop "correcting" others.

Just saying as someone who has trypo, no, the item didn't set off my phobia like something major like honeycomb or the infamous lotus boob, but I still shuddered and went "ew" and promptly scrolled past because ew.
Also, Dendro wasn't even being patronising or "OMG FIX THIS BECAUSE WHAT ABOUT X GROUP" they simply voiced concern. As someone who has trypo- a fear that sometimes is mocked, ignored or is the target of people actively trying to set off in worst case scenarios- it's appreciated that anyone even gave a kriff.
That being said, yay more book items and YAY BUGS.
