"howd you get plantar fasciitis" because i stand with my feet arched in opposing directions to create the simple illusion of a ground plane like a tex avery character
tex avery drawing of a squirrel in 3/4 view, the front foot is arched down and the back foot is arched up to create the illusion of a ground plane. tex avery drawing of a quadruped dog in 3/4 view, the front and back leg closest to us are arched down and the front and back leg farthest from us are arched up creating the illusion of a ground plane. tex avery drawing of a biped wolf in a striped prisoner outfit in 3/4 view, the front foot closest to the viewer is curved up and the back foot farthest from the viewer is curved down, creating the illusion of a ground plane.

whoa nice buddy #makeaterriblecomicday2025
A three panel comic. First panel: two people are having penetrative sex in the shower, person bottoming is bent over forward and the person topping is railing them from behind. Second panel: Zoomed closer in, a spider is slowly lowering from the window pane in the shower, the person bent over has a nervous look on their face. Third panel: Close in on the spider, the spider is smiling, all eight eyes watching the people doing it. It's giving a big cartoonish thumbs up.
