I believe it's depicting a non-sexual massage

I also believe that the artist was being a cheeky little shit about it to amuse themself on the job lol

Like some of the guys that made those little goblins, that hang on churches, cathedrals and such? They loved to include their own goblins in nefarious poses. They are usually at a height, where you don't recognize it looking as a peasant from the ground.

I just opened this at work and my boss doesn’t seem upset but she has recommended me a couple of Japanese comics. Verdict:sfw

[–] wahming@monyet.cc 3 points 7 months ago (2 children)

Depending on the comics she may be trying to hint at something

Almost as ancient as your mum.
