Best circle I can do by hand on my phone... while pooping. You're welcome.

I am also pooping and found this helpful. Thank you for your service!

I am also pooping and found this thread amusing! We are all connected in this moment, at one with nature and each other

Oh sure... THAT one is a circle, but the rest are clearly spirals!

My initial reaction was "this is a circle on top of a spiral, what does this prove?"

It blows my mind that even when you're looking for it, you STILL need to use logic to disprove the illusion.

That red circle is in blue the entire time. It never touches either black & white circle that it is between.

Why'd you draw a circle around a spiral?

Well I hate that, lol

I know they're concenteric circles, and once I'm able to convinve my brain it sees it that way it switches what it identifies as the void space and goes back to being a spiral.

This is the curse of the Spiral Menace.

"They're circles, damn it! Perceive them properly!"

If I close one eye they look like circles

and then people think we can absolutely trust our perception

[โ€“] Obi@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago

This one is stroooong.

Even the thumbnail still looks like a spiral.
