Image description: Two framed drawings of light blue ribbons looped around realistically detailed depictions of figures. In one drawing the figure is a garden gnome who uses a curved sword to threaten a weasel that has emerged from his pants fly. The other drawing is a close-up of the crotches of two naked men who stand facing one another with their erect penises touching while they masturbate.
