in reply to how to do anything • • •A cartoon illustration depicts two brown leather boots on a gray tiled floor, inside of a gray room. The boots are side-by-side, with laces fully tightened, and have thick, treaded soles. To the right of the boots is a yellow circular object, and above it is a droplet shape with arrows circling around it, suggesting application.
