Image transcription: a soyjak with a head warped into an almost spoon-like shape. He has text on his T-shirt that reads: “I love Taoism But I would NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER EVER drink mercury to unlock the alchemical secrets to immortality”.

“Taoism or Daoism (/ˈtaʊɪzəm/ ⓘ or /ˈdaʊɪzəm/ ⓘ) is a diverse tradition indigenous to China, variously characterized as both a philosophy and a religion.
