Description

Sure! Here's a transcription of the text from the comic:

Panel 1:
"It's called the Pinocchio illusion."

Panel 2:
"Put your finger on your nose.
Now, we vibrate your bicep. This tells your brain that your fingertip is moving forward."

Panel 3:
"Your brain knows you didn't 'tell' your finger to move forward, so it logically concludes that your nose is growing."

Panel 4:
"WOOOOAAAAA."
"Right?"

Panel 5:
"The nose wasn't the first organ you tried this on, was it?"

Panel 6:
"Everything is research! Everything!"
