Showing up… technically counts.

The This Counts as Participation T-Shirt features a laid-back capybara perched in an umpire chair, casually holding a tennis racquet like they’re involved—but only to a certain extent. It’s dry, understated, and quietly hilarious in that very specific “I’m here, isn’t that enough?” kind of way.

Because sometimes participation is more of a mindset than an action.
