Panel 1 (caption: 1926...):
An elderly man with a bushy mustache and wild gray hair (resembling Albert Einstein) holds up one finger.
Man: I am at all events convinced that he does not play dice.
Panel 2 (caption: TODAY...):
A scientist in a lab coat throws open a door and bursts in triumphantly with both arms raised.
Scientist: BOOYAH! We just got God to play dice with a TARDIGRADE!
Votey:
A speech bubble points toward a round, dimpled object (resembling a die or a moon) floating among clouds.
Voice (off-panel): I need to admit I have a gambling problem.

A two-panel comic. Panel one, captioned '1926...', shows an elderly Einstein-like man with wild gray hair and a mustache raising one finger and saying, 'I am at all events convinced that he does not play dice.' Panel two, captioned 'TODAY...', shows a scientist in a lab coat bursting through a doorway with arms raised, shouting, 'BOOYAH! We just got God to play dice with a TARDIGRADE!' The votey (aftercomic) shows a round dimpled object, like a die, floating among clouds, with a speech bubble saying, 'I need to admit I have a gambling problem.' The joke riffs on Einstein's famous 'God does not play dice' quote about quantum mechanics, imagining modern scientists having literally gotten God hooked on gambling.
