A seven-panel SMBC comic against a blue background. A woman with reddish-brown hair, shown in profile, talks upward to an unseen voice from heaven that speaks in a deep-purple speech bubble. She asks, "Dear Lord, what is heaven like?" The voice replies, "Oh, it's lovely! So many people." She adds, "I mean, we've got a hundred thousand years of humanity! Entire genres of bigotry you've never even imagined!" The voice explains, "Of course, you have to judge their views by the views of their time. So, by your standards, everyone in heaven is quite racist." The woman says, "Aha," then, "Guess it's pretty sexist up there too, eh?" The voice answers, "No, no, we don't allow girls up here." Votey: a loosely sketched portrait of a person with a speech bubble reading, "The Universe makes so much sense now!"
