You were saying?
I have a cooked piece of spaghetti and I know how to use it.

“The second gunman slipped and fell on his gun which went off and killed him! How did this happen?!”
I had another cooked piece of spaghetti.

I don’t know who this officiator guy is but I like him already.

He… uh. He looks like he has a bit of a skin condition.

Why did it have to be snakes?

“My eyes! My eyes!”
That one had fra diavalo sauce on it.

I know never to get in a fight with you. In fact, I’m not even sure it’s safe to eat with you without putting my life in jeopardy.

No one can resist my flechettuccini alfredo. It’s killer.

The smaller, pointer McDonald’s fries make excellent mini-crossbow ammo, as well. They’ll stick in an apple.

Hmm. This thing about no Eeb can be allowed to keep their telekinesis seems rather extreme. The rampage of the insane Eebs happened before Devyat was born. It was not remotely her fault, so why is anyone proposing punishing her for it? Now if she starts killing people with her telekinesis or commits other offences that would be different. It is the action that is the crime, not having the power itself.

Rampaging unclamped Eebs destroyed entire planets and killed billions. We know what a good person Devyat is, but they don’t know her from a black hole. What they do know is the kind of damage an unclamped Eeb can cause and how stopping one is only slightly easier than stopping a Kreebrick.
Also, when the Eebs were freed didn’t the GOP pass a law saying all telekinetic Eebs had to be clamped? I don’t have time to search the archives, but I feel like that was a thing.

I have been in lots of these meetings as well. And, as the leader in at least half of them. I usually have a course of action mapped out before it starts. The purpose is to see if I overlooked anything. Seems like this meeting leader used the same scheme. 😉

I have a theory about the GOB. We see that a kangaroo is walking around and acting like a sentient creature. It looks like most of the “sentient” races would probably be no smarter than kangaroos without the translators.
Either that, or the kangaroos in this universe are a LOT smarter than those in our universe. You’d think they would notice.
PS – I am beginning to dislike those two idiots. At this point, I could agree with using their planet for a weapon demonstration, or another Eeb rampage. They clearly aren’t sentient. About like our leaders I suppose.

“you are welcome to make the attempt.”
Well, you could always just sneak up to her while she’s having a drink at the bar and clamp her…
Just keep a lot of Furryites around. Of course then you have the problem of oppressing the Furryites (again!) to control your unclamped Eebs. Living in fear is bad for your soul, and having the power to make others protect you just makes it worse.

Yep. “Who will bell the cat?”
COOKED spaghetti. COOKED.

Motion to adjourn! SECONDED! CARRIED!
And now the competent are free to act.
Eh, typo. Fourth panel fifth line: Krebrick instead of Kreebrick?
