I just realized as I was uploading this strip that it’s number 357. I totally should have had some kind of gun gag.

For those who haven’t heard, this is real news. Probably the first real news that orange-shirt guy has ever read off his phone. (Did I ever give this guy a name?”)

Some clown in the WEF was talking about how many tons of carbon coffee crops produce. Which doesn’t make sense to me, since coffee is a plant and a plant consumes carbon from the atmosphere. So I’m guessing it’s the harvesting and roasting which causes the carbon output, but is that taking into account the carbon it first absorbed to grow? Also, apparently “cooking food” accounts for one-fourth of all man-made carbon emissions, so the WEF will probably soon announce that feeding humans is illegal.

No meat!

OK.

No cooked foods! No bread, no rice, no oats!

Well, OK I guess.

The population must eat bugs!

If you say so.

No more coffee!

We will rise up and kill all of you evil overlords!

That, my friends, is what is known as, “the straw.”
