I took a nap today, and apparently dreamt a satirical comic. In it there was a cavernous lab. In the center of this lab was a vast aquarium tank, containing a large, orange creature. The large orange creature had tentacles and a great big, very familiar looking head with a very familiar terrible hairdo.
It looked like a sort of octopus. It filled the tank, with its head sticking up above the rim. It was shouting things.
All around this creature were frantic people in white coats, some with clipboards, some driving around large pallet sized wheeled bins of pink and yellow boxes marked "poll results."
In a corner was a large machine, from which the poll results were generated. You could see guards herding people into a door in its side, but no sign of any exit.
A waiting wheeled bin was filling with only yellow boxes.
A panicked person was on a catwalk above the tank throwing the last of the pink boxes into the mouth of the angry monster. It wanted more.
There were no more. People with clipboards were backing away from the monster as it shrieked with anger over being offered the yellow boxes.
Someone told it there were no more positive poll results and it grabbed him with a tentacle and ate him.
And that's where I woke up. I think I should walk away from the news cycle for a bit, if I'm dreaming of a massive Trumptopus being fed ground up human beings labeled "poll results." End.
