Dreamt that a new law came into effect making it necessary to mop up your dog's piss in addition to lifting its turds, and that sanitary towels were being used for that purpose (infosec.pub)

It's the only part I remember.

The image came with some attached explanation:

Dragons are unstoppable engines of destruction, unbeatable in racing games.
But if you call them cute, they will rage quit.

I specifically remember the term "rage quit".

(The lizard is a Broad Headed Skink.)

While trying to fall asleep, i noticed how similar the words and concepts "constitution" and "kernel" seemed, and something like this appeared in my imagination. (infosec.pub)

I got the idea for multiple presidents while recreating the image.

How I recreated it (Fedora):

  1. sudo dnf install grub2-emu
  2. sudo grub2-emu --root=nvme0n1p5 (device is /boot partition)
  3. configfile (host)/boot/grub2/grub.cfg in grub console
  4. Select everything, right click, select "copy as html"
  5. Edit the HTML (includes copying the background-color attribute to the html element)
