...Cthulhu's eating fries at Carl, Jr's along with the rest of us. If we're not all going mad, what will become of us...?
IDHS, Indiana's own (and generally well-intentioned) answer to DHS, mostly concentrates on known dangers: tornado preparedness, having a bug-out bag, dealing with the rare (but overdue) midwestern earthquake, etc.
However, sometimes they appear to be concerned about nameless horrors from outside normal reality:
Yes, it says, "Did you SEE
something commuting to work or grabbing a bite to eat?" Emphasis mine, but when
things begin eating junk food and wrestling Chevies through rush-hour traffic, it's time to go home, finish lining the basement with tinfoil, stencil the Elder Sign (as drawn by Bill Elder!) on the door and hope you'll survive. I'll call your 877 number from there but they better have something way better than kryptonite or plutonium to wield against the
Things. John Campbell? John Carter? Randolph Carter? Ya'll better get over here, and only stop to pick up some clever boffins from the Miskatonic on the way.

Something a little more useful than a toll-free number.
The ones in the picture look like Autons to me. Perhaps we need to head to the nearest Tardis.

Back in the day, when the United States took the collectivist threat seriously, and the Left had not yet been able to sour the American public on being so ferociously anti communist, there was the House Committee on Unamerican Activities. It questioned a lot of actors and Hollywood stars, which are not always the same thing.
Peter Lorre was questioned about whether he knew any communists or Communist Party members. He played dumb and asked how he could tell. The committee member doing the questioning said, "Well, have you ever met anyone you wondered about?"
Peter Lorre responded with a list of everyone he had met since he came to America in the early 30's, after making "Murderer Among Us" ("M") with Fritz Lang.
I'm starting to think Harvey Kurtzman is running the whole shooting match from an undisclosed location below Dealey Plaza.
