Capitol Confusion: Government Building Transforms Into Giant Rubik's Cube, Officials Left Twisted
In an unprecedented twist of fate, the downtown government building has mysteriously morphed into a colossal Rubik's Cube overnight, leaving politicians and citizens alike completely scrambled. Witnesses reported hearing a faint clicking noise around midnight, followed by a kaleidoscope of colors shifting and turning on the building's facade.
Mayor Twisty McBlockface addressed the baffling transformation at a press conference, stating, "We were expecting budget cuts, not a three-dimensional puzzle challenge. Our first priority is to solve the building before the next city council meeting, or else they'll just keep rotating the problem away." When asked if this was an elaborate metaphor for political gridlock, he replied, "At this point, I think the building is mocking us."
Inside the building, officials find themselves physically stuck in different segments after an unexpected rotation trapped the finance committee in the orange corner and the health department in the blue edge. Senator Cubeley lamented, "I went to propose a bill, and next thing I know, I’m stuck between a yellow face and a red one—I’m not sure if I’m making progress or just coloring outside the lines."
City engineers have called in Rubik's Cube grandmasters to attempt a solution, but progress has been slow due to the building's "stubbornly non-compliant stickers," which refuse to stay in place. Meanwhile, the public has turned the spectacle into a tourist attraction, with souvenir mini-Cubes and "I got twisted at City Hall" T-shirts flying off the shelves. As for the building itself, it seems content to keep everyone guessing—after all, in politics, sometimes you just have to turn things around to find the right angle.
