Senior administration officials said the measure will see the entire country placed in a state of technologically enhanced suspended animation for a length of time not yet determined.<\/p>\n<p>According to a joint statement from the Departments of Energy and Tranquility, all American households, businesses, and public offices will be transitioned \u201cgradually but quite firmly\u201d into Chill Mode by the end of the week. Under the plan, citizens will remain \u201cpeacefully inert yet preservable,\u201d explained Dr. Hiltrude Gurney, Undersecretary of Societal Rest. \u201cIt\u2019s about hitting pause, so we can all catch our collective breath as a nation,\u201d Gurney told reporters, noting the benchmark goal to reduce national metabolic output by at least 94 percent.<\/p>\n<p>Federal contractors have already deployed teams to fit every American residence with certified Dormancy Cocoons. The Department of Transportation confirmed that stationary vehicles will be sealed in \u201cslumber pockets,\u201d while all pets\u2014except ceremonial pigeons\u2014will be placed on recharge mats. \u201cWe recognize that keeping an entire civilization napping is a logistical feat,\u201d said Charles Nicksorp, Director of National Hibernate Operations, \u201cwhich is why we\u2019re partnering with mattress magnates and vape shops for expert consultation.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Despite initial confusion among state governors\u2014several of whom reportedly entered Chill Mode meetings prior to reading their briefing packets\u2014White House officials continue to assure the public that essential services will be minimally disrupted. \u201cAll emergency responses will occur via remote dream-communications until further notice,\u201d explained the Office of Situational Napping.<\/p>\n<p>Market analysts have warned of unpredictable consequences, including the sudden halt of commerce, education, and gravity-dependent infrastructure. A government-commissioned fact sheet, however, describes potential upsides. \u201cWe anticipate noticeable improvements in air quality, broadband speed, and the national sense of longing,\u201d reads the summary. \u201cAnd with all disputes tabled for the duration of Chill Mode, conflict metrics are projected to hit an all-time low.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>As of press time, guidance regarding an exit procedure has not been finalized. \u201cThe important thing is that everyone closes their eyes and thinks relaxing thoughts,\u201d said Gurney, before dissolving into a faint cloud of lavender vapor. The Department of Tranquility recommends that any Americans still awake after transition should \u201cmeditate quietly until further instruction is provided, or until the concept of time resumes.\u201d<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Washington, D.C. \u2013 In an ambitious move to promote national calm and conserve resources, the U.S. government unveiled its inaugural \u201cChill Mode\u201d shutdown on Tuesday.
