So Biden is going to have 200,000 flags instead of people at the inauguration.

Interesting question: how far in advance do you have to order 200,000 flags? Because I'm guessing they've been planning on no-one attending in person for months.

@pete this really feels like a kind of eerie dystopian future, an inauguration without any people present, i guess the entire presidency will be run over video conferencing too ? 😀

@orionwl Biden is paranoid enough to wear two masks at once, even after getting vaccinated, so probably yes.

A remote presidency is probably also what the people actually in power around him want: all the better to isolate him from reality.

@pete @orionwl with deep fakes he might keep being president well after his death if it came to that.
I think they fired the screenwriter for our cluster of the Matrix and put the intern in charge of it.
