Drew Curtis, founder of the news site Fark, playfully claimed to be a “time traveler from 2020” in 2015, hinting at challenging times ahead. His recent retweet of this claim has made him a TikTok sensation. While some see him as a prophet, Curtis clarifies he isn’t a real time traveler but uses his computer skills to deduce the future.
Amid the tumultuous Trump era, Curtis forecasts improvement around the November election, but warns of renewed lockdowns due to lax adherence to CDC guidelines. Despite queries on the coronavirus, pop culture questions emerged, with Curtis predicting a One Direction reunion after a member’s rehab stint.
Social media reactions vary from awe to skepticism, with some dubbing Curtis a savior figure. However, he emphasizes staying informed through news subscriptions and vigilance, concluding with a simple message: “Wear your mask in public, stay safe!”
In Curtis’s words, “I run a news aggregation website, and reading everything keeps me a step ahead.”
