I have some time this morning so I will introduce the project I’m taking part in. I am sailing on Saga Farmann, a reconstruction of the Klåstad ship. It dates from 998 and was found near the the site of Kaupang in southern Norway. Only 40% of the original ship survives #Saga25 #MedievalSky 1/

It’s the summer of 2025, and a patient wakes up from a 5-year coma.
Doc: what year is it?
Patient: 2020.
Doc: Can you tell me who the president is?
Patient: I… I… I don’t know!
Doc: Oh, no. There’s been brain damage.
Intern: Wait! Doctor! It’s okay! Their chart says they were a reporter!

Once again: "Who was president in 2020?" Is a question so many politicians, pundits and even mainstream media have a hard time answering correctly.
Rep. Mike Collins: "Fast-forward to the Biden administration. They put this on steroids. Example? Summer of love, where rioters were out there burning police stations, assaulting officers."
