I just wanted to say hello. My brother just finished his time machine and I went for a cool number: 2020. Yes. I do live in the middle of Paris, but I have always been interested in the history of Britain. I didn’t just choose 2020 because it’s a cool number, but also it was an interesting time. Just a while after the first two world wars and also during the global pandemic, Covid-19. Not to mention the total destruction of the whole of the British economy a few years later, leading to the third and, arguably the worst, world war.
I was offered a trip back in time to meet you all, but I backed out last minute, because seriously, life must have been awful then and I express my deepest sympathies to all of you living through that. So instead, i decided to write you all a letter, to warn about what’s to come next, so you can make the future an even happier place. So when you’re not using paperclips as currency, thank me ( I checked the history books, people really did that happen for centuries).
To be honest, I have no idea if people will listen to what I’m going to say, but you’re reading this so, hey, maybe. Can you please, please, please, share this with everyone you know? I think in 2020 there was the “internet” so maybe, use “social media” to give this to them...
