gollark: Unless I make the future message predictor somehow far too smart and it begins to guess at details of the future accurately.
gollark: Also, it won't be able to provide useful information about the future.
gollark: But without a CTC or something it can't tell you what time it'll be sent, which is a feature I want.
gollark: Maybe it could, instead of actually having a send-back-in-time command, just show a random message "from the future".
