So... like the "That's Your Horoscope for Today" song by Weird "Al" Yankovic?

...no

You can just do that, though.

shadowtodd.bsky.social•42 days ago

I do do that, you got me. It'd be better if I actually knew the future though

Todd: yes, you'll actually be getting married in 5 years. Someone who's really rich, handsome, and funny!
Person: yes! Thank you Todd! You're the best! I can't wait to manifest this!
*five years later, married to fucking Cory Feldman*
Person: ...fuck...

Todd's in his Cassandra arc

This is absolutely why prophecies are so cryptic. You'd also get the benefit of getting to foresee their hilarious fumbling about trying to avert fate and instead causing it to come to pass

Get it right twice, then go hog wild with the lies.

In fiction I believe that's what most future seers be doing

greensmilie.bsky.social•42 days ago

That's the neat part. You don't HAVE to be able to tell people's futures to write misleading prophecies. You just have to convince the rubes.

it's not funny without them realizing they misread it

SECOND APPARITION
Be bloody, bold, and resolute. Laugh to scorn
The power of man, for none of woman born
Shall harm Macbeth.
MACBETH
Then live, Macduff; what need I fear of thee?
FIRST WITCH: [giggling quietly]
SECOND WITCH: shhhh! [struggling to hold back her own laughter]

THIRD WITCH: Also, Iggy Azalea is a transformational pop icon, you should [snerk] totally buy like $30k of her merch!
