      A woman predicted the exact date Biden would step down a few weeks before it happened. She claims to be a world class astrologist. People sort of viewed this as a wow moment. Completely ignoring the fact that it’s been talked about that he might not re run if he won in 2020 (which I think was actually a misquote, but ultimately irrelevant for this discussion). There had been a lot of talk and push for him to step down, especially in the month or so prior to it happening. That someone sort of recognized all this but claimed the stars gave them the exact date is such an obvious Occam’s razor moment lol but people really did believe she was a master level astrologer.

      Doesn’t those results mean that we all are world class astrologers? Just roll the dice and you’re as good as the best.

      My sister. Last year she begged me to do my charts for the next year. Said I would be happily married and on my way to the EU in a new job.

      I’m divorced and unemployed. But hey, good news is she’ll do my charts over.
