In the moments before cosmic expansion rips apart our lightyear-scale plasma bodies, the last message sent will be a doge meme or something.
Your ability to make accurate predictions is inversely proportional to the extent that you take advantage of that foreknowledge. Time travellers are at both ends of this scale.

I heard there were two legs of stone
out in the desert, all alone,
but you don't really care for statues, do you?
It goes like this: the great, the small,
each empire in its turn will fall
and written on the platform "OZYMANDIAS"
Tired: Horror movies are too hard now that everyone has cell phones.
Wired: Poetry is too hard now that everyone has IoT-connected fridges that send them real-time updates on who is eating their plums.

My son 🙋🏽♂️was SO cute today, he asked me "dad are clouds candy?" 😍 I told him they were water. 💦 Then he asked "dad, what's Earth's defense system?" and then I remembered I don't have a son and he asked again his eyes now obsidian black "what is the defense system father"

9:34 AM: Now I am superlatively, actually woke.
Approach the edge of apocalypse, then retreat at the last moment. This spawns an alternate universe in which you did not: a dead world that can now be exploited for its resources.
Innumerable things nurture man,
Who has nothing good with which he can
Recompense heaven
Except perhaps seven
New souls delivered by hand.
Because, stop for Death, I could not,
He instead stopped for me on the spot.
We drove across town,
To a house underground,
And the centuries count but for naught
Half a league onward, and so on.
Was there a man dismay'd? No one.
Boldly they rode
Into Death's abode
But six hundred is not much to go on.
As Prufrock sighs over his tea,
His life is consumed by ennui.
He imagines it better,
(if quite a bit wetter)
as taking place under the sea.
This is just to say that I munched
On your plums in the icebox for lunch
Which I think you were saving,
But they sated my craving
And packed so delicious a punch!
I met a traveller from an antique land,
Who said - "A vast stone sits in the yard. Is it inside or outside your mind?"
So I killed him.
