What this is
Timeline B is a prediction-market fiction engine. It watches real prediction markets on Polymarket for long shots — outcomes priced under 5% — and files a fictional news dispatch from the universe where that outcome actually happened. The market, its probability and its resolution date are real; every story is AI-generated satire and no real person said or did any of it.
