From the label

“As we all know, something is going on. What did Neo say in the White Rabbit scene? "Are you ever not sure if you're dreaming or awake?" You can feel it but you can't explain it. A misplaced author's name. An event remembered differently. A movie that wasn't quite like you thought it was. How can so many people misremember so many things in the EXACT same way? Wasn't Christmas on the 26th? So much is changing in the past. That, we can prove, but why? Did Cern tear our reality? Are the Dracos rewriting the Simulation in real time? Why does it always point back to 46664? Research it now! Find the hard copies before they finish making changes.”
