$ journalctl --list-boots
IDX BOOT ID                          FIRST ENTRY                 LAST ENTRY

Re: Dates keep jumping

It seems the only ones in which the time is still skewed for "last enrty" were very short - presumably you shutdown or rebooted quickly, right?  Assuming this was just due to any time sync service not firing yet, the apparent problem would just be that your hardware is failing to store the date / time.

Is this an EFI or bios system?  Are there any other symptoms that might related to a bad CMOS battery?

Are you dual booting any other OS?
