The Rapidly Escalating Crises of 2020

What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

Meme. I made the meme.

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

I created this meme to try to deal with my feelings surrounding the pandemic and other negative events that have occurred this year. Every time a new horrible event occurs, I add it to the meme, so it continuously evolves.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?
