Why 2020 is a Trash Year

There's a lot of memes about this, but I want to keep track of things that happen each month, just to look back and see how cracky this year was.

January: Possible WWIII when the US assassinated Iranian General Soleimani.

February: Wildfire in Australia (had actually been happening throughout their summer, but the memes focus on February)

March: Most of the Western world goes on lockdown due to coronavirus

April:  Memes say that the US declassified UFOs, which yah kinda, but honestly anything is a UFO if you're bad enough at identifying things.

May: Murder hornets enter US

June: Hopefully this is nothing, but apparently there have been earthquakes in Yellowstone? Which, if any year was going to have a Supervolcano eruption, it would probably be this year... Let's hope June's trash status stays having to deal with riots in multiple cities. ETA: Also, apparently a dust cloud from the Sahara is heading towards the SE USA. Biblical plague anyone?

July: So far we have the possible collapse of the Three Gorges Dam in China which would be pretty catastrophic.  [Didn't happen. There was a spike in the pandemic though!]

August:  This might bleed over into September, but Hurricane Laura is a Category 4 and about to ram into the Gulf Coast. Also, wildfires in California!
