Welcome to the shit show that is 2020!
I don’t think anyone could have even dreamed our current situation.
Now before you get mad and say that I’m not taking things seriously, I am. I just deal with things with humour. Which is why I made this pattern. Making this has allowed me to get my aggression out at the things we have lost because of being quarantined.
My hope is that this can help someone else too.
Stay safe everyone.
