If you’re reading this, you made it. You survived 2020. Gold stars for all.
This year was, by most measures, the strangest, darkest timeline. A global pandemic upended our lives and rendered them unrecognizable. COVID-19 took away people’s lives and livelihoods.
And let us not forget that this was also the year that Election Day turned into Election Month in the United States; Prince Harry quit the royal family; Kobe Bryant, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Chadwick Boseman and Eddie Van Halen died; and the heartbreaking photos of bewildered, bandaged koalas and terrifying orange skies out of Australia, which was on fire, became something of a harbinger of all to come.
