2020: A Year of Endless Disappointment

Steve, our esteemed Archivist, spent the year 2020 cataloging the never-ending parade of calamities that seemed to march across the horizon like an army of doom.

Some notable highlights include:

• The US Presidential Election: a spectacle of national division and social media-fueled madness.
• The constant reminders that the world was on fire, but not, like, literally on fire.
