In no particular order, some things that have happened in 2020 (I'm sure I've missed many more):
Australia wildfires
Iran attacks US military base in Iraq
Ukrainian flight crashes, all 176 passengers die
Kobe and Gigi Bryant die in kelicopter crash
Ahmaud Arbery killed
George Floyd killed
Breonna Taylor killed
Russia put bounties on US troops
Russia leaking radiation from nuclear plant
Beirut explosion
Visakhapatnam gas leak
Indian ocean cyclones
Locust swarms in India and Africa (I blame Moses)
California wildfires
Worst stock market drop since 1987
GDP drop -32.9%, worst drop on record
Reynhard Sinaga found guilty
Harvey Weinstein found guilty (more of a positive thing)
Golden state killer finally sentenced to prison
Lori Loughlin and husband sentenced to prison
Two gulf storms form in gulf, approaching Louisiana
Less noteworthy:
Donald Trump impeached, acquitted
Prince Harry and Meghan renounce royalty
UK withdraws from EU
Summer Olympics postponed
PE Exams canceled, postponed, moved to CBT
Not to take away from anything above, but:
The great Engineerboards.com crash of 2020
And all of this while dealing with the Coronavirus pandemic.
