Collected Item: “I can't believe it's riot season already”

Give your story a title.

I can't believe it's riot season already

What sort of object is this: text story, photograph, video, audio interview, screenshot, drawing, meme, etc.?

Meme

Tell us a story; share your experience. Describe what the object or story you've uploaded says about the pandemic, and/or why what you've submitted is important to you.

This meme is a comparison of U.S. Fall holiday jokes. Normally, we joke that in the fall the stores start changing out their holiday items the day after a holiday. For example; the day after thanksgiving stores will be stocked and ready for Christmas. This meme is joking that we have not even recovered from Covid-19 and another disaster has already begun.

Use one-word hashtags (separated by commas) to describe your story. For example: Where did it originate? How does this object make you feel? How does this object relate to the pandemic?

ASU, HST580, decorations, meme, covid, riot
