  Gucci belt

  Have you ever seen a person roll up in an expensive car to later find out they rotate between friends couches at night? Or a girl with a channel purse riding the bus? I thought of both when I came across this meme on Instagram. Since the Second World War, the US has posed as the leader of the world. We’ve boasted economical sucess, technological advances and number one in the sciences. Then COVID hit and our true colors came out. I wouldn’t go as far as this meme and claim that the US is a third world country because we’re clearly not. But we’re also not number one like we pretend to be. We were on top of the world is everyday back in 1945, but that spot is not ours anymore. The current administration has proven inapt in ever sense of the word. And now the world sees us as the posers we’ve become. I’m hoping for better days after these elections.

  Be skeptical

  My older brother has a friend named Rory. Now this happened sometime in late July 2020. Rory's wife Kayla went into labor with their first child. When Rory alerted his parents told his parents to come visit the kid they decided they should get tested for Covid-19 just to be sure they signed in and registered for the test, then they waited inline to get tested, and after about an hour of waiting they decided to leave and just go see the baby. After visiting them they went home and life continued. About 4 days later they received a letter from the hospital that said "Unfortunately your tests came back positive for Covid-19" which was odd since they didnt get tested.

  Wearing masks in the US has become a political issue rather than common sense. It is fiercely debated, and many think it’s an infringement on their rights. One group has responded by creating fake “mask exemption” cards to present to people in public.
