Take me back to November 8, 2020

Let's take a stroll down memory lane.

It is Sunday, November 8, 2020. Anyone born today will have the star sign Scorpio. People are currently enjoying their weekend. However, because it's a Sunday, some are dreading the days ahead.

It's November, so the evenings are getting darker and the days are getting colder. The song "Positions" by Ariana Grande is at the top of the music charts in the United States and the United Kingdom. Donald Trump is the President of the United States, and the movie Let Him Go is at the top of the box office.

Boris Johnson is the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. Despite restrictions and mask wearing, many countries and US states are beginning to witness a "second wave" of Covid-19. As a result, many countries are tightening restrictions and going back into a second lockdown. If you were to travel back to this day, notable figures such as MO3, Diego Maradona, Papa Bouba Diop, and Brodie Lee would all still be alive.

On TV, people are watching popular shows such as "The Walking Dead", "Ozark", "Ex on the Beach", and "Succession". Meanwhile, gamers are playing titles such as "Metro Exodus", "Gears 5", "Pokémon Sword and Shield", and "Resident Evil 3 (Remake)". Kids and teenagers are watching TV shows such as "Blaze and the Monster Machines", "The Loud House", "Raven's Home", and "The Adventures of Paddington".
