Say goodbye to Summer and welcome the start of a new, cozier season with these Fall/Autumn 2020 memes. Although the Autumn equinox isn’t until September 22, for many, the informal start to Fall is September 1st. Whether or not the seasons have physically started changing, the Pumpkin Spice Latte is here and stores are starting to sell Halloween supplies, so culturally, it’s Autumn.

2019 brought us Hot Girl Summer, which was followed by Christian Girl Autumn, a made-up season that both toasts and roasts basic white women who love Ugg boots and infinity scarves. This year, some people are looking to bring back Christian Girl Autumn by embracing the styles and relentless positivity associated with it.

Starbucks is selling the PSL earlier than ever this year so naturally, people are excited to get a sip of their favorite seasonal beverage.

For people who love Autumn, there’s no waiting for the 22nd to roll around. They’ll take every whiff of a change in seasons they can get.
