Whether you’re superstitious or just a little stitious, we’re approaching the second Friday the 13th of 2020. Memes about this informal holiday show how people are preparing for the 13th, and what it means to have an unlucky day in a year that’s already been host to so much bad luck.

On Twitter, some people are freaking out while others note that if we’ve survived 2020 so far, we can survive this.
