Covid-19 Is a Wicked Problem
When no superpower or developed country alone is able or capable of solving the global coronavirus crisis, whose solution requires the knowhow of both friendly and unfriendly nations.
With Beijing’s initial cover-ups and President Trump’s recurring lies and conspiracies on the coronavirus while in office, the world, which recognizes that Covid-19 is a wicked problem, is skeptical that these two superpowers could put aside their differences to fight the pandemic.

Pi and Friends
When the irrational number π appears to be particularly attracted to numerical buddies like e, i, and 𝜙 whenever they are indulged in some extra-mathematical activities together, as revealed by their intimate liaisons.
Don’t the following numerical relationships prove that pi and friends have an affinity for one another?
π ≈ 6/5 𝜙²
π ≈ (9 – e)
iⁱ = e^(-π/2)
e^(iπ) + 1 = 0
(- )! = √π
eⁱˣ = cos x + i sin x

The Year of the Covidox
When Chinese at their annual family reunion dinner held before or during the Lunar New Year of the Ox are banned from screaming auspicious or superstitious phrases at each other to minimize the odds of corona infection, but are encouraged to play pre-recorded good-luck or prosperity messages instead.
In the Year of the Covidox, dozens of diners had their non-Chinese neighbors report them to the police for noise pollution, and for failing to wear a mask while broadcasting their deafening auspicious greetings.

Trumpffiti
Any creative or mean writing, or funny or X-rated drawing, on Donald J. Trump in a public square, which pokes fun at his idiotic and idiosyncratic behaviors; or at his narcissistic, racist, and supremacist tweets.
A sample of Trumpffiti are:
1. 🇺🇸🤥 + 🇨🇳🦠 = 😷x + 💀y. By 1/20/21, x = 24M, y = 400K
2. UNfit 4 President: #NotMyPresident
3. Trump’s crimes: Pussygate (2016), Zelenskygate (2019), Coronagate (2020), Capitolgate (2021)

If Trump Had a Burmese Wife
When Donald J. Trump wished one of his wives were from Burma, who would have reminded him to seek undemocratic advice from her country’s military coup leaders, which could have allowed him to have faux more years at the White House should his numerous lawsuits against alleged fraudulent voting fail.
If Trump had a Burmese wife or mistress, he’d have undemocratically been re-elected, by staging a professionally planned coup à la Birmanie, or by declaring a years-old martial law to prolong his illegal stay at the White House.
