Hm. That's pretty interesting. I just checked and my birthday has lots of very appropriate holidays for me. It's National gormet coffee day, and everyone knows that I love coffee, is also national thesauras day, and national peking duck day... whatever that is. and Winnie The pooh day.

My birthday is on National Croissant Day. Nice, Belchic. Also, I just found that today, June 19, is not only Father’s Day this year, but it’s also Juneteenth, also known as Freedom Day, Emancipation Day, and Jubilee Day.

Twenty-one years ago, the 9/11 attacks happened.
Very soon, the limited-time event for Turning Red will begin in Disney Magic Kingdoms.
I bring up these two different things, because five months ago, a reviewer of animation on YouTube called TheMysteriousMrEnter uploaded a video where he reviewed Turning Red, and one of the criticisms he had for that movie was that despite it taking place in 2002, there was no reference to 9/11 in it.
This particular criticism that MrEnter had with Turning Red resulted in people making memes where that movie got tied into 9/11, and also calling him out on it. And the people who called him out on criticizing the movie for having no reference to 9/11 were in the right to have done so, including AniMat, who discussed this in one of the episodes of his Crazy Cartoon Cast series and made that story in that episode the highlight of that episode. After all, Turning Red is a family film from Disney and Pixar about a girl who turns into a giant red panda as she goes through puberty. The story of that movie is told from the perspective of that girl, Meilin “Mei” Lee, so of course, there’s not gonna be any mention of 9/11 in it.
Also, correct me if I’m wrong, but last time I checked, ever since the attacks happened, people in movies have been avoiding adding 9/11 references to them. I don’t know what made MrEnter think that a reference to 9/11 should be made in a movie, even one that is a Disney/Pixar film about a thirteen-year-old girl who turns into a giant red panda as she goes through puberty, and neither does anyone who called him out on this particular criticism he had with the movie.
Now, I was fourteen years old when the 9/11 attacks happened. I was in school when I first heard about the attacks. I heard people talk about it, even after the day it all happened, but I didn’t think about it too much, because I was thinking about things that kids my age back then would think about, like going through my days at school.
I’ll post here the video of the highlight of that one episode of AniMat’s Crazy Cartoon Cast that I just mentioned, so that you guys can hear what AniMat had to say in response to MrEnter’s criticism of Turning Red not having any reference to 9/11 if you haven’t done so.

Yeah i don't know what he was on when he made that video, but your not wrong about people not wanting to meantion 9/11 because ever since that day many comics, shows, games, even movies have gone away from using the twin towers, aside from documentaries and stuff. And I'm sorry about your experience with that day since i was two months old when it happened.

Well, nothing happened to me when it happened. I wasn’t at the place where it happened or anywhere near it. I just heard it being talked about a lot as I went through my days at school.

I just saw today that on this forum and other forums I’m a member of, many of the links to the images I have on my NickPic account are broken! I tried to fix the problem by re-inserting the links in the posts, and it worked for a little bit for some of the images, while it didn’t work for others. But then, the links to the images that I just resolved become broken again a few minutes later! I don’t know why this problem is going on.

Oh Dear.
That is strange. Do you think you may try some other sites to upload images to, like Trello?

I’ve got it figured out, now. What I’ll be doing, now, is uploading my images on Discord in a server I just created solely for uploading my images. There, I will use the links to the images to post the images on this and other forums.
