PRIDE month 2024

I think the concept of a "month" stems from the fact that Gay Pride Day is actually June 28 (the anniversary of the Stonewall Riots, and the birth of the Gay Pride movement), and it's difficult to have so many events on one day. On my little island, we have always had celebrations mid-June, so as not to conflict with the New York City event at the end of the month.

BUT - (in the US) Veterans Day (formerly Armistice Day - "the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month" - the end of WW1) has Veterans celebrations and recognitions all month long, for exactly the same reasons as for Pride, making the month of November essentially Veterans Month.

Also, with the proliferation of various other "months" and "days" (see above - Mental Health Month, Men's Health Month, and my personal favorite, Pet A Cat Day on June 5th), unless we find a way to add about 102 more months to the calendar, there will always be overlapping and extended celebrations.
HAPPY PRIDE!

I’m declaring May 2025 International Feline Pride Month, in your honor

I’m also declaring July 2025 the the first global Clueless Old Creepy Knucklehead month in recognition of certain forum members
 
June is also Incel Rage Awareness Month. the month of pride and freedom of consensual sex triggers them, and they will spend all month (at minimum) raging about it lol
