Even the Onion is more trustworthy than Breitbart. What I wanted to read are the comments criticizing Disney for making this change. Townhall now has a VIP paywall, and I can’t find an article on Fox News about this, so I checked Breitbart due to being a free source while I can read their comments.

Fun fact, I was originally going to exaggerate how much Disney hates Song of the South in one of my posts, but the way I did it sounds offensive (it basically says they would rather violate copyright laws and put movies and shows not belonging to Disney (including content from Viacom, the company that sued YouTube) on Disney+ than put up Song of the South on Disney+). Therefore, it wasn’t in the post about Splash Mountain.

While Disney doesn’t want to do anything about Song of the South to the point where they don’t even have it on Disney+, here are some other things that won’t see the light of the day.

- Electric Soldier Porygon (gave 700 children seizures, hence the episode’s ban)
- South Park’s episodes 200 and 201 (depicted Mohammed in a bear suit, resulting in a threat of retaliation)
- Mario Party 1 (people have torn their hands trying to play the game)
- The Censored Eleven (same reason as Song of the South)
- Out of Jimmy’s Head (Cartoon Network bitterly regrets airing this show to the point where they erased all traces of it. You can’t even find it on YouTube)

Let’s also not forget the Disney song Arabian Nights and the Fire Temple from Ocarina of Time. Although they are still parts of their respective media, all future versions will remain censored.

Man I wish mine were, waiting for a Japan package containing some JE stuff. Also waiting for a few shirts from the US but they will probably take some time considering corona.

Importing can be a pain. The last parcel I had come from overseas had an option where they calculated the tax you owed in advance and you paid up front. Practically flew through customs and got to the UK from the USA in just a couple of days.

I only imported something once (a chespin plush). It took a month to get to me. I’m not sure if that’s good or not.

Agree, especially since they wanted me to pay 160 bucks for a 100 bucks package from Japan when I should only have paid 30 bucks something in import fees. Luckily they will give me money back but sheesh it's not that they can't contact me for proof, lol. But yeah they changed to pay fees when you pick up rather than in advance due to corona here I suspect so yeah had to file for money back afterwards.

That's lucky though, I had a few US packages taking some time but no fees so that was good :P

I'd say in these times it's good. Had a package from US taking like that because it was lost for 2-3 weeks in Europe lol.
 
The current world events are really throwing deliveries out of whack. My father still hasn't received his package three months after ordering them online. And a company that I prefer not to name canceled our order from there even though we paid up and haven't gotten the funds back. Thanks a lot, you annoying virus.
 
Ironically most packages that took time went smooth with customs and delivery but this one that got to Sweden fast is stuck ironically...
 
After one month, I decided to rotate my user title and signature for different quotes. Last month, it was about the cancel culture and how threats aren’t justified. This month, it’s about respecting others and the threads they made.
 
When it comes to seasons changes and how the year progresses, I would normally think August is the worst month of the year. For starters, the month arrangement (i.e. 1st of the month being a Sunday, 18th of the month being a Friday) is not just isolated from the rest of the year (May and June too), but the date columns containing both January 1st and January 2nd are towards the later end of the first week (August 6th and August 7th). It also has no holidays, it’s hot and humid, and when school begins in most states. However, it avoids being the worst month during the leap years thanks to the Summer Olympics, but due to the COVID-19 pandemic, this is not the case. But at least the month arrangement isn’t isolated for that February also starts on the same day of the week that August begins.

I also have favorite year arrangements, which is weird. The ones that are the best are when August 1st is a Sunday (i.e. 1999), Tuesday (i.e. 2017), or Friday (i.e. 2003). And in the last three years when August 1st was on any of those three days of the week I mentioned (2010, 2014, and 2017), August was one of the better months of the year when it came to my personal experiences.
 
My landlord came into my place yesterday unexpectedly and I completely forgot when I moved in 4 years ago I didn't tell him about my 2 free-roaming rabbits lmao. He looked right at my 12lb rabbit laying on the floor and was like WOW.

Surpringly he didn't care? He was just like "how did she get so big" haha. Which is fair. Thank god.
