I know it's late since the world already entered the new year, but first things first, I like to apologize once again about too much delays and too much inactivity on Twitter/X, FA, DA, Telegram, Mastodon, Bluesky, and Instagram throughout last 2024, because not only I'm still struggling with too much personal stuff between online and in real life as it keeps getting more and more worse than before, but I've been having an incredibly busy life so far with stuff between online and offline throughout the year. Just because I'm having habits of being online and offline too much when it comes to busy stuff, that does NOT mean that I'm careless to my friends and others on every social media platform. It's just that I wasn't chatable these days, but still chatting my friends when I got free time. Now that 2024 is over and 2025 has already arrived, I hope 2025 would be a much better year for me without too much inactivity and too much laziness and it will be a better year for me as I keep moving forward and keep fighting struggles more as always.

It may be strange to some who don't know about myself, but to me, 2024 has been compared to 1999, 2016, and 2021 and reminded me of 1904, 1909, 1914, 1919, 1924, 1929, 1934, 1939, 1944, 1949, 1954, 1959, 1964, 1969, 1974, 1979, 1984, 1989, 1994, 2004, 2009, 2014, and 2019. When it comes to comparing years to past years and years reminding me of past years, I never before... 2024 has been compared to 2016, because the Year Of The Dragon and the worldwide premiere of Kung Fu Panda 4 kinda changed my entire life since the worldwide premiere of Zootopia changed my entire life back in 2016 (obviously). Like 2016, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022, 2024 is another year that changed my entire life and my point of view to me, because of all the furry contents and furry related stuff, including inflation, weight gain, pear-shaped character, and fat and round character scenes. So far, 2024 has been a huge deal for the furry community, and the entire world as it was the biggest year in the history of the world and the furry fandom to me, because it was the Year Of The Dragon, which it was the biggest year for all the dragons, Pokemon dragons, and other furries and scalies of the furry community and the world. It's hard to believe that all the dragons and Pokemon dragons celebrated 2024: The Year Of The Dragon, but I had a really good year of the dragon so far, despite with too much struggles and other stuff.

So far 2024 gaves us great stuff that many are popular and many are massive hits with movies like Kung Fu Panda 4, Godzilla X Kong: The New Empire, If, The Wild Bunch, Dragonkeeper, The Bad Guys: Haunted Heist, Red One, and Sonic The Hedgehog 3, but except Mufasa: The Lion King, because it didn't do well in the box office, shows like Hazbin Hotel and the Ranma 1/2 reboot, and video games like Palworld, Slipstream: Rogue Space, Indigo Park, The WereCleaner, Snufkin: Melody Of Moominvalley, Raccoon Retail, Astro Bot, and Zen Zero Zenless. Besides those hits and misses of movies, shows, and video games of 2024, we've got more memes and challenges than ever before on Twitter/X, FA, DA, Bluesky, Instagram, Telegram, and other sites like the Dancing Toothless meme, the "Every Time You Repost This Image" meme with Buizel and Charizard, the Latex Butt Challenge, the muscle pec meme, the Godzilla Zeuszilla meme by Plasmilio from Twitter/X, the "Visualizing In The Mirror The Person I Want To Become" meme, and so many other memes and challenges throughout every social media sites.

A lot of stuff happened throughout the year whether it's good, bad, or sad, like Mickey Mouse and Steamboat Willie entered public domain, The Country Bear Jamboree closes at Walt Disney World, Rooster Teeth shuts down after 21 years, a rare blue dragons spotted down on the beach in Texas, the solar eclipse, MGM, Columbia Pictures, and the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade celebrates its 100th anniversary, the statue of Queen Elizabeth II was unveiled, Best Buy stops selling DVDs and Blu-Ray DVDs, The Game Theorists leaves YouTube and the internet, Xbox changed its name to Microsoft Gaming, the double cicada brood, A.K.A. "Cicada-geddon," where rhe cicada Brooks, XIII and XIX, crawled up from the soil, "Salty Licorice" became the new cat color, Funimation dissolved as it changes its name to Crunchroll, Marvel and Batman celebrates its 85th anniversary, Moo Deng, the baby pygmy hippo, became an internet sensation, the Paris Olympic Games, Hurricane Helene and Hurricane Milton, two giant pandas arrived at the national zoo in Washington, D.C., Godzilla's 70th anniversary/birthday, Felix The Cat's 105th anniversary/birthday, and the Cartoon Network website has shut down. Somewhere in the furry community, a lot of stuff happened throughout the Year Of The Dragon, like Bubble Fox's 10th anniversary, Dragoneer passed away, FurAffinity got hacked, and the new furcon Pawesome first established in the U.K. Oh, and the sad thing about 2024 is we all say goodbye to so many great celebrities and legends like Akira Toriyama, the creator of Dragon Ball Z, Kabosu, the Doge meme dog, Richard M. Sherman of The Sherman Brothers, James Earl Jones, and Mark Merlino, A.K.A. Syllable, one of the founding members of the furry fandom.

2024 is the year of the 25th anniversary of movies, shows, video games, and other stuff from 1999 like Digimon, The Matrix, Sega Dreamcast, and other stuff and it was a huge deal for 2024 besides the Year Of The Dragon. The year may be the biggest year in the history of the world to me, thanks to the Year Of The Dragon, but 2024 has too much ups and downs that I kept struggling and being busy with a lot of stuff and I've been having an incredibly busy life so far. But there are a few good moments that I will remember like celebrating the Year Of The Dragon, watching the two part Doctor Who episode "The Legend Of Ruby Sunday" and "Empire Of Death" on Disney+, and watching the Paris Olympic Games.

Like I said before and gonna say it again, now that 2024 is over and 2025 has already arrived, I hope 2025 would be a much better year for me without too much inactivity and too much laziness and it will be a better year for me as I keep moving forward and keep fighting struggles more as always. Not only that, 2025 would be another biggest year for the world and the furry fandom, because I'm looking forward for Zootopia 2, the live-action remakes of Lilo & Stitch and How To Train Your Dragon, Zootopia 2, the new Pokemon game and other great stuff. I hope the Lilo & Stitch and HTTYD live action remake will not be bad btw.

Let 2025 to be better and the best is yet to come!
