I’m not sure what denotes an image as being pride related other than rainbows and flags, but I’ll do my best. 🤷♀️ @pillowprincess gets the first one, as she requested this.

LGBT Pride Month occurs in the United States to commemorate the Stonewall riots, which occurred at the end of June 1969. As a result, many pride events are held during this month to recognize the impact LGBT people have had in the world.
Three presidents of the United States have officially declared a pride month. First, President Bill Clinton declared June "Gay & Lesbian Pride Month" in 1999[42] and 2000.[43] Then from 2009 to 2016, each year he was in office, President Barack Obama declared June LGBT Pride Month.[44] Later, President Joe Biden declared June LGBTQ+ Pride Month in 2021.[45] Donald Trump became the first Republican president to acknowledge LGBT Pride Month in 2019, but he did so through tweeting rather than an official proclamation; the tweet was later released as an official "Statement from the President."[46][47]
Beginning in 2012, Google displayed some LGBT-related search results with different rainbow-colored patterns each year during June.[48][49][50] In 2017, Google also included rainbow coloured streets on Google Maps to display Gay Pride marches occurring across the world.[51]
