What do they celebrate today, September 19, in Russia and around the world?

Actually, holidays on specific dates are kind of unpredictable, because different countries and cultures celebrate different events. For example, September 19 is the feast day of Saint Lucy in some Christian traditions, and in Mexico it's Independence Day (they celebrate right in the middle of September). But in Russia, I can't think of any major holiday on that particular date.

As for international stuff, there are various professional awareness days and so on - for instance, September often has car-free days or environmental dates. But specifically on the 19th, I don't recall anything really big and well-known. Maybe in your region or in some specific field (like a particular profession) there's something local, but that depends on the context.

Your best bet is to check a holiday calendar for your specific country - there might be information about memorable dates or historical events on September 19. Sometimes there are anniversaries that are only celebrated in certain places or communities.

Russia doesn't officially mark September 19 as a state holiday, but here's what's interesting - it's the birthday of Sergei Aksakov, a writer, and in some places they hold events dedicated to his work. Though in the world calendar, this date isn't really packed with major holidays.

If you want to always stay on top of what's being celebrated today, a cool life hack is to subscribe to a calendar of memorable dates for your region or just add notifications to your phone about local holidays and commemorative days. That way you won't miss anything interesting and can tell your friends over dinner something unexpected.
