I made 2 row bingos on my 7-1-23 card for the Fireworks Bingo Fest. Note that the batch of Eloquent Souls poems came out of the [community profile] sunshine_challenge. "That Light Bulb in Your House That Has a Short in It" is actually the starting point of a thread that [personal profile] dialecticdreamer is writing, but hers starts from the perspective of a different character.

B1 (Mad Science) -- "Thaw With Her Gentle Persuasion" (Polychrome Heroics)
I1 (Battery) -- "My Own Personal Battery" (Eloquent Souls)
N1 (Earth Shaker) -- "Waste That Nature Can't Digest" (Polychrome Heroics: Finn Family)
G1 (Amazing Bad Ass) -- "That Light Bulb in Your House That Has a Short in It" (Polychrome Heroics: Shiv)
O1 (Red) -- "To Be Gentle and Kind" (Eloquent Souls)

Row 4
B4 (Dragon Smoke) -- "Old Wounds That Refuse to Heal" (Eloquent Souls)
I4 (Corruption) -- "Corruption, Redemption" (Polychrome Heroics: Trichromatic Attractions)
N4 (Blankets / Tarps) -- "Come to a New Point of View" (Polychrome Heroics: Rutledge)
G4 (Shenanigans) -- "Fulfillment and Joy" (LIFC)
O4 (Tie-dye Clothes) -- "For Every Time I Thought of You" (Eloquent Souls)

N2 (Justified) -- "The Basis for the Joy of Love" (Polychrome Heroics: Finn Family)

Lots of folks want to see more activity on Dreamwidth. While researching community activities, I came across the idea of thematic meet and greet events. That seemed like something which might work here, given a membership of several hundred people and a new theme each month. So I made one for this month's theme. It gives people a place to meet folks with similar interests, and to squee about the current theme.

Here is the basic outline. Fill in as much or as little of it as you wish, depending on your interests as they relate to the Fireworks Bingo Fest.

The Fireworks Bingo Fest will run July 1-31. It focuses on fireworks, their composition, shows featuring them, and associated summer activities and motifs.
