You know, it was really too late to post this to a forum - and change behaviour of the community. Perhaps there should be a rolling community calendar of upcoming big world events that can be themes that folks can opt into - for example, Carnival, Easter, Eid, Diwali, Passover, Earth Day, Boxing Day, etc. (and should we add Silly Tuesdays)? Getting a community all having different interpretations of a theme for a singular post may be fun, especially if it's something we can anticipate and also something we can opt in, or opt out at the last minute.
