OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 2103rd compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its Community Incubation Program. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.

This newest curation effort aims to encourage authors to post in appropriate communities even if those communities are not under the incubation program. This will also encourage users to explore more into the different communities in Hive.

OCD curators and community leaders will find posts from other niche communities and recommend them for an upvote. Unlike those communities in the incubation program where curation is focused, this curation initiative is spread out. This will help find undervalued posts from smaller communities that deserve support.

This will highlight both the author and the community where the post is located. This way, smaller niche communities can focus on growing their subscribers and increasing the engagements within their respective communities. A small boost goes a long way.

Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

I'm someone who was BORN FOR THE SEA! Since I was little, I've been told (and from what I remember) that I was "the little mermaid herself," because from the moment I arrive until they say "Time to go!", I'm stuck at the beach. My J.J. is also connected to the sea, so going out to enjoy a sunny day is always part of our best plan to spend our quality time, the way we like it.

What's up everyone?I hope you are all doing good today. Anyway ,today we are celebrating tatay Pablo's 84th birthday ,my father in-law.

After this piece, I present a musical periquera that is also part of our beloved Venezuelan folklore. I send you my warmest regards, full of love and blessings. Your friend @yoxibeth. Greetings and blessings to everyone today with a song from yesterday, “De Música Ligera”... by the great Latin American group Soda Stereo and the late Gustavo Cerati, one of those songs that reminds us of good times, it is a song from yesterday that never loses its value, it is like wine, the more time passes, the more it sticks in the ears of all kinds of audiences, from the oldest (elders) to the young people of today, a very popular song that is never missing at parties and the ...

Wishing all my dear friends a very good day! How are you doing? I hope you are all doing well. Beetroot is one of those vegetables that brings both beauty and nutrition to the plate. Its rich red color, earthy flavor, and natural sweetness have made it a favorite in many kitchens. Packed with iron, fiber, and essential vitamins, beetroot is known for boosting energy, aiding digestion, and adding a vibrant appeal to any meal. Preparing it as a curry or a mallum is a simple yet effective way to enjoy its healthy goodness. Let’s see how it tastes when prepared this way too.

Hello Hive and Hive Open Mic family, this is Fernando Benedetti. It's a pleasure to be with you on this new topic that inspires us to give love through hugs, those that are genuine, that come from the soul, and that connect the energy that flows from the heart. I was absent for a few days because I was on bed rest. The neuropathy I was diagnosed with last year recently took its toll on my workouts, and as a result, I had to stop training. However, I'm much better now and ready to rock this stage once again.

The song “Contigo aprendí” was written by the great Mexican composer Armando Manzanero, and it is one of those timeless boleros, because beyond having a beautiful melody, it speaks about what one discovers in true love. This iconic bolero was composed in the mid-20th century and, since then, it has been sung by artists such as Luis Miguel, Alejandro Fernández, and Andrea Bocelli.

Your proposal has prompted me to reflect on the daily cultivation of optimism. I face many challenges, but in the garden of my mind, anything is possible. I can always turn the soil, fertilise the ground and adapt to any circumstance. This garden is a home that requires constant attention and the support of positive friends to prevent the ‘pests’ of pessimism from invading it.

This week’s theme, “Hug Me”, instantly brought to my mind not just physical hugs, but those invisible ones—the ones that come from the soul. Sometimes a hug can be felt in a word, a song, a gesture, or simply in knowing that someone’s presence is with you, even if they’re not physically there.

Happy and blessed afternoon friends of Hive food, once again I come to surprise you with one of my delicious recipes to pamper our loved ones, this time it is about some "Chicken Rolls Cannelloni type" very healthy and delicious, I make this recipe a lot at home not only for its exquisite flavor but for how nutritious it is, you can make it with the protein of your preference, ground beef, shredded meat, vegetables like mushrooms, with any filling it is great.

Hi friends!! I’m back from the dead! 🤣 These past few weeks I’ve been super busy with university activities and responsibilities at home. On top of that, I got caught by a viral illness—fever, body aches, a cold, and all that fun stuff.

This concludes this batch's curation report. We would like to congratulate those who are featured and supported. Keep up the good work and continue to explore Hive Communities.
