OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1698th 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:

In these days where the rain does not want to leave us a little truce, and we need to go out almost daily to run errands, even more those who work outside the house, who are forced to go out almost all week, it is difficult not to receive a dose of downpour in our bodies, both on the way there and on the way back, and colds and flus are becoming present, in some cases even bronchitis.

It's not surprising that I'm here in this community to show you food, but it is strange that it's something made by me HAHAHA in this post I'll show you a recipe for Bbq chicken wings with white rice that I made 👌 finger licking good (I didn't say it, my boyfriend said it and he's more straight than Ramsay Gordon, I assure you).

Greetings dear friends of the @familyfriends community, I hope you are doing well and enjoying an excellent week. I am with you this time to share with you my joy for the hundred years of life of my dear mother who turned 100 years old last July 20 and, although she did not want celebrations, we made a small family reunion between children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren, after all, not every day you have a hundred years of life.

For some time I was thinking about what to post in this interesting community, but I had not come up with something really worthwhile, however, I could see that an initiative arose for the month of July which is precisely to show what you will see below in this post. So I am pleased to share with you my collection of t-shirts which are mostly black and rock or heavy metal, although I also have others related to other niches or themes.

The black color is the one that prevails in my t-shirts because it is my favorite since always, this color is also characteristic in the world of rock, so all the ones I have related to the music I like fit me like a glove. In the following pictures you will see t-shirts of classic bands like Pink Floyd, The Rolling Stones, AC/DC and Guns n' Roses, although I also have shirts of two bands that are perhaps less known, I am referring to the American Dream Theater and the Spanish Mago de Oz.

Summer brings many trips to the beach, I must admit I love the sea and the sun, but I think I already knew that.

But it seems that now I am addicted to collecting rocks, not just any rock but one that carries messages, I love messages.

Specifically, I'm referring to sad songs. I'm one of those who has no problem listening to them and I like to have them at specific times. But when one of these versions comes along that make that sad song even sadder, they are.... they're... they're like... I still don't have a comparison. So, I'm asking you to please join me in navigating through three of these songs that I think did an excellent job. Just when you thought they couldn't sound any sadder, BOOM! Along comes this version.

Hi, foodies in the Hive!

Hope you're doing great ❤️ After some hard working days, I can finally show you my recipe for fish in cream sauce, which is such a versatile dish. You'll see about this.

Post Partum, I've been hearing about this word from someone who gave birth. Read a lot of stories on how they suffered, overcame and others who fell from depression gave up. When I was pregnant, I was pretty much sure I won't be having any issues with regards to this. Well I am a strong independent woman as I believe I am. Yet Definitely I am wrong.

These past weeks, I seldom write a blog as most of the time I am exhausted. My baby was awake in the wee hours so I am always sleep deprived. Free time during the day, I chose to rest as I felt like I'm passing out due to extreme tiredness.

If right now I went back to the year 2017 I would surely be in my room jumping and singing at the top of my voice One D songs because I was a big fan of the band even though they were no longer making music together, but well maybe you wonder why this song? While this young band was characterized by Pop - Rock music, this song is the opposite is a softer ballad but with a very nice message to love couple, it is also worth mentioning that this song was composed by the renowned singer and songwriter Ed Sheeran and undoubtedly was a success since it came out.

I have tried various discount ice cream flavours this year. For me, 1.80 euros for a scoop of ice cream in the ice cream parlour just seems too expensive. I even paid 6.50 euros for a spaghetti ice cream to go - that's really excessive. In comparison, I can go to the outdoor pool for 4 euros and get an ice cream or a portion of fries for 2.50 euros at the swimming pool. In this case, I prefer the cheaper option, which is why I decided to give the discounter ice cream a try.’

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.
