OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 2227th 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:

Each sticker album represents a different stage of my life—the first was from my childhood, then my teenage years, and now as an adult, I still enjoy them. Besides that, each of those albums reminds me of trading stickers, the races to get the ones I was missing, the conversations between matches about who would be the world champion, and the greatest thrill of all—when I managed to complete any national team in the album. The great thing about that time was that there was always laughter, moments of stress when I couldn’t get the card I needed, and also the greatest joy when I stuck in the last one and closed the album, completely full.

As always, I'm eager to participate in this initiative because I love all the ones in this community, and this one is no exception. I'll be very honest with you; I'm not going to say I'm a huge World Cup fan because I'm not. I probably would be if my country (Venezuela) were participating. Anyway, I remember that in previous years I was more of a regular at watching at least a few matches. Since my country wasn't participating, I always supported the closest countries: Colombia, Brazil, and Argentina. Let's just say those have always been my three favorites, but especially Brazil.

I am Diego López (Hive account@encuentro) on #hive and #3speak. Today I share with you with much love a song that inspires me: "Llanero siente y lamento", composed by Ángel Ávila. This track speaks with truth about the passion we feel for the plains, our customs, and that special muse that accompanies the llanero man. It is a song that touches the heart and reminds us of the value of our roots.

Having sampled the quality of what they offered, I agreed to work with her, asking her to provide a varied menu for the number of people working on the project during a week when the whole team would be based at a television studio. Once the menu and quote had been submitted, the executive producer accepted her proposal and we decided to hire her, mainly because my reference for her was her professional reliability.

If I have bad days, days with anxiety and worry... It's because living in a complicated country and a congested world means there are gray days. Well, generally speaking, life itself always brings uncomfortable moments; that shows us that we are alive and that we must fight.

Living in peace is not about not having problems; it's about knowing how to walk despite them; it's about extracting the good and the learning from every situation, every relationship, and every person we meet along the way.

It has always been said that, to a large extent, the social history — rather than the political one — of Cuba in recent years must be found in cinema. I would extend this line of thought to art in general. For example, manifestations such as theater or music also fit into the picture. In the latter case, we have bands like Los Van Van and NG La Banda, where fallen pillars such as Juan Formell and José Luis Cortés stood out as exceptional social chroniclers through their compositions.

Hello friends of Fudis, how are you? I hope you are all well and can do beautiful activities as usual. Today I am at home alone because my child and mother have gone to the PANTE BAHAGIA tourist spot with my cousin's school bus group. I have been lying down at home because there are no activities today. I also have a day off from work, the plan is to just rest at home today, while my husband works and does not have a day off at all.

On the other hand, in very stressful conflict situations, I have heard people with very little professional preparation or with visibly low intelligence coefficients say: "I'm going to hang myself, but before I hang myself, I'm going to hang a few people first." Which makes it clear that this is not the first solution for the problem in which they are stuck or the one they are going through.

I had read a post here that made me reflect on this. But I didn't write anything about it, mainly due to lack of time. Until today, when I saw a post on Threads by a woman who was talking about how grandparents stopped being grandparents, just as the family in general stopped being a support network.

Greetings, friends of this beloved community! As always, I wish you all the best in your lives and projects. It's Saturday, and each of us has different plans. Some of us are stressed about university, others are eagerly awaiting the World Cup to see their favorite teams play, and still others are off to work. So today, I'm bringing you an idea for a project you can do at home.

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.
