OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 750th 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 wanted to visit the Kastel in Vlajkovac, which is slowly closing down.

No one showed up and took it upon himself to restore it.... Every time I come, one part has collapsed..
It's slowly disappearing... I went in to take a look, although it's risky, maybe something will fall...

Without becoming obese,when I turned 13 I told my mother that I wanted to lose weight, so at the next appointment with my family doctor, I made the comment and she offered me her help. She gave me a diet according to my age and detailed each step to follow. With my mother's support and my spirits soaring, we went to the supermarket to buy everything related to my diet in order to fully comply with the diet and become slim, like the rest of my family.

I grew up without mentioning those terms in the family nucleus, but I never lost my curiosity, on the contrary, it grew even more like everything forbidden... it always becomes an extremely interesting topic. So when I was a teenager I started my investigative operation about sexuality and everything that was part of it. The first visual contact was my book on childcare, a subject that we saw in the 3rd year of the CBC, and it dealt with motherhood, sexual organs, menstruation, everything that had to do with sexual education. You can imagine what they thought in my house about that subject, it was a depravity.

Do I like it? Of course I do! Although the truth is that I'm pretty scary for this kind of genre, but let's say that what I have of fearful, I have of masochistic because I simply can't stop watching movies or reading horror stories, even if it ends up costing me several nights in a row without being able to sleep a wink. My taste for the horror genre came at an early age, when my grandfather told me very interesting horror stories and instead of running away or asking him to tell me another nice and beautiful story, I ended up asking him to tell me another even more terrifying one. From that moment on, my taste for this genre began to intensify until it became my favorite.

After flying DJI camera drones for a few months now I thought I’d try my hand at some FPV flying but after a trawl around on the internet, I reached the conclusion that it was difficult and going from expensive to bloody extortionate. A digital DJI FPV setup will set you back well over £1000 for the drone, controller, and goggles. Building your own option is a minefield of options and setup still not cheap even going down the analog route. So to be honest I had given up when I found the BETAFPV Cetus Pro kit.

With my mate, Stace, in town we picked a parkrun that was new for her, somewhere pretty, that was also on Brad's P-Index list. (For the uninitiated, the P-Index is an unofficial parkrun challenge that focuses around you doing repeats of a certain number of parkruns). 🏃🏃‍♀️🏃‍♂️

The weather stayed mostly dry for us 👍 It was drizzling throughout the parkrun briefing (which always makes me wish I was doing the briefing so I could do it at double speed!) but once we got running it was fine.

The bell rang for the first graders of primary school today. A sweet excitement gripped those little little ones who were going to be separated from their families for the first time. They will experience the stress of encountering a different life, new friendships, and a new environment. Although our children learn quickly to adapt to innovations, seeing different aspects of life may have created a little anxiety instead of excitement. Parents have a big role to play in solving these anxieties in our young children.

Today with much love and joy sharing for you again another of my traditional crafts, a beautiful clay doll. It is a material similar to stoneware, like sandy, that they gave me, that potters use to make bricks, also to make utilitarian pieces, this clay is very good. You wanted so much to make the doll, to show you, it was a bit rustic, due to the time of the material used, then I send it to bake and apply paint to highlight its beauty, although there are people who like to show off the pieces naturally . These dolls are very decorative, easy and cheap to make and at the same time they can be given as a gift, they can also be used as souvenirs and decorate any space in our home.

The Family Sewing Machine has a space to place the thread to be used, but it is for a small thread. Those of us who sew a lot know that there are thread colors that we need to have in their larger presentation so that it can last us longer, and since the Sewing Machine does not have a space for large thread cones, well, we have to place them in a cup or a container that we improvise. I have been using for years one that I had made with a soda container that I cut and decorated with some flowers, which you can see below:

The kids resumed classes in January after a two week break for Christmas and from then on we only stopped in July so both they and we ended up exhausted and dreaming about the school break that starts in mid-July and ends in mid-September.

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.
