OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 1884th 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:

This song brings back a lot of memories of when in my beloved Venezuela the rooster masses were given to announce Christmas and many times I participated with a choir of children that I had instructed in a small town called 23 de Enero which is located between the state of Merida and the state of Zulia. This melody brings back beautiful memories to me and I hope it also evokes beautiful memories for some of you.

I am thankful that I've gotten through it, not that I doubted I would but there were certainly times when I would have thought I would've gone nuts with how hectic things were getting. Thankfully this iteration of monochrome Monday isn't one where I am deep in the abyss of negative thoughts, and that's an important thing.

We tend to get caught up sometimes in the swirling that can happen when things are going sideways with various things in life. I think it's easy to do because when things are going sideways, we have to spend far more mental energy and focus on figuring out how we get things back on track.

Today I would like to share with you my honest opinion about the rumor that is running around about the actor that is supposedly being considered to play Severus Snape in the new HBO Harry Potter series, I know that opinions are divided and that even as things stand today it is difficult to issue an opinion without risk of misinterpretation, but I still want to risk saying what I think about this rumor and how I think it could affect fan and audience support

Sans chocolates.

When Little Man started thinking about the smores, he couldn't forget about it. I tried to delay him to say we don't have the grill and he needed to borrow from my aunt. Lol.

Then suddenly, I found him unboxing the stuff we bought for Christmas, looking for the marshmallows. He also found the solution to the "no-barbecue-stick problem", which is to just use forks. So, it was apparent that he won't stand down.

There are musicians with whom you can spend hours and hours playing, and one of them is my brother Yorman Gota, one of the guitarists of the Henry Rubio Orchestra and an extraordinary musician, simply everything flows when you walk with artists of this level

ENGLISH VERSION

My #HiveDiy friends, nice to share with you again, how beautiful it is to create truth. ❤️

This is something I've been learning little by little, whether it's for hobby, to keep my mind busy, definitely, it's the best activity one can do, like I said, you keep yourself busy, inventing, creating, even looking for inspiration, for what you want to create.

Thinking a bit about the diadem initiative ,I really didn't know how to participate, in fact, my friend @gelart, told me she had ideas on how to make it, but I already mentioned, I like to create, so I gave myself to this task, to see what I could come up with, something simple, practical, without much protocol, as I like it hahaha...😄

Greetings Daily Blog community! This is my first contribution to this interesting community that I found by pure chance and I am really excited to have stumbled upon it since ever since I discovered Hive I have been interested in turning it into a kind of diary to share my teaching and research activities at the university. And it has been in this community where I feel that I can share my memories and anecdotes in Hive, in this context I want to share my first photoblog of December with the whole process of putting up our Christmas tree and then decorating it, so let's get started!

Greetings, dear friends of the community and black and white lovers, I hope everyone is feeling great. As every beginning of the week, I want to start sharing with you some pictures of a freestyle event, as I always enjoy taking portraits in this kind of events because of the amount of expressions and moments you can capture, I hope you enjoy them.

It's still very cold, dry, and the temperature is below zero these days. However, all the snow has melted for now, which is typical December weather in my area. It's nice not to have packed snow because I don’t need to do any shoveling.

The outside temperature is super cold, and I feel like my whole body is freezing, as if I’m inside a big freezer. When I worked at a convenience store as a student, I used to enjoy going into the fridge to stock the beverages. It was a refreshing moment. The inside of the big fridge at the convenience store was pretty comfortable, especially in the summer when it was hot. Even in winter, it felt pleasant because of the dryness caused by the heat pump.

A million blessings is a song that was produced recently by star boy Wizkid from Nigeria in his newest album Morayo. I have enjoyed most of his song right from day one and so far I have become a real fan of his music and lifestyle, the song I'm presenting happens to be one of my favorite from the album because he talked about obstacles that a man has to be strong in other to face them using his self as an example and he also talked about the outcome of what will be your last blessing if you're able to withstand the challenges of life.

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.
