OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 236th 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:

"City of death", "city of poison", "city of the dead" - such names were often written in the press when the city of Chapaevsk was mentioned. The culprit for this name was "Plant No. 102" - a closed chemical production. This is one of the few places on the territory of the former USSR, where thousands of tons of deadly chemical warfare agents - mustard gas, lewisite, phosgene and others - were produced for decades.

As much as I love the plantbased cooking challenges, I've really got to watch the low to no budget and so am only able to spend when I really need to buy food to cook, plus it's only me I'm cooking for (Thank Dog I've got a freezer...), but luckily, this week is one of those days that I needed to cook something fresh and it really is fresh and so very healthy.

That created a tremendous curiosity in me and today I woke up thinking where do we go after death Will it be like the church says that we get buried and rest or will it be that we transcend to another better place, maybe with a more advanced level of consciousness, maybe we don't feel physical pain anymore, but maybe we can touch things...

In the afternoon we decided to take a walk in the Deliblatska peščara forest after a long time ... we travel to the village of Šušara which is on the edge of the forest ... I leave my car there and go to the depths of the forest ... There are rare passers-by, mostly alone .. .. The day is warm, real summer .... and real shock because until three days ago it was cold and we were wearing jackets ...

Miguel... Taciturn, loving and tough at the same time, strong as an old oak tree, he used to get up at dawn when the first ray of sunlight touched his face through the openings of the bitter cane roof in the caney where, on nights like this one, when he returned tired from riding, he would lie on his noble campechana and without being able to count the stars, he would travel to the dream world until the arrival of dawn.

Today on super Sunday, the weather in our town is warm. Today I come with a new snack. That snack is a kind of Myanmar food. This dish is a combination of jaggery and Glutinous rice. Myanmar Jaggery sweet rice cake is one of my favorite snacks. This snack is also called golden rice. Most Myanmar people also like Myanmar sweet rice cake. This snack is easy to make. And the taste is sweet and very good to eat. Burmese people consider this snack to be delicious and nutritious. Let me tell you about the ingredients needed to make Myanmar Jaggery Sweet Rice Cake.

My fascination of writing engulfed me at a very young age (I was 9 years old). I was innocent back then when I had found myself writing a story in a piece of paper under the thin kalachuchi tree. After many times of failure to create a good story, I stopped writing. I was not a goal-oriented when I was a kid and no one trains me to become such person. Back then, it was difficult for me to find a mentor and I was not courageous enough to ask someone to teach me improve my writing skill. Unfortunately, I gave up.

The chokeberry in my garden does not occupy the most central place. When I started building a house, I planted 2 bushes of blackberries on the very edge of the garden plot. And next to the house there was already a large bush of chokeberry. The bush gave little harvest, so I decided to remove it and plant an apple tree in its place. But I realized that the bush has very large roots and I did not want to fight with them. So I left them in the hope that in a couple of years the roots will die. But it so happened that new shoots appeared, which began to give a good harvest, and I decided to leave the bush to grow further.

Pancit is one of the all time favorite of Filipinos. It can be present in any occasions. It is one of my favorite dish, too!

Today I gonna share to you the pancit I cooked. It is a combination of three different pancit noodles. 😊 I cook it using firewoods. 😊

Paradise is a state of mind, though having a suitable natural environment does help. However, even in a healthy supportive natural environment, one’s own mind can still get in the way and block our perception of reality as being paradise. Nevertheless, if we immerse ourselves in a nurturing natural environment and simultaneously remove any negative influences on our mind, we can tap in to the concept of being in paradise or being in bliss.

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.
