This week marks the end of the fifth full year of this concept and next week begins the sixth year! I don't know what to say other than, fuck, that's a long time!
Another weekend presents itself for our enjoyment although I guess if you're working rather than having two days off you'll not enjoy it as much as others. Either way, create the weekend you want to have, apply the right thoughts and attitudes to your life and make the most of it...you never know when you may not have the chance to do that.
It's been several years since I started the weekend-engagement topic concept and it's really cool to see a few people come back every week and join in. If you'd like to get involved with the #weekend-engagement topics as hosted in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community then read below, and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Get on it bro, gratuitous nudity is exactly what the blockchain needs!
Thaaazzz Right...
Great quote, I love Einstein!
As for the themes this time they are more than interesting, for example in the last one I would make a combination, I am sure of myself but reserved .... and the last but one is great and different!
I'll be here for sure. Have a great weekend.
I think there's a few good ones there, it's up to those answering to make them interesting though; I hope there's a few good ones to kick off the sixth year.
It would be great if there were several good posts to celebrate this new beginning of the year in the community... I always remember the first time I posted here... it was with a letter. It's been a nice journey.
That was a while ago!
12 March 2023... more than two years...
Wow, five years, that's great, and I'm also glad that you keep it so fresh in your mind. It's clear that you really enjoy this weekend event, and I know that you're very active in reviewing everyone's content. Good job, brother. I hope to participate. These thought-provoking topics always move me deeply! ✌️
It's a lot of topic ideas I've had to come, 260 weeks with 3-5 topics each week. Lucky my peanut-sized brain works now and then.
Hi, friends. One more time @galenkp give us very interesting topics to write about. Thank you very much. Have a happy weekend. I'll write you.
Ah here you are, haven't seen you around for a while.
Have a good weekend.
Oh! There are no "sex"y ones this week 😄
There's only one reason for the fourth one - procrastination, and for so many things in my life.
5 years is a very long time in Hive sphere and it's multiple topics every week. You're not reposting are you ? 🧐🤔🤨🤪
Well, I often worry people will think I'm predictable with the ribald topics, but maybe I'll add one in next week huh?
Yeah, five full years, 260 weeks...I just keep listing the same five topics each week, no one has noticed yet. 😶
Tut tut tut
You're very good at paraphrasing, good thing the abusers aren't learning from you
Well, maybe the abusers should learn from me and my...power up, non-AI original content, power up, non-AI original content, power up, non-AI original content, power up, non-AI original content, power up, non-AI original content, power up, non-AI original content. Seems like a good example.
Shower or bath? What's your preference and why?
Maybe someone will dare? 😀
All the topics are interesting, but, there are two of them that have me thinking about which one to participate in, because they have to do with my life.
Either way, I'm sure I will.
Have a nice weekend.
Cheers and best regards.
Excellent, I'll await your post.
Have a good weekend.
Congratulations,@galenkp, it has been very nourishing to share experiences, ideas, thoughts, lifestyle and life stories. Infinite gratitude for unpacking our publications all along this path, which is not over yet, then...how not to take advantage of every weekend engagement, to write and read the magic of human creation.🌹
Have a good weekend, hopefully you've got something good planned out. Thanks for being part of this concept.
Thankssss You 🌹🫂
I am actually so excited to be part of your journey with the #weekend-engagement topics and to have also been consistent with posting almost every week in this year. I love the questions for these week and i actually can write something on each and every one of them. Do have a nice weekend @galenkp
Good to have you around, hopefully you'll keep moving back and you'll keep enjoying it.
Have a nice weekend.
Yay!!! It's here again!
Another weekend to make for ourselves lol.
It's been indeed a long ride, we are wrapping up the fifth month of the year.
What a year so far so good!
And that was so fast if you ask me.
How are you doing over there? I hope your old bones aren't aching too much? And the family is doing just fine.
Well, my old bones seem to be holding up pretty well so far and they're looking forward to carrying the rest of me forward into the weekend. I'm pretty happy with that, I mean it's not easy being a 137 year old but I have to say, I'm still fucken rockin' it like I did when I was 99.
That's good to hear!
Sure it's not easy and I am just imagining what you look like in that age lol.
Here's a video of myself I just took.
🤣😅😂😅🤣😳
I wondered if you'd see this. 😋
Not cool 😏🤣
Definitely shy and reserved! Unless you add a bit of whiskey, then I am probably more outgoing. Despite having that little spat with cancer, I don't think that has been my biggest health issue. I'd say my constant battle with being overweight is the big one for me.
Yep, I think a lot struggle with that health issue.
There's a guy at work, type 2 diabetic...never does finger prick tests, eats whatever he likes, is morbidly obese...what could go wrong? Well, lots!
It's not easy to do the right thing, but it's rather important, one is dead for a long time when it happens.
I have a friend like that too. He isn't morbidly obese, but he has diabetes and he doesn't keep up on it like he should. Then he has all kinds of other health issues and wonders why. He's actually the reason I made a commitment to start getting up at 4 AM and working out most weekday mornings several years ago.
Yeah, seeing that occur in others is a good motivator usually.
Already 5 years? Time flies!
Congratulations on keeping up this concept around!
Yep, I didn't think it'd last a month but people kept turning up.
5 years of making people think a little further and have a deeper look into their selves (assuming that the questions where the same style back then). That's a huge thing in these days, looking at the current state of society and the direction it's heading. The look in the mirror has become too literal, and keeping the metaphor alive is something important. I bet that you had quite the impact on many people in those years, not with a big bang, but like drops of water. Thank you for that. I certainly enjoy this very much.
It's a long time for sure and it can be difficult to keep the topics relevant and interesting.
I sometimes throw a bit of a stupid one in there just for my own enjoyment never expecting people to answer it but sure enough people do. So I guess people see what they want to in it and that's fine by me, it's about enjoyment, pushing limits and people's paradigms.
I'm hope you continue to enjoy the concept.
Haven't seen any stupid ones yet. Weird ones, yes, those who make you step out of your comfort zone, but I guess that's kind of the idea. Like the one about oral sex or penetration, that was an unexpected one, nothing one discusses in public (at least not in the cultures that I'm aware of). But that, too, causes a reaction which tells something about the person.
And yes, I imagine that it's hard to keep that up for 5 years. Do you try not to repeat any questions? That would be even harder.
Repeating topics is not something I do although after five years some may be similar as I simply don't recall what every topic has been each week over that period.
Wow. That makes it even more impressive, I mean 5 topics or more each week. Kudos!
Back in the day it was an engagement concept only. I'd set a topic and people would comment on the pat. I remember getting 1,000+ comments each week on many occasions and usually several hundred at least. It was difficult to keep up with. I ended up reverting to topics and asking people to post in the community about them which is a little easier for me.
Again - Wow! I had heard that Hive was a lot busier back in the days, but more than 1k comments? Even several hundred... Was it just you, or did you have some mods?
Oh, that reminds me: Shall we post the link of our post here as a comment, or just publish in the community to not clog this post?
I could write a book on point 1 nightmare, literally, but well that's pretty personal and it connects to point 2 too... Other points are very interesting too and I could use them, but Monday is national holiday, so probably I will not make it for the deadline and will have to skip this round.
5 years... 5 different topics per week, I don't know how you can keep up with it, I don't have that much creativity
No worries, there's always next week so I'll see you next weekend. Have a good long weekend.
Thanks, you too!
-5h for me still 😭
Ah yeah, bloody Friday takes too long to end sometimes. I'm done, sitting down watching F1 practice one live from Spain right now. Coffee, snacks...it's a good way to spend Friday evening.
A relaxing evening, charging for the weekend, my father used to watch always f1 too
Can you sleep after taking the coffee?
I hopefully should be able to do some gaming this evening
Yeah, I have a coffee every night around 8-10pm. I go to bed around 11:30-12:00pm and seen to sleep ok. I'm up at 5-6am usually so at night am pretty tired after a long day.
Gaming? Like Monopoly?
That's good, I know people who would just stand asleep on the bed, we got similar times tough, I do 11pm-6am
Oh no, I wish I could play monopoly or risko and such but in the evening after dinner I'm alone, kid sleep, wife sleep early after work, so I just play some video games to relax a bit
Me and my mother have the same mental illness. But it shows itself in a different ways. I don't see or hear any voices. But for me interacting with people is hard. Sometimes I get very nervous when I need to make a phone call. I don't have real friends. My mother is more talkative than me. But she one time went to work with travel backpack and thought that she brought a head in it. The other time when I was small she told me to throw sugar(?) on the carpet. I think she believed that this should somehow safe lost souls or some religious reason like that...That mental illness is also one of the reasons why I don't want to have kids. Since both me and my mother have it I assume that my kids would have it as well.
Well, that seems challenging indeed. Maybe you'd choose another topic instead? Anyway, I hope you have a decent weekend.
Yes I think that I will post about another topic. Thank you. Good weekend to you as well.

The topics for the weekend are interesting to get involve and I just publish mine.
Ok, no worries.
It's amazing how #weekend-engagement has become its own community within the community; it's now a culture.
For me, it's the only dynamic I participate in week after week. Thank you for always bringing interesting topics
Incredible, six years already!!! time flies!
I think you are one of the rare administrators on this platform who allows a person to fully express what he/she has experienced in the course of his/her life and instills the courage to talk about anything he/she wants without hesitation. Congratulations. The topics are very well chosen. I will try to participate, have a good weekend.
I love taking baths, but they are impractical for every day use. So I take about 100 showers for every bath I take :)
Bath and showers are cool, but I really like sauna, of course you have to follow it up with a shower ;)

Turned out a little longer this time. Didn't expect that, but wasn't to interrupt the flow either - and already tried to cut some parts.
