OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 2156th 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:

My childhood was never to be playing and playing, since the children who are in music school do not have those freedoms, maybe in the scholarship if you play for a while but you have to study and have a discipline to be good at what you do since you learn a totally unknown language. And from that moment when I discovered the composition, a world was opened up full of creativity and a way to vent and have fun at the same time and although despite the fact that sometimes I have certain blockages it has been with me for a very long time.

The one who disappointed me was Lando. He seemed very passive on the track, with a pace that was quite different from the rest, so he had to settle for fourth place, while Piastri was second and Max Verstappen took the top spot on the podium. This result left the field wide open for the final race, and the situation couldn't have been worse for Lando, as Kimi Antonelli made a mistake while battling with the British McLaren driver, allowing the championship leader to gain a position. This last situation brought criticism for the young Mercedes driver, as Max was told that Kimi let Norris pass, when this was not true, especially as they were fighting for the last step on the podium. The safety car on lap 10 changed everything, turning the race around, which had looked boring and was a little more interesting than I thought at first.

Last week, one of my part time gigs, a private language teaching school, organized a Christmas illumination "scavenger hunt" for the students. I'd never done a "scavenger hunt" before, and it sounded a bit ominous - would we have to hide things in the bushes for the students to find? Wouldn't that be a bit of a nuisance for the teachers, the students, and the crowds of illumination-seekers all getting in each other's way? I had visions of crowds of people tripping over our students as they grovelled among the roots of trees and bushes hunting for hidden gifts.

Among the most basic offerings in pastry is working with "manjar blanco" or boiled condensed milk, as we know it here. The combination with sponge cake is very pleasant, but since it's the most common way to start, it's what proliferates the most. If someone who acquires the materials for free or at low cost launches their product cheaper, there we have not the possibility of losing, but of advancing more slowly.

While the song is about "a different world," I find the parallel with our own world striking, a world full of simple, small, yet undeniably magical things that allow us to appreciate life in all its nuances and colors. Seeking that distinction, I believe, is connected to building that inner universe, enriched by our capacity to value and be grateful for what we have.

As a child, my mother would take me to the theater, and I enjoyed the Polish groups and soloists who came to sing in my country. There I saw the dances and vibrant stage presence of Mazowsze, this famous folk group founded in 1948 with the aim of showcasing to the world the artistic traditions and folklore of the dances and songs of the Mazovian countryside, also called Mazowsze.

Today we bid farewell to November and welcome the last month of the year, a month that signifies family unity and celebration. I hope that this month brings happiness, prosperity, peace, and joy to each of you in the company of your loved ones, always with the help of Almighty God. Welcome to my blog!

Say hi to our baby, Marga. I really miss Marga she’s that kind of dog I truly loved. You know, whenever I arrive home after being out, she never stops wagging her tail unless I pet her. And when I do, she would immediately turn around so I could scratch her back.

It's already in the last week of the month and unfortunately our cash allowance didn't was almost spent. This sudden price hike on everything was to blame.

Yesterday, I was thinking about the incredible psychological defense mechanisms that we Venezuelans have developed to survive prolonged periods of uncertainty and collective stress. Those “mental shields” we use—the amount of psychiatric analysis this will bring in the future is going to be impressive! I assure you.

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.
