OCD's support is expanding!

Hello everyone! This is the 617th 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:

Today I'm back in these parts to unbox a BLACK&DECKER® blender that I recently acquired and thus complete what I think I need in my new kitchen. Although there are other little things that I don't know if I really need, but I want to have in my kitchen. I will tell you later, meanwhile I keep reading the appliance reviews that are made in this wonderful community to see what I want to crave for :)

The International LGTBIQA+ Pride Day, I used to know it as Gay Pride Day, which coincidentally is celebrated on June 28, on my birthday, as well as the day of the theater. In commemoration of this I will tell you a cute story that dwells in my heart because, although I am straight, I feel a deep sincere love for a man who is not and for that reason and for all my loved ones proud of their sexuality, I dare to talk about my relationship with him.

Until recently, I had an incredible collection of recipe books that I cherished, but when I planned to emigrate, I had to get rid of it. At first, I was a little hurt, but then I thought that they were a few books that I had read very little, so when I sold them, I thought it would be a good option for someone else to enjoy them. It's not that I don't appreciate recipe books, but nowadays, thanks to the magic of the internet, I look up the recipe I need to make, and that's it.

Number one: It bugs me to be sick! I've always tried to keep myself as healthy as possible even more so being a mom and having to do most things around the house. Yes, hubby helps A LOT, but there's things that either I like to do myself, or he's not that comfortable doing, or does not know how to handle like I do, cause I'm a bit of a perfectionist, which also bugs me sometimes! So, not being able to bring my A game to what I Need to do is the main thing bugging me at this moment. Not having the energy to deal with everyday life is the worst feeling, I get really frustrated by that, even though I know it only makes my health worse.

Welcome to my new post. How's everything? I hope all goes well. These days, I teach the children in my teachers' dormitory almost every week from Monday to Friday. That's why I haven't shared about papercraft, clay art and DIY for a long time. And I have not talked about the plants my father planted in my yard for a long time. Today I returned home early. So I spent some of my evening time in the small garden.

I have always been a person who has taken very seriously the exercise of my right to vote, because I not only see it as a right, but also as a duty, even though in the countries where I can exercise it there is no penalty if I do not do it, for me it is a moral issue and it makes me feel better. So, as I have dual nationality since my grandparents were Colombian I went to Colombia to vote in the presidential elections, I will tell you a little about this experience.

It was my dad's birthday two weekends ago. Me and my mum wanted to treat him some nice food on this special day. However, my dad doesn't like to splurge on food nor doesn't like people to spend on him, so it took us quite a while to persuade him 😅.

I have been using herbal medicine for many years now. It is always the first choice for me and my girls, if we need help with healing. One of the first things I noticed when I moved to the land, that I currently live on, is that there was a huge amount of Mullein growing here.

Greetings to all, I hope everyone is doing well. Today I share a little of the process I carried out to make a stand for headphones from recycled material.

She arrived a few days ago asking me if I could help her restore some earrings, since one of them was broken and she is very fond of those earrings, although they are quite simple, because my uncle gave them to her together with a very pretty chain.

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.
