OCD's support is expanding!
Hello everyone! This is the 2110th 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.
How this Works
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:

Hello friends and Hivers. It's been a while since I flexed on some ice cream. I'm feeling happy and excited about the days ahead. So today I was craving ice cream and I took care of it!

For this jam, I started with a pre-worked acoustic guitar riff, played with a pick to give it a crisp and articulate feel. Once the foundation was set, I brought in my looper and layered a bed of synth textures—warm bass, atmospheric keys, and subtle percussive elements. The combination creates a meditative soundscape that balances organic guitar tones with lush electronic ambiance.

I first heard this song in two very different but equally special settings: at family gatherings, listening to my dad sing it with such feeling, and later in the voice of Luis Miguel, who included it on his 1997 album Romances. From then on, I was inspired to learn some chords of this style of bolero that inspires me so much and that I want to perform for all of you today. I hope you enjoy my version as much as I enjoyed preparing this little piece of nostalgia and love in the form of music.

>These festivities last a week, and since I've lived here for seven years, I've attended every one of them. The festivities consist of celebrating traditions, cultural events, gastronomy, and the history of the municipality with free events for the whole family, which are sponsored by the mayor's office. These events have an amazing security presence, as the municipality has been classified as “the safest in Colombia,” considering that its population is currently almost 100,000 and that it is the smallest municipality in the country.

With that in mind, the story begins with Galinda (played by Ariana Grande) reminiscing about how she met Elphaba (played by Cynthia Erivo), how their lives intertwined, and how they forged a friendship. From this narration, the story reveals the contrasts between both young women.

I see fans as canvases, canvases on which works of art can be captured, not always, but when I see them I am amazed. They are also a breath of fresh air in the intense heat.

For us Cubans, this is a very spiritual place. That's why every year, many artists go (or try to go... I haven't been in two years) and sing songs, read poetry, tell stories, tell anecdotes, and pay tribute to Martí.

Caracas is a beautiful city, but although it may seem incredible, it hides many facets that change radically depending on the angle from which they are viewed. This capital city is torn between large commercial areas and multiple residential areas, where social classes seem to be clearly defined, but at the same time everything blends together in the same urban dynamic. Architecture and nature compete with each other, while the old and the new are locked in a constant struggle between resilience and power.

Since late June, I’ve been writing articles about Hive.blog on note, a Japanese platform where creators share blog posts, essays, and stories on diverse topics, ranging from personal experiences to professional insights, often fostering deep community engagement.

The bracelet I brought today is inspired by my grandchildren, jet is a material extracted from coal, it is associated with wood. Many times we can find imitations of this made with plastic, if we want to be sure that it is original jet we can rub it with something and this should leave a dark coloration, we can also bite it in a corner, it should splinter a little.
