OCD's support is expanding!
Hello everyone! This is the 2149th 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:

The legal details must have taken several months; all communication was by letter, and even airmail took a minimum of 15 days for delivery. A month between proposal and response. On both sides of the Atlantic, the legal procedures were completed, and finally, my aunt married my father. All this happened before my mother's eyes, who, although she knew the details, was somewhat suspicious. Eight years of courtship, a certain reputation as a Casanova, and a certain flamboyance, according to friends, made my mother attend the ceremony with a certain unease.

Before the quake happened, Math Month had already started, from the opening on September 15 up to the schedule culmination on October 2. Unfortunately, the earthquake struck just few days before our main event. We had already hosted several mini activities, and this blog is all about the mini events we were able to enjoy before everything was interrupted by the quake.

I had to go to the High-Performance Sports Initiation School to attend several meetings, almost none of which interested me and with no hope of bringing any solutions to real difficulties that hinder the proper training of athletes. But that's how we are: we hold meetings to coordinate future meetings that deal with what was coordinated in the previous one, and from which only ridiculous amounts of paperwork remain that no one reads.

I chose this song because it carries a warm, timeless message about love and appreciation—something many of us connect with deeply. Its melody is calm, expressive, and always a joy to sing, so I decided to bring my own feel to it for this week’s theme.

It was a cold, spring afternoon, unusual for me, as I've always thought spring wasn't as cold as winter; however, this year in particular, the temperature has been very changeable and tending towards the cold. I decided to make some delicious lentils with Cantimpalos chorizo for lunch. I'm sure you'll want to make it, as it's very easy to prepare and absolutely delicious. Let's get down to business...

Hello, friends of the world. Hello, friends of Hive. Today is Tuesday again and, as everyone knows, it's the perfect day to listen to and share good music on this platform. Today, like every previous week, I bring you the music of my favorite female singers. On this occasion, I want to share the music of an incredible girl—talented, creative, beautiful, sharp, and to be honest, sometimes it’s hard to find all these virtues in one person—so without a doubt, I bring you a gem, a Spanish gem who has been described as a "typical pop star," as she is very versatile and experiments with different genres. Born on the outskirts of Barcelona and better known as La Rosalía.

The human world is based on hypotheses, because we know nothing about life or death. Even less about love and heartbreak. The latter seems simple, but at the same time complex; they are contradictory feelings. There are no recipes for love to last forever and live happily ever after. I don't know where this phrase came from, I don't think even my grandmother believed it. One day people love each other and the next they hate each other to death, but anyway, the dilemma doesn't end there.

Ciaos collectors, it is me again. These days I got a bit distant from blogs in general, so it feels like a whole eternity and not just a week since I posted the blog about vinyls. I want to add something else that I think is fitting to be part of this community. Since I was already at home last week I remembered to take photos of my small collection of specific drawings from elementary school, so around 2011 and 2012, maybe even the start of high school. It was not that long ago, but it feels like at least three decades and not just one and a few years more.

When I arrived at #hive a little over a year ago, I didn't understand the impact it would have on my life, how much it would transform and educate my photographic vision. Today I can say that there is a before and after. The contribution it has made to my life is fundamental in my preparation as a street photographer. It has been a silent teacher, guiding me and teaching me to manage my emotions by expressing them in photographs.

Having so many musical influences, I feel it is a necessity to express all those extravagant ideas that my mind generates. The catch of being "Avant-garde" or "Experimental" is that many people are not going to like your work, and that is normal. True artists are not those who can please everyone, but those who can remain true to themselves even if the world does not want them. This honestly is not for everyone; having conviction in your creations despite the rest of the world ignoring them is not easy
