OCD's support is expanding!
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Hello everyone! This is the 550th compilation post of OCD's latest curation efforts. It has been known that OCD has been supporting leading niche communities under its <b><a href="https://peakd.com/hive-174578/@ocd/ocd-communities-incubation-program-update-72">Community Incubation Program</a></b>. However, there are still a lot of other niche communities not supported by OCD. This curation initiative will help in supporting those communities.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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. 
</div>

<h4>How this Works</h4>

<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
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.
</div>
<br>
<div class="text-justify">
Speaking of boost, here are the curated posts for this batch:

<blockquote>I have a huge admiration for performers each time I set my eyes on them. The confidence, the excellence in display and the amazing feeling they pass on to the audience. I always wonder "do they ever feel nervous?" Afraid? Whatever it is they do and how they do it, I believe there's a special grace in them for that which I do not have.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>If you´re the one creating the drama, it basically means you have difficulty accepting that life is a series of unforeseen circumstances that you have to deal with if you like it or not.
If you´re the one creating the drama, you can´t deal with the series of events and you are looking for a cause outside of yourself. Something is blocking you to accept life for the pile of crap it can be, and move on.

<div class="text-justify">
<blockquote>Now that we are less than a week removed from emigration day, the countdown has never been more real as it is today. Every single day our house produces more and more echoes because of emptier walls and yesterday when we gave away our big living room carpet, the walls seem to be constantly repeating whatever noise we make, even if it were whispers. I never realized that even a carpet on the floor helps to soften the echoing sounds in a room. It's annoying as well as satisfying at the same time because, with every item that disappears from our walls or floor, we are one step closer to our actual moving day.

<blockquote>Hello friends of Hive Food! I have read that we are partying here in this community since we are currently more than a thousand hivers! It is really good to see how it grows day by day with quality content, and what I like most about this community is that it is forged by a group of Spanish-speaking hivers ♥ I am a patriotic and Latin girl so these little things fill me with pride really haha ​​I invite you to join if you haven't already! Anyway, today is a holiday here on hive and it is also in Argentina! Since today May 25th we celebrate the day of the homeland! because on May 25, 1810, the people rebelled against Spanish rule, demanding the resignation of the Viceroy, taking power and creating the First Board. That would be the first step towards our independence! So today we all wear our rosettes, we listen to the anthem, puffing out our chests, and of course we eat delicious haha ​​usually on a national day one gets together with his family to eat locro, I'm on a diet so I skip the locro ( Much to my regret) and I went directly to the traditional dessert: handkerchiefs. The most classic dessert is actually cupcakes, which are exactly the same but in a different way, so don't worry and keep reading the post that I explain everything well later.

<blockquote>I've dreamed of a tiny house for probably 20 years now. But finances, for the most part, have prevented me from doing so yet (ironically, since you can save money once you're in one). Back in the day you couldn't finance a tiny, and by the time that was a thing, my credit was in the toilet (it used to be really good), so I would either never get approved or be paying extortionist interest rates. I think my credit score is "average" now, but my income is not steady so I still wouldn't be approved (the magic of "I can pay rent that is more than the mortgage would be but can't be approved for the mortgage," ahh, capitalism).

<blockquote>The human being is so complex, he has the capacity to be immensely bad, immensely good and half good and half bad. There are behaviors that leave much to be desired in terms of motherhood or fatherhood, I believe that both women and men can be wonderful parents and guides. However, it is the man who has been the protagonist of many stories of abandonment, abuse and bad fatherhood, which has led society to create a social stigma around fathers.
