HiveDiscoMod Curation Highlights June 10, 2025

The smell hits me first; garlic and diesel fumes mixing with some sweet something, maybe plantain frying somewhere in the distance. It was a Sunday. The sun had us weighed down with both palms. The ATM receipt is still in my pocket now flattened, but I can feel the rim of it against my fingers ...

IMAGE GENERATED USING META AI I felt in her soft whispers, something louder than what had just leaked out of her mouth during that live meeting. Was Mrs Lizzy truly pregnant? The screen would not lie about the swollen cheeks, nor the way she breathed, as if struggling with each inhalation. Would it? ...

The power had blinked twice that morning, after two weeks of power outage, when the whole village had been plunged into total darkness. Chuka sat on a bench, the laptop on a rickety table, belonged to his friend Erasmus. Even the network was bad and he feared that he might not be able to make it to the zoom meeting that morning. He was tensed up no doubt and severally he had felt like giving up, just turning his back and walking away from it all, but he just couldn't, this could be his only chance ...

A pleasant afternoon, Hive community! Here are some bits of my story, welcome to my intro blog! First of all, I am Alexander Quiñones and I am 21 years old. I'm an incoming second year college student taking a Bachelor of Technology and Livelihood Education Major in Home Economics at Cebu Normal University— it's a state funded higher education institution in the Philippines ...

In my opinion, when reflecting on this topic, I think that there is more and more talk about technology, artificial intelligence and robots, this is a topic that is already part of our daily lives. If we look closely and we have many examples of this, there are already machines that clean the house, cook, iron and even take care of the children, which I think is a real exaggeration, because the human being is increasingly losing his essence. Many people believe that in the future robots will do practically everything for us. It may seem like a practical and even convenient idea, but honestly, I do not agree with that at all, I think this situation is excessive ...

Hola amigos de @Holos Lotus Nunca imaginé que esta Iniciativa 6: El error que redefinió mi vida, en Las Cosas de Iris, resonaría con tanta fuerza a pesar de contar con menos participaciones con respecto a las ediciones anteriores. Reconocer nuestros errores no siempre es sencillo; a veces, ni siquiera los identificamos como tales, ocultos tras un velo que los disfraza de aciertos o casualidades. Los errores rara vez se cometen con plena conciencia de sus consecuencias. Pueden nacer de la inocencia, de la maldad ajena, o simplemente de ese cruce imprevisible entre destino y decisiones ...

Como les comentaba ayer, la Sombra es aquella parte de nuestro ser que es inconsciente, nublada, oculta incluso para nosotros mismos. Es allí donde reposan nuestros anhelos más profundos, nuestros traumas y dudas, los programas que determinan nuestro comportamiento y, en general, todo lo que no compone nuestra existencia. Es también en donde se encuentran todas las funciones y reacciones automáticas. La relación entre la consciencia y la inconsciencia es sumamente desigual, al menos dos tercios de nuestro ser están sumidos en la oscuridad, así que uno de los principales objetivos del trabajo de auto exploración es integrar poco a poco esos espacios oscuros ...

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog : ) You know that feeling that there are days when the universe decides to test our physical fitness? Well, the day I visited Arnóia Castle, in Celorico de Basto, was one of those moments. I, who thought I was in good shape after a few gentle walks on Sunday, was faced with a very different and steep reality. Very steep ...

Hi everyone, how are you, I hope you are having a nice day and are in good condition wherever you are. On this occasion, I went back around the small forest as usual to look for small animal species, but after only a few minutes walking through this small forest, I did not find any insect species for almost half an hour I was there, but it was not in vain that I found wild flowers that looked very beautiful and graceful, and you can see some portraits of these wild flowers below. This wild flower looks very beautiful and graceful with a purple color that looks so attractive and amazing, and the color is very bright and from the petals it looks so beautiful and graceful, at the end of this rainy season I saw some wild flowers blooming and especially today the weather is very bright so it looks very beautiful because each flower has its own characteristics, and you can see it below and above some portraits of wild flowers that look very beautiful, and I hope you like it. Then I continued to explore this small forest and a few moments later I found a beautiful flower species that was growing abundantly in the wild grass bushes, and at that time I immediately approached it to see it up close and while holding the smartphone camera and immediately I took several different angles of the picture and it looked very beautiful and graceful, and on this occasion I will again show some portraits of this wild flower and I hope you like it ...

This morning I got up early and headed to the seaside with my bicycle. I wanted to meet the sunrise, but even early in the morning there was fog rolling in from the north. The sky didn't even turn a little pink, but despite that the morning was beautiful and it was a real pleasure to be outside on this June day. I wanted to continue towards Sarafovo, but the fog was getting thicker and there was almost no visibility in that direction ...

I joined my clients on a cycling tour with Sobek Adventure in Kedewatan, Ubud. We started by cycling through the village roads, and right away, I noticed how peaceful it was compared to the city. No loud traffic or chaos—just quiet paths lined with trees and traditional houses. Along the way, we passed chickens roaming freely, dogs walking calmly along the roadside, and locals riding motorbikes, probably heading to the market or the rice fields ...

Hello there Friends, Happy Monday evening once again and thank you for your visit! This is post 47 in the cyclingcommunity and last week started with some promise, but... On Friday I pulled a "hamstring muscle" (yesterday "I thought it was "Sciatica") in my left leg so I have "had" to take a little break. I am hoping to be in better shape tomorrow hoping ...

This is my entry for the monomad challenge hosted and curated by @monochromes I was so happy to be able to see this kind of spider again, and as long as I remember this is my second encounter with this species of spider. This is such a cute spider, and you will see why in the following images. This one is a type of spider which will stay still when in danger, and during my first and my second encounter this time, this little guy hardly moved when I took the photos of him. The name of this spider is most likely to be Cyrtarachne inaequalis ...

A few days ago, my oldest daughter when fishing with her cousins on their boat in the local river... but the little one wasn't keen to do it. They didn't have enough life vests anyway, so she wouldn't have been able to even if she wanted to! Anyway, that meant that she was going to spend some quality time with her parents ...

Small but stunning. I found a blessing that felt so peaceful behind the beauty of the plants in my mini garden. I started to focus on gardening in my mini garden in March. To be precise, at the end of March ...

Latin Name Observation date Location Dark Glassy Tiger 2 Juny 2025 Central Aceh ,Bireun, Indonesia on this very beautiful occasion I am back with you here to show some pictures that I took this time I took a photo of a butterfly that looks very beautiful, it has a color like a tiger and I really like to see it. and don't forget I always hope that everyone is always healthy and always successful for all my friends wherever you are. I found this butterfly I can be in the forest because it is one of the nesting places for various types of beetles and your methods are one of them like the book I am giving now. I took the picture a few days ago the place was saved because the feeling accidentally entered the ocean my goal was only to hunt various types of beetles and insects and even more unique things on my journey at that time little by little ...

I didn't expect to be a part off the photoessay2025 challenge. But sometimes you are getting creative when u least expect it. I started to get the ideas when my toddler started playing with her Play Doh. I was opening the clay cans for her, when I saw that the pink clay was still alive and unharmed ...

(Eng) Hello, photography community, Today I want to share an experience that pushed me to the edge one of those adventures I truly enjoy. Everything that involves extreme sports and mountains holds a very special place in my heart. This time, I had the chance to join my good friend Arturo, better known as “El Cholo,” a passionate downhill biker. I live right at the foot of Cerro Centinela, located in the district of La Molina, in the eastern part of Lima, Peru ...
