Living under the pressure of the performance society: Students, smart drugs, pressure and nootropica
Author: @aximot
Curator: @bethalea
-=- This is a well researched and formatted post about the difficulties our society is having with ‘smart drugs’ and why some people, students especially, feel they may need them.
I was fascinated by the neuroscience and drug reactions in the brain the author details. This post is well worth the time invested to read it and I truly appreciate the author’s ability to ask questions without judgement. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts! -=-
STEEM 101_1: WHAT IS STEEM?
Author: @motoengineer
Curator: @juvyjabian
-=-
The author @motoengineer wanted to explain Steem to those confused new Steemians and possibly those who have not heard about it. This is a video post which aims to crystallize Steemit so that it can understood clearly by everyone. There are lots of videos and tutorials out there, there's even a faq page at the site itself but the author decided to share his understanding as clear as it can be which can be easily understood by the viewers.
To those who are new to Steem Blockchain and wanted to understand more about it, check out this post. -=-
It Is Time For A Green Island, Taiwan Adventure
Author: @exploretraveler
Curator: @juvyjabian
-=- How would you love to visit a small island in the Pacific Ocean? The author @exploretraveler shared its experience when they visited Green Island located in Taiwan. The place is still part of the Republic of China and was created by volcanic activity took place in the past. The island has so much to offer and one of it is its plentiful seafoods which can be purchase in their market. It could be a good place to unwind and relax and be free. -=-
New Puppy vs Rescuing a Shelter Dog? Easy Answer...
Author: @beautifulbullies
Curator: @nicnas
-=- @beautifulbullies is one of those writers that you just know you will find something good to read. This article is on a subject that she finds very special to her heart. But it is something important to me as well. What is it?
It is about rescuing shelter dogs instead of buying puppy breeders dogs (or puppy mill dogs). I think this is very important. But not only just for dogs but for any pet you are considering adopting. Too many animals that need homes are being put-down. This is very sad and there are actually a lot of new laws going into affect to change this. In California is will now be illegal for pet stores to sell bred animals. They would have to offer animal shelter pets. Thanks for spreading the word @beautifulbullies. -=-
Insomniac Film Festival #83: Thor Ragnarok
Author: @rvgenaille
Curator: @bethalea
-=- I am a big fan of the Marvel Superhero movies and am looking forward to seeing this one. I loved the perspective @rvgenaille gives us as a self-described Indigenous filmmaker. I enjoyed hearing from him how Taika Waititi’s style was different from the previous filmmakers and enjoyed his description of the film. He was able to describe the film thoughtfully and clearly without giving spoilers, which is pure brilliance!
Thank you for your post @rvgenaille! -=-

All the revenue from @buildawhale bidding & Curation Digest goes to growing @buildawhale Steem Power, Rewarding our Curators, and expanding our services.
Donate Steem Power
Donating steem power to @buildawhale or @buildawhaletrail allows us to provide larger votes and will increase our trail service to further reward authors featured in our Curation Digest.
