Sometimes cooking can be journey, a chill journey for most of the time, but in the case of @dandays that journey is as extreme as it gets, you think making hummus is a piece of cake _{of course not, it is hummus, not cake} well you gotta think again because this post will make you make hummus while singing, memeing, bird-watching, tarantula-slaying and what not, because this is EXTREME HUMMUS MAKING!!!

Now is story time, and what a story I have stored for you today, our author @internutter wrote a tale that will make you feel a lot, but not fuzzy feeling no, the ones you'll encounter come from a more disturbing place when you read the fall from grace of our protagonist, will you fear for him or feel satisfaction for the outcome? Why don't you read the story first!

This place was an outrage. Roman's first thought as he returned to consciousness was that someone was going to pay for being so loud in his vicinity. It didn't matter to him that the someone was a baby. It mattered that the baby was interrupting his rest. There was other hubbub. People talking. People clattering around with things. He opened his eyes to see dingy grey foam tiles in the ceiling. Who had under-bid for this disgusting decor. - @internutter

Our author has been writing in the platform for a couple of years now and his development in this field is in plain sight, day after day after day he takes on new challenges and writing prompts to hone his skills and you can tell by the quality of this story, a tragedy, a fall from grace and a wake up call, all at the same time.

As a kid I was always fascinated by new things. I was happy to explore something new. I was the kind of kid that would disassemble things to see how they work. I would sneak into the garage and use my dad's tools to work on little projects. This behavior stayed with me while growing up. I teached myself how to use Photoshop. I experimented with video editing and learned how to program. This made it hard for me to find out what my passion in life was. Until I figured out that my passion is learning new things and acquiring new skills. This is still with me today. I started to travel to find new and unique experiences every day. Now I am sharing those experiences with the world. I travel in a unique way. I don't follow tourist routes or your typical travel guide. I meet locals and have them show me something unique and cultural. I create my own story. - @beforeyoupack

Outstanding and inspiring this author took the life of travel because life is a journey for him and in this post you can see the essence of that way of life as well as in all his content, that are accompanied too with gorgeous pictures and the easy-going sense of humor very characteristic of him.

Achievements can come in many forms, shapes and colors for our author came in form of gaming glory when she finally managed to reach the end game maps of Path of Exile called The Epilogue _EPIC! now she has to make a desition of joining a guild to progress faster or enjoy the rest of the content the spiritual successor of Diablo has to offer by herself!

The PoE communities are great and everyone is so enthused by how much you can learn and do via the game. A lot of passionate folks who play it. It's definitely converted me from non-gamer to PoE-obsessed! - @linnyplant

You won't believe it because her content took a sharp turn to hard PoE spam a few months ago when she became obsessed with the game, but this gamer mom used to make posts about anything that crossed her mind, but now the ugly monsters from Path of Exile have captured her, now it is our chosie to save her or join her! _{Join sounds like a lot of fun btw!}

Lastly we have @nupulse with a sick song with a lit beat, it is a remix made by Billy Korg of the song Crash & Burn by Juxta feat. The Turtle Project a track that will make you feel like those techno rappers back in the 2000's and some lyrics that still throw a good punch

@nupulse has dedicated to uplift, support and showcase all of those underground but hardworking artists out there, but not just musicians they do the same with gamers, photographers designers everything they see worthy of being know by all of us in the platform. _{yeah, just like Curie, perhaps that's why I like them so much}
