Post something worth sharing

It doesn't have to be philosophically profound, just something you found worthwhile.

Our European friends and any dance afficianados will likely already recognize this man, but he made a huge splash on YouTube and then began to be recognized for kicking off the electro-swing craze.

He developed his style and taught himself through years of online tutorials, and develop he did. Has a very hypnotic rhythm and fluidity that is hard to turn away from.

After commercial success (featured in multiple commercials by large European companies), he seems to have gone to ground about a year ago. Maybe he's taking time off and a world tour, or holed up on some desert isle, or simply fallen in love and taking time to live it out of the limelight.

Alternatively, he could have become a wasting addict after his success.

But, don't let that keep you from enjoying this man in motion. What a joy.

I believe this was his first big hit online, filmed in his apartment:

A vid from four years later as his fame began to take off:

Ach, du lieber! Such skill.

wow, this really got me, i was listening to an interview with a 10 yr old girl who was in the uvaldi shooting. she had seen her teacher killed - all head shots, and seen some of her friends killed as she was on the floor beside a friend with blood all around her on the floor. she had enough sense about her to get blood from the floor and rub it all over her to make it look like she was dead. she didnt get shot. im sure i would not have thot of that when i was 10 and maybe not now at age 69. you go girl. that is something she will never get over, and im sure have flashbacks the rest of her life. the shooter will probably just get life , thats not right!

Our problem is we discuss our problems as if they can all be solved with memes and inspirational quotes about hard work, determination or rugged individualism. This isn't scientific, it's a Disney fairy tale.

Race isn't a black problem that needs white solutions, it's a white problem that needs black solutions.

Since sex crimes are a big theme in HT this week here's something I've thought of as an actual advocate for victims and activist pushing for tougher penalties for sex crimes....

The inverse of charging an offender with "failure to report new address" is charging the state for "failure to monitor a known offender."
