I've had this fantasy for a couple of years now, and it's not a serious fantasy but it is also not completely unserious.

When Occupy Wall Street first came about, I thought about how I'd like to interact with those kids (I'm 61).

Around that time I found a YouTube of The Heart Sutra that just captured me. I found saying the sutra in Sanskrit was an interesting experience, this is one of the oldest languages on earth and you can feel that when you speak it.

The only surprise is that the authorities in Chicago released the video of - anything. It doesn't show the actual shots fired into the back of Paul O'Neal, a kid who will never see his 19th birthday because the police body cams somehow failed to work. I know, amazing coincidence, isn't it?

Get down! Hands behind your back! You shot at us, mother------!"

My last video at Steven D Talks for this week. It discusses the fixation of the media on Trump's gaffes and the lack of coverage of evidence of Hillary and the DNC's misconduct as revealed by Wikileaks, and the numerous election fraud studies showing the likelihood Clinton benefited from numerous corrupt acts in the Democratic Party's 2016 primaries.

Opening Ceremonies at the 2016 Olympics in Rio are this evening at Maracana Stadium...even though we are already through two days of Soccer competition.

The show was produced by film director Fernando Meirelles (City of God).

I hope that the Opening Ceremony will be a drug for depression in Brazil.

Rumors are flying. Some of them are true.

Lots of samba and bossa nova. Lots of dancers. Mrs. Tom Brady, Brazilian super model Giselle Bundchen as the Girl from Ipanema.

Let's start from the top.

Donald Trump would be a disaster and an embarrassment for our country if he were elected president.

Shawn Lucas, the man who served process on the DNC (i.e., a copy of the complaint and other associated pleadings required by court rules) regarding a class action lawsuit alleging fraud against Bernie sanders contributors by the DNC and DWS, has been confirmed dead by Snopes.

I awoke very early this morning, from a bad dream. All I remember is that I was trying to protect someone and this Suicide Squad-type badass was going to waste us.

Uber drivers. Yard work. Baby sitting. Selling things on EBay.
These and much more can be classified as "gig" work. Jobs you would normally think of as work for people without skills and an education.
That was the old days.
