Are ya winning son?
..and the original musical play from 1947. I guess the word 'brigadoon' was rolling around in my head for decades before recently viewing some other Scottish history videos; like [this one](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EMOiF_kuqUo). A bridge built around the 15th century over the Doon river. Anyway you can imaging the clumsy mispelling of the title foreshadows the clumsily writen Scottish stereotypes within the film. [Brigadoon 1954](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qpk9JNUDr9k). I enjoy doing a historical material analysis of old 20th century english film while also cringing my face off.

Im perpetually embarrassed after abusive work ethic since I was little. Everything was attacked and work was endless. Any tips on becoming more gregarious and less ashamed?

it takes time and logistics to meet and spend time with other people / make friends. Then it takes time and practice to learn making conversation smoothly and naturally. at times I had to force myself to go back to the very limited number of places I would find friends or new friendly people. US towns are not built for making friends, they lack some common social places that other countries do.
As for finding what interests you and doing something you love. idk everyone is different I tried many hobbies and crafts before finding things I like, such as DIY biking, kayaking, picnicking, music, computer and electric stuff. I try not to horde a bunch of bulky idle half-done projects cluttering up the place, but very happy with a few creative crafty projects that are useful like building a bike or sew fit a shirt or pants or alter an accessory.
Help find similar quotes? related: Voters upset choosing between the two US oligarch partys "get over yourselves" said Hillary. I thought this would make a good post if I could find 3 or 4 quotes from modern autocrat leaders, and also historic autocratic leaders. Iconic like Bush's "mission accomplished" and other poigniant sound-bite sentences that boils down the very essence on out-of-touch dictator lackeys just spewing utterly inane nothings at a time of historic social change.

It's like this. You give it access to a bunch of data like a text , variables , often a spreadsheet of text and numbers. Also live sensor data. Then uses algorithms to compare data and outputs useful things like text, images. Its also useful for pattern recognition and automating machines? Idk they called it something extremely dumb like 'synthetic thoughts' or 'cyber thinker' or 'fake smart thing' and havent shut up about it for 25 years now.

The real currency in north America is legal leverage and blackmail.

Title. Example. The nearby city uses prison labor to sweep homeless camps. The prison laborers cannot refuse to sweep or else it gets marked against their jail program terms. Simply put: city managers forcing prisoners to evict the homeless. Under capitalism every business and institution gradually replaces 'free trade' exchanges into blackmail bargaining at its core. The car repo and tow truck scam companies, pay-day loans, expanding of rent deposits and lease requirements, etc.

Its quite the thing to observe.
This was Al Capone. Prohibition era liquor seller. Mafia style gangster with henchmen and turf warfare that made everyone seek to put him in jail and stop the madness. But the local state or federal agencies couldn't nail him with anything because 1) They were buyers, sellers, and consumers of alcohol. Sugar cane plantation owners? 2) His gang of followers was intimidating. So they chose the next best thing for surface appearances of decorum and "rule of law". Which was to charge him with 'tax evasion' Its just funny how Trump, and the Bidens, Bush's, other ruling party oligarchs also profit from illegal trades, rackets, scandals, boondoggles, insider dealings, wars, etc. And they can't ever hold each other accountable because they are all complicit, would incriminate themselves. Curious. 
Speaking of local "farms" a friend says to me. They grow the hay and sell it just to cover cost of property tax, and to file as a farm. In other words just to own and sometimes buy more land. Growing a monopoly of unproductive land and also getting credit, subsidies, investments for being a smalltown "farmer". Neat trick.
These rafts are great. Every raft or canoe used is another car off the streets. And they'll get you into remote, vacant spots near water. Bottle recycling is another scam with few real applications for re-used plastic material that still eventually needs disposal. Its always a landfill. Car transport has crystalized into an expensive, gridlocked, toxic nightmare that makes the old disused murky waterways look appealing again. All the great powers of the world are united in keeping us perpetually dependent on oil and coal. Smart people should be testing new ways to escape this vampires castle. No one is coming to save us. Weather mule carts, sail boats, bikes, rafts, etc whichever works. Just start building the tools and networks today for any chance to see results in our lifetimes. Which brings me to "how feasible is water travel for me?" well its complicated. We want multiple trips a week to the city, up and down stream, through all seasons. Which means a dedicated raft or boat design to optimize local conditions. Paddle configuration, push pole through shallows & banks, wind usage or storm hazards. Live near the water or find suitable anchorage. Local laws. Maybe a 'part 2' is needed. Thanks. example: [Bottle raft](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Vg0PZKZ-y5g) , [Ton Le Sap lake](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e__weTGdEA8) , [towed shuttle punt](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqd_BxodRNM) check online for local waterway maps.
