Post 2020 and the Covid19 epidemic the states couldn't decide on how to isolate, lock-down, and re-open. So they all split into "regional state medical associations" or something like that i don't remember exactly. This was not state secession or 'semi-autonomous region' recognition etc. But it was a clear and recent example how material situations can suddenly motivate or force a re-organization on national institutional scales. To spring-board off this we can theorize; if there was another "disagreement" between states on how to react to a new situation (medical or other) that they would make similar moves, such as re-organizing into state coalitions, or perhaps smaller break-away regions. Lead by whoever is sitting leadership at the time.

..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. 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. I enjoy doing a historical material analysis of old 20th century english film while also cringing my face off.

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.

These call centers are run like crooked gambling houses run by the mob. The local cops look the other way, take bribes. I've heard one actually got raided but that may be a rare occurrence.

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.

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.
