inSpent $140 on a 10 day pass at a coworking spot in Denver and got zero work done
Man, $140 for ten days is not even a bad price, that is like 14 bucks a day. I gotta push back here. The problem might not be the spot, it might be that you showed up without a plan. A hot desk spot is a shared space, so of course people talk in the kitchen and take calls in booths. That is kind of the whole point of a coworking place. If you need dead silence, you are never gonna find it in a shared office, no matter how much you scout it first. My advice is cheaper than what you paid too: figure out what you actually need before you buy. If it is quiet, go to the library from day one and save the cash. If it is people and energy, then a coworking spot works. You paid to find out which one you are, and now you know.

inA guy on the Eagle Rock loop told me at mile 14 to flip my map upside down, and he was right
Sounds like how getting help works everywhere, someone outside your mess sees it clear.

inMy uncle who digs at a site in Turkey told me looters hit the same trench twice in a month and it changed how I see museum pieces
Man, that part about losing the dirt layers is what gets me, because the object itself is almost the least important thing. I read a piece a while back about how looters in Iraq and Syria would dig a hole, grab the good stuff, and then backfill it, so archaeologists show up years later and have no clue anything was ever there or what went with what. It's like ripping pages out of a book and burning them just to sell one word. And yeah, that coin in the case might be the only thing that survived, but everything around it, who made it, who used it, what it sat next to, all that context is just gone forever. Your uncle's got every right to be mad.
