I think you should find someone to talk to, get some exercise, eat healthy, and then revisit these ideas from a critical perspective.

To answer your question: No, that isn't the case for me. The singularity might be the end of the road for us - and that's not even a worst case. I don't think it's inevitable, I'm not sure it's likely, but it's definitely an interesting topic.

The pseudo religious proselytizing is the most boring part of the community.

I already do that, still have felt pretty miserable for a while. I often say this but if I just had to climb a mountain or do something very difficult to solve my problems, I would! There are definitely some people who just need a good smack on the ass but a lot of us have been trying pretty hard for a while. Of course, I always suggest to keep trying because honestly there is not much else one can do.

I agree completely. It's also problematic in the practical sense. It skewers perception, and compromises the community's ability to have nuanced discussions about these topics.
