Having ongoing conversations with a recently-descended primate that needs 8 hours of daily unconsciousness and gets emotionally invested in the opinions of complete strangers sounds extremely depressing tbh.

I’m sure people would think many of the things you engage in are extremely depressing.

I know people for instance who could not think of anything more depressing than working with computers for a living. But hey, they do them and I do me. That’s the glory of things.

Already people staring at their phones all day is depressing. But I agree, this sounds even more depressing. But it's not a very big leap from where we stand as society today.
