About the author’s struggle to find someone among his friends to speak to about collapse. He says, "Most of all, I want someone to hug me and say, “I know. I’m scared, too.” Lots of good links in there for further reading.

You’re very welcome. I’ll be very glad if it helps even one person to better look after themselves and maybe avoid falling into depressive nihilism.
Just because things are pretty fucked up and may get worse doesn’t mean that it’s already Game Over or that there is nothing good and worthwhile in the world. As long as there is a human alive, we’re still in the game and have opportunity to make things better, even if just slightly. And, considering how young our species is compared to our estimates of the age of the universe and it’s incomprehensible vastness, it’s unlikely that we’re alone in the cosmos or will be the last intelligent species to exist (or likely even the last intelligent species in this hunk of rock). If we don’t make it, which I hope is not the eventuality, maybe we can leave behind something to bring some joy to any who might come after us.
