The Flood / Re: How often do you feel like nearly everything you do is a wasted effort?

I used to. I'm living on my own terms now, so things are falling into place a lot better for me. As for people not listening? Yes to that too. I don't speak so factually in the real world, there's little authority in my voice because I'm not out to control how anyone lives, if it gets brushed off then that's fine. But if I want to have an actual conversation with someone, then I need to be talking to different kinds of people.
With the shift in my life came a new group of people whom are far more considerate to who I am as opposed to the overall corporate atmosphere I live in (but am in no way affiliated with). It's brought me to a better place, especially when it comes to dealing with people I'm on a completely different frequency with. People can be great, people can be fucks, in either case there's a good reason for it. It's better to accept that rather than to hit your head against the wall over it. People can romanticize about how opposites attract and all that (in terms of friendships or relationships or whatever), but nothing beats being with 'your' people.
In short, you are who you are dude. I wouldn't try to appeal who you are to other people or worry about it too much. If you want to talk and to be heard, start talking to the right group. I'm not saying this in a "fuck the world it's shit" stance, but more in line with finding people you resonate a bit better with. And in short, sometimes it is a wasted effort trying to get through to some people, but understand that to a differing extent, you're like that too with other people whether you see it or not. We all are.
If something's not working for you, change it. If any person has any authority over something, it's their own life.
