Dear Linux desktop apps, you have full authorization to create a folder in my ~/.config directory, you are even invited to stuff your data in my ~/.local/share directory, and let's not forget about that ~/.cache y'all! Wunderbar! Much freedom!

So, now, please repeat after me:

👏 I 👏 SHALL 👏 NOT 👏 MAKE 👏 A 👏 FOLDER 👏 IN 👏 YOUR 👏 HOME 👏 DIRECTORY 👏

Thank you kindly

Ok, I have gone through the mandatory period of questioning my skills, experience, and existence as well as quitting design altogether for the recommended checks notes 8 times.

I think I'm finally ready to redesign my personal site.

It cannot be stressed enough how often indie titles are simply outclassing triple-A titles regularly now. Of course, they don't have the glitz of whatever the latest graphic technology is, but in terms of gameplay mechanics and story, they are just superior.

Dead Cells, The Long Dark, Hades, Halcyon 6, Hyperlight Drifter, Stardew Valley, and even No Man's Sky are examples of how gaming innovation is almost exclusively coming from indie houses the gaming juggernauts continue to release remake after watered-down remake.

There are a few big-budget exceptions like the aforementioned Death Stranding, but they are so rare these days.

my toxic gamer trait is buying and/or starting new games even though i haven’t finished the ones i’m already playing…

sorry not sorry infinite backlog of incomplete games 👀
