Also, Gamer’s block. You want to play. You finally have the time to play. You have a pile of games that you’ve been wanting to get through, but you just can’t devote the time to it. It’s like a form of procrastination, except instead of procrastinating about chores/responsibilities, you’re procrastinating about your free time. In a way, some books/games kind of become a new “responsibility”, in that once you start them, you may feel obligated to continue. So then it becomes one more thing you “have” to do.

All first world problems, maybe not as high-stakes as Kanye’s problems, but problems nonetheless.

I feel this one hard.

In my mind, before I can play a game, I need to have lots of time, nothing else that I'm doing later, and the perfect amount of energy to really concentrate on it. Unfortunately, life has gotten busy, so I'm trying to get more comfortable playing for 20min here, 20min there instead of scrolling on my phone.

I partially solved this by getting a Steam Deck and playing on my commutes. I can't say I've been plowing through my backlog, but I'm certainly making progress!
